Refer to Table 1 and 2 on pages 10 and 11 for an estimation of the duration involved for charging the battery pack.

Remove the radio / battery from the charger when charging is complete.

NOTE

The LED on the charger lights up continuously dur- ing charging. For the Standard Desktop Charger, it is red for the whole charging period. For the Quick Charge Desktop Charger, it changes from yellow (before charging begins) to red (during charging) to green (when charging is completed).
