Battery Information 7

The MTX•LS radio receives its power from a rechargeable nickel- cadmium (NiCd) battery as listed in the accessories section. These batteries are a safe, dependable power source for your radio. Proper care of the battery will ensure its effectiveness and allow for peak radio performance.

Recharging Nickel-Cadmium Batteries

Recharge the battery before use to ensure optimum capacity and performance. The battery was designed specifically to be used with a Motorola charger. Charging in non-Motorola equipment may lead to battery damage and void the battery warranty.

NOTE: Note: When charging a battery that is attached to the radio, turn the radio off to ensure a full charge.

	!	Do not attempt to change or charge the
		battery in a hazardous atmosphere. See
		Safety Standards section of this manual.
WARNING

Charging Temperature

The battery should be at room temperature (about 77°) whenever possible. Charging a cold battery (below 50° F) may result in leak- age of electrolyte and ultimately, in failure of the battery. Charging a hot battery (above 95° F) results in reduced discharge capacity, af- fecting the performance of the radio. MTX•LS rapid-rate battery chargers contain a temperature-sensing circuit to ensure that the battery is charged within these temperature limits.
