Charging The Radio; Charging Using The Drop-In Charging Tray - Motorola Solutions DTR Série Guide De L'utilisateur

Introduction: Charging the Radio
! !
W A R N I N G
Motorola Solutions batteries are designed specifically to be used with a Motorola Solutions charger
and vice versa. Charging in non-Motorola Solutions equipment may lead to battery damage and void
the battery warranty. The battery should be at about 77°F (25°C) (room temperature), whenever
possible. Charging a cold battery (below 50° F [10°C]) may result in leakage of electrolyte and
ultimately in failure of the battery.
Charging a hot battery (above 95°F [35°C]) results in reduced discharge capacity, affecting the
performance of the radio. Motorola Solutions rapid-rate battery chargers contain a temperature-
sensing circuit to ensure that batteries are charged within the temperature limits stated above.

To charge the battery, place the battery (with or without the radio) in a Motorola Solutions-approved
charger.

Charging the Radio

While the radio is charging, the display lights and the battery status icon flashes to show the status.
The battery charges in approximately 1-3 hours, and battery gauge shows all segments and stop
flashing when fully charged.

Charging using the Drop-in Charging Tray

NOTE: Use of the Drop-in Charging Tray is recommended for daily use.
1. Place the charging tray on a flat surface.
2. Connect the plug-in charger and drop-in charging tray by inserting the plug into the rear of the
drop-in charging tray.
3. Plug the charger into an AC outlet.
4. Insert the radio (with battery installed) into the charging tray.
NOTE: The charging tray has been designed to charge the radio with or without the holster.
Care should be taken to avoid external short circuiting of the battery.
A sustained high-rate discharge (for example, a paper clip placed
accidentally across the battery contacts) may permanently damage
the battery, void the battery warranty, and create a burn or fire
hazard.
Do not attempt to change or charge the battery in a hazardous
atmosphere.
