INSTALLATION OF ACCESSORIES

BATTERY CHARGING

If the battery has never been used, or its charge is depleted, it may be charged by connect- ing the NC-88Overnight Battery Charger, as shown in the illustration, to the EXT DC jack. If only 12 ~ 16 Volt DC power is available, the optional E-DC-5BDC Cable (with its cigarette lighter plug) or E-DC-6DC Cable (plug and wire only) may also be used for charging the battery.

A fully-discharged pack will be charged completely in 10 hours. Disconnect the NC-88from the EXT DC jack and the AC line outlet.

E-DC-6

Important Note

The NC-88is not designed to power the transceiver for operation (reception or trans- mission).

Do not leave the NC-88connected to the transceiver for continuous periods in excess of 24 hours. Long term overcharging can degrade the Ni-MH battery pack and signifi- cantly shorten its useful life.

Please be advised that the NC-88may contribute noise to TV and radio reception in the immediate vicinity, so we do not recommend its use adjacent to such devices.

LOW BATTERY INDICATION

As your battery discharges during use, the voltage will gradually become lower. When the battery voltage is becoming too low for reliable operation,

the “” icon will blink on the LCD display, indicating that the battery pack must be recharged before further use.

Avoid recharging Ni-MH batteries before the “”indicator is

observed, as this can degrade the charge capacity of your Ni-MH battery pack.
