4.3 Recharging the batteries

Two types of battery chargers are available. Each one is able to
charge NiMH batteries without removing them from the radio:
• Standard optional wall battery charger - this is the least
expensive and it is used with the AA batteries and the battery
pack supplied. For further details, refer to par. 4.3.a.
• Desktop battery charger - for greater flexibility of use the
transceiver is simply slotted inside the battery charger. It can only
be used with the battery pack . For details consult par. 4.3.b.
If the batteries are new it is necessary to charge them fully before
using them. For subsequent recharges please refer to par. 4.4.

2 New batteries do not immediately allow for maximum duty, as
they must be "run in" through at least 3 complete cycles of charge/
discharge.
! Use the battery charger only if you have installed 3
rechargeable NiMH batteries. Never attempt to charge other
types of batteries (particularly alkaline) - doing so may cause
explosion and/or personal injury.
! Do not overcharge the batteries! The charging process does
not stop automatically even when the batteries have been
fully charged. Do not forget therefore, to remove the charger
from the transceiver as soon as the batteries are charged.
! In order to get the best out of your batteries for subsequent
recharges consult par 4.4. Also consult the warning relative
to the use of batteries in par. 2.2.b.

1) Ensure the radio is turned off (it must remain off for the entire
period of recharge).
2) Carefully lift the rubber flap on the right side of the transceiver,
slipping a fingernail into the centre left part, and rotating it towards
the right, as indicated in the figure.
3) Insert the plug at the end of the battery charger cable into the
MIC/CHG socket (the lower, smaller one), and then connect the
battery charger to an AC power source.
4) Once the batteries are charged (see table in the next page for
charging times), disconnect the battery charger from the AC
power source, and then disconnect the transceiver from the
battery charger.
5) Return the rubber flap to its place.
