The Battery Charger
This section explains how to choose a location for the battery charger and install it. It also explains how to insert
and remove a battery pack.
Positioning the Battery Charger
The battery charger can be placed on a desk, or it can be mounted on a wall. Before you install the battery
charger, note the following considerations:
•Locate the battery charger within 5 feet (1.6 m) of a properly grounded electrical
outlet that is not controlled by an on/off switch.
•If your communications system uses an uninterruptible power supply, such as a
backup generator, you may want to connect the battery charger to that power
supply.
•Do not locate the battery charger where it will be exposed to direct sunlight or
water.
WARNING:
!
The rechargeable battery pack may contain elements that are harmful to
the environment (for example, nickel). Do not burn or puncture the
battery. As with other batteries of this type, burning or puncturing could
release toxic material that could cause injury. Do not dispose of it in
household garbage. For information about recycling or proper disposal,
consult your local solid waste (garbage) collection or disposal
organization.
