POWERING THE TRANSCEIVER
Your GMRS-WP1 radio transceiver operates on four AAA batteries. Alkaline
batteries will provide slightly better performance than rechargeable batteries
and will ensure optimum performance for the GMRS-WP1.
Batteries
There are three methods of powering the GMRS-WP1:
1. Alkaline Batteries.
WARNING: Do not attempt to recharge Alkaline batteries.
2. Audiovox Rechargeable Ni-MH Batteries - (Rechargeable NiMH
batteries (P/N FRSRBAT) and Charging Adapter (Model No.
WP1CHG) sold separately.) Use only Audiovox approved
rechargeable batteries and charging adapter when charging batter
ies internal to the unit. For additional optional equipment and
accessories for the GMRS-WP1, visit the Audiovox web site at
ww.audiovox.com, or call Customer Service at 1-800-290-6650.
NOTE: To extend battery life, avoid overcharging the batteries.
3. Various Brands of Rechargeable Batteries - Use of the optional
Audiovox charging adapter with other brands of rechargeable batter
ies is not recommended, as battery charging times will vary with
different brands of batteries. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions
for charging other brands of batteries.
Installing the Batteries:
Battery installation is made more convenient when the carry clip is removed.
To do this, release the spring latch securing the clip to radio and slide the clip
downward and away from the mounting stud.
