compartment. Be certain to follow the instruction written on the label on the battery pack. Installing the battery pack incorrectly will prevent the unit from operating.

4) Replace the battery compartment door.

BATTERY LEVEL AND

LOW BATTERY ALERT

This unit has a battery level meter on the display to indicate the status of the batteries. When the batteries in the unit are very low, the battery level

meter icon will flash. Replace the alkaline

batteries immediately or if you are using the NiMH battery pack, you must recharge the battery in order to continue using the radio.

Warning! To avoid the risk of personal injury or property damage from fire or electrical shock, only use the Uniden accessories specifically designated for this product.

USING THE CHARGING CRADLE

If you use the rechargeable NiMH battery pack, two(four) GMR1058 radios can be charged by using the charging cradles.

Make sure to turn the radio OFF before placing the radio in the charging cradle. Otherwise the battery level meter icon won’t indicate properly.

1)Connect the AC adapter (# AD-0001) to DC IN 9V jack and to a standard 120V AC wall outlet.

2)Set the charging cradle on the desk or tabletop, and place the radio in the charging cradles with the keypad facing forward.
