CHARGING light on the panel adjacent to the battery, will indicate the battery charging
status. See the CHARGING LIGHT STATUS TABLE for a detailed explanation of what is
happening. When a battery is fully charged, the green READY light on the panel
adjacent to it will light. (approximately 4 hours for COM430BP batteries and 2.5
hours for HS30 batteries) It can then be placed back into a COMMUNICATOR .
®
CAUTION: Do not remove batteries from the charger until the green READY light is
lit, or the charger will reset and the charge cycle will begin again.
