Preparation
2. Connect the supplied battery
charger’s barrel plug to the
CHG
jack on the side of the Ni-MH bat-
tery pack, then insert the battery
charger’s plug into a standard
AC outlet.
3. To install the Ni-MH battery pack,
slide it onto the walkie-talkie until
it clicks.
Caution:
The battery pack fits
onto the walkie-talkie only one
way. Do not force it.
To remove the Ni-
MH battery pack,
slide the case in
the direction of the
arrow as shown
here while holding
up the latch on the
side of the walkie-
talkie.
Notes:
• The Ni-MH battery pack will last
longer and deliver more power if
you occasionally let it fully dis-
charge. To do this, simply use the
walkie-talkie until it no longer
transmits or receives.
• Do not charge the Ni-MH battery
pack at temperatures below 14
°
F
(–10
°
C) or above 131
°
F (55
°
C).
• Do not overcharge the Ni-MH
battery pack. Overcharging can
severely reduce its useful life.
Using the AA Battery Case
Your walkie-talkie can use eight AA
batteries (not supplied), installed in
the supplied battery case, for power.
For the best performance and longest
life, we recommend RadioShack alka-
line batteries.
Cautions:
• Use only fresh batteries of the
required size and recommended
type.
• Do not mix old and new batteries,
different types of batteries (stan-
dard, alkaline, or rechargeable),
or rechargeable batteries of dif-
ferent capacities.
1. If the walkie-talkie is on, turn
OFF/VOLUME
fully counterclock-
wise until it clicks to turn it off.
2. If the battery case is attached to
the walkie-talkie, slide the case
in the direction of the arrow while
holding up the latch on the side
of the walkie-talkie.
3. Pull the halves of the battery
case apart to open it.
4. Place the
batteries
inside
both
halves of
the bat-
tery case,
as indicated by the polarity sym-
bols (+ and –) marked inside.
