Inserting the radio into the vehicle charger
Warning When the portable radio is used inside a vehicle, radio performance is degraded. Use a
mobile radio for all critical communications. If the portable radio must be left switched on while it is
in the charger, removing the radio from the charger will improve radio performance. Check your
local regulations about using a portable radio in a vehicle.
1. Place the radio in the charger with the battery attached.
2. Firmly press the retention bar towards the radio. If the larger battery (such as
the IS/NI battery) is attached to the radio, there will be an audible click as the
catches engage. If the smaller battery is attached to the radio, there will be
two audible clicks as the catches engage. If the catches do not engage,
remove the radio. Press once firmly on the release bar, then try again.

2. Place just a battery in the charger, or a radio with a battery attached (desktop charger or 6-way
