Charging the Battery
You can charge a battery alone or/and a battery attached to a radio.
Charging a battery attached to a radio can be done with the radio either turned on or off. The battery
charges faster when the radio is turned off.
IMPORTANT: Motorola approved chargers provide optimal performance. Other chargers may
fail to fully charge or reduce the life of the battery.
Prerequisites:
Do not charge the battery in a hazardous area.
IMPORTANT: Do not connect a radio without a battery to the charger.
Procedure:
1 Connect the charger to an appropriate power source (100–240 V, 12 V), according to the
specification of the charger.
2 Perform one of the following actions:
Desktop chargers – insert the battery or the radio with the battery attached into the
appropriate socket of the charger. Ensure that the battery/radio made good connection with
the charger and that the LED on the charger is indicating that charging is in progress
Travel chargers and car chargers – connect the charger to the radio with the battery
attached. Ensure that the charger is firmly connected to the radio and that the radio display is
indicating that charging is in progress.
NOTICE: If a multi-unit charger LED indicates an error (blinking red light) when radio is
inserted and being charged with the multi-unit charger (MUC), please re-insert the radio.
If, after several reconnections to the charger, the light is still red, the battery may be
damaged or depleted.
Postrequisites: The battery may heat up during charging. After charging, make sure that the battery
and the radio are within the operating temperature range before using the radio.

Prerequisites: Make sure that Motorola Customer Programming Software (CPS) or the USB Charging
Driver Tool (available on the CPS installation CD) is installed on your computer.
For more information on CPS, contact your service provider.

2 Connect the radio to the computer with the USB cable.
NOTICE: When a radio, which is powered off with a fully charged battery is connected to
a computer USB port, the status LED may light up red. Pressing the END key will activate
the Charger Mode.
