Using the transceiver while charging its battery pack will interfere with correct charging.
◆
If the operating time of a battery pack decreases although the battery pack is fully and
◆
correctly charged, the battery pack life is over. Replace the battery pack.
The ambient temperature should be from 0°C to 40°C while charging is in progress.
◆
When the ambient temperature is in the upper limits (close to 40°C), the charging time may
become longer than normal.
The charging times provided are obtained when a battery pack discharged to 1 V/cell x 6 (Ni-
◆
Cd and Ni-MH) or 3 V/cell x 2 (Li-ion) is charged at normal temperatures. This charging time
varies depending on the degree of discharge and the ambient charging temperature.
If the battery pack contacts are not properly mated with the charger terminals, the indicator
◆
may blink red or may remain unlit. To resolve this problem, reinsert the battery pack after
cleaning the battery pack contacts and the charger terminals.
Ni-Cd and Ni-MH Only: Repeatedly recharging a fully charged battery pack, or almost fully
◆
charged pack, shortens its operating time. To resolve this problem, use the pack until it is
completely discharged, 1 V/cell x 6 then recharge the pack to full capacity.
Ni-Cd and Ni-MH Only: The battery life in charge/discharge cycles is approximately 300.
◆
However, overcharging and excessive discharging shortens the battery pack life.
When using this equipment near a radio, transceiver or television, you may experience
◆
interference with reception.
