Setting Up the Hardware

Install the Battery Pack

Your radio uses the supplied Lithium Ion battery pack. To install the Lithium Ion battery pack:

1.Remove the belt clip if installed.

2.Use a screwdriver to turn the battery compartment screw counterclockwise and then lift up and remove the battery cover.

3.Line up the new battery’s connector with the jack inside the battery compartment (the connector only fits one way).

4.Push the connector in firmly. Tug on the battery wires gently to make sure you have a good connection.

5.Before replacing the battery cover, check the rubber seal located on the under side of the cover; make sure that the seal is set in the groove and that there is no foreign matter under the seal.

## Note: If the rubber seal appears warn, nicked, or dried out, you must replace it. New seals are available through the Parts Department (see the cover page for contact information).

6.Replace the battery compartment cover. Tighten the screw securely.
