BATTERY INDICATOR
When turned ON, the battery indicator on the display lets you know approximately how much battery life is remaining. When turned OFF, the battery indicator will appear and blink only when the battery voltage level is low.
When the battery voltage becomes too low while transmitting, the transceiver stops transmitting and a tone sounds until you release the PTT switch. Recharge or replace the battery pack at this time.
