Antenna Installation

Fasten the antenna to the radio by turning the antenna clockwise into the receptacle on top of the radio.

Installing and Removing the Battery Pack

To attach the battery pack, hold the radio face down in your hand and position the guides of the battery in line with the radio guide rails. Slide the battery upward until a click is heard. To remove the battery pack, hold the radio face down in your hand and push the battery latch button located in the upper right hand corner of the battery pack. Hold the battery latch button down, and slide the radio battery in a downward direction. Gently lift the battery pack away from the base of radio when it is free from the radio guide rails.

Push upward on belt clip until a click is heard. To remove the clip, push and hold the release button located at the top of the belt clip. Slide the clip away from the belt clip holder.

Battery Charging and Care

Before initial operation, use the provided charger to completely charge the radio battery pack. Remove the charger base and power supply from the packaging, and plug in the power supply's DC connector into a jack on the back of the charging base. Plug the AC power cord into any standard 110V AC outlet.

To charge a battery while attached to a radio, simply place the radio into the front charging well. The charger will identify the battery condition, and then automatically initiate a charge mode - rapid or top-off / trickle.

To charge a battery removed from the radio, place the battery into the rear charging well. Again, the charger will identify the battery condition, and automatically rapid charge or top-off / trickle charge the battery pack. Note the color of the LED charge indicators: red for rapid charge cycle, green for the top-off / trickle charge cycle.
