PREPARATION

CHARGING THE

BATTERY PACK

The MTX-103 operates on a built-in re- chargeable battery pack (supplied). You must charge the battery pack with the supplied battery charger before you use it the first time and when BAT lights steadily.

You can charge the battery pack while it is detached from or while it is at- tached to the transceiver.

To attach the battery pack, slide it onto the transceiver until the latch clicks.

To remove the battery pack, push the battery pack latch in the direction of the arrow, then slide the battery pack off the transceiver.

Follow these steps to charge the bat- tery pack.

Caution: Do not use the transceiver while the charger is connected.

1.If the battery pack is attached to the transceiver, make sure VOL- UME is turned fully counterclock- wise so the transceiver is off.

2.Pull out the CHG PWR jack plug on the bottom of the battery pack. Plug the charger’s barrel plug into the CHG PWR jack, then connect the charger to a standard AC out- let.

Note: Charging time is 14 to 16 hours.
