Battery
Safety Precautions
The battery option is shipped uncharged from the factory. Please charge a new battery or
battery that has not been used for a long time prior to use. The maximum capacity of the
battery is achieved only after 2 or 3 charging and discharging cycles. When the battery
power runs low, please recharge the battery or replace with a refresh one.
Initial Use
The HYT approved battery is shipped not fully charged at the factory. Prior to using a new
battery, please charge it for 12 hours, which applies for Ni-Cd, Ni-MH and Li-Ion battery
charged with slow or rapid rate charger. It is recommended to take this step for the first
three times of use. When the battery power runs low, please recharge the battery.
Applicable Battery Packs
To reduce the risk of injury, charge only the battery specified by the manufacturer. Other
batteries may burst, causing bodily injury and damage.
Caution:
1. Do not short circuit the battery terminals or discard the battery in fire. Never attempt
to disassemble the battery.
2. The battery should be charged at 5 ~ 40 , temperature out of this range could ℃℃
result the battery not fully charged.
3. When charging a battery attached to a radio, turn the radio off to ensure a full charge.
4. Do not cut off the power supply or remove the battery when charging a battery.
5. If the operation time will not increase even though the battery is properly charged, this
means the battery life cycle is over, please replace with a new one.
6. Do not return fully charged batteries to the charger for an “extra boost”. This action
will significantly reduce battery life.
7. Never charge a battery that is wet. Please dry it with soft cloth prior to charge.
All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if a conductive
material such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains touch exposed terminals. The
conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot.
