Charging the Battery
For best performance, your radio is powered by a
Motorola-approved Nickel Metal-Hydride (NiMH) or
Lithium-Ion (Li-lon) battery. To avoid damage and to
ensure compliance with warranty terms, charge the
battery using a Motorola charger exactly
as described
in the charger user guide. It is recommended your
radio remains powered off while charging.
Charge a new battery 14 to 16 hours before initial use
for best performance.
Attaching the Battery
Note:
If user inadvertently attaches a UL battery to
an FM approved radio or vice versa, the
certification on the radio will be voided. Your
radio can be preprogrammed via CPS to alert
you if this battery mismatch occurs. Check
with your dealer or system administrator to
determine how your radio has been
programmed. This battery mismatch alert
feature is only applicable for IMPRES battery
and Non-IMPRES battery with kit number
programmed in Erasable Programmable Read
Only Memory (EPROM).
When the radio is attached with the wrong
battery, a low pitched warning tone sounds,
the LED lights up blinking red and the Voice

Speech is loaded via CPS.

radio. Press the battery firmly, and slide upwards
until the latch snaps into place. Slide battery latch
