General Operation
Do not expose the charger base to high level RF signals while a battery is being charged
because this may cause a charger fuse to blow (especially in the UHF range). Radios
programmed for SMARTNET/SmartZone operation, for example, may affiliate while in
the charger which causes them to automatically key. Therefore, do not leave radio power
on while charging as described above.

Remove the battery and slide the belt clip into the slot on the battery as shown below. To
remove the clip, simply slide it out. It is held in place by the chassis when the battery is
