BATTERY INFORMATION Charging Operation The battery is not charged at the factory, please charge it before use. Charge the battery for the first time after purchase or extended storage (more than 2 months) may not bring the battery to its normal operating capacity. After repeating fully charge/discharge cycle for two or three times, the operating capacity will reach the best performance. The battery life is over when its operating time decreases even though it is fully and correctly charged.
BATTERY INFORMATION ▲▲ Do not recharge the battery if it is already fully charged. This may shorten the life of the battery or damage the battery. ▲▲ Do not charge the battery or transceiver if it is damp. Dry it before charging to avoid danger. WARNING: When keys or ornamental chains and other electric metals contact with the battery terminals, the battery may cause damage or hurt bodies.
BATTERY INFORMATION NOTE: When charging a power-on transceiver equipped with battery, the LED will not turn into green to show the full charge status. Only when turn off the transceiver, the LED can indicate normally. Because when the transceiver is power on, it would consumes energy, the charger cannot detect when battery has been fully charged, the charger will charge battery in voltage consumption and fail to indicate correctly. 5.
BATTERY INFORMATION Charging Prompt 1.Self-examination: When charging, ORANGE light twinkles for 1 second and goes out. That means the charger has passed its self-examination and it can charge the battery normally. If the light remains orange or the red light twinkles, which means the charger can not pass its self-examination or charge the battery. 2.
