Charging the batteries

Your GXT255 is equipped to allow using a rechargeable NiMH battery pack (not included) which can be recharged by an A/C Charger/Adaptor (not included) through the MIC Jack of the radio, or using a Desktop Charger (not included). Batteries must be charged when the low battery icon flashes on the display.

Initial charge time is 24 hours with a charge time of 8 – 12 hours thereafter.

For maximum battery life, we recommend charging the batteries when the low battery indicator comes on.

Remove the radios from the charger when the charge time expires. Accessories: CA-1410D. Wall adapter for charging through the MIC jack.

To charge through the MIC Jack :

-Connect the AC Adaptor/Charger into an A/C Wall Outlet.

-Insert the Adaptor/Charger jack into the MIC Jack of the radio found at the side of the unit.

To charge through a Desktop Charger:

-Connect the AC Adaptor into an A/C Wall outlet.
