Helpful Tips
Conventional Fuel Gauge Symbol
A flashing fuel gauge symbol (
b) is displayed only when the
battery voltage drops to low level. In this case, replace the battery
with a fully charged one.
Smart Fuel Gauge Symbol
Note: Smart battery will be available at a future date.
Consult the Smart Battery manual. All conditions must be met for a
battery to be classified as a “Smart Battery.” When your radio has a
Smart Battery installed, the fuel gauge symbol is always displayed.
Replace the battery with a fully charged one when the fuel gauge
shows the lowest level.
Battery Recycling and Disposal
Nickel-cadmium (NiCd) rechargeable batteries can be recycled.
However, recycling facilities may not be available in all areas. Under
various U.S. state laws and the laws of several other countries, NiCd
batteries must be recycled and cannot be disposed of in landfills or
incinerators. Contact your local waste management agency for
specific requirements and information in your area.
Motorola fully endorses and encourages the recycling of NiCd
batteries. In the U.S. and Canada, Motorola participates in the
nationwide Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC)
program for NiCd battery collection and recycling. Many retailers and
dealers participate in this program.
Gauge shows: if the battery’s charge is:
b
71% to 100% full
j
41% to 70%
k
11% to 40%
l
10% or less (at 10%, the gauge begins flashing)
