Charging the batteries
Make sure the radio is switched off and connected to the
AC mains socket.
When the battery charge indicator LED ashes green, this
indicates the batteries are charging. Batteries will be fully
charged in around 5-7 hours. The battery charge indicator
LED shows steady green light when the battery charging
process is complete.
NOTE
Duration for charging your batteries fully can vary
according to the mAh capacity of the batteries. Higher
mAh batteries require longer charging time.
IMPORTANT
Under some conditions the charging LED indicator
may switch off after flashing briefly. This may happen
if the batteries are already freshly charged, or if the
radio detects that you may be attempting to recharge
alkaline batteries or mixed different types or capacity of
rechargeable battery. In these cases the charging will be
stopped.
Important Information On Charging And
Using Rechargeable Batteries
1. Recharge the batteries in any case at least every 2
months.
2. Make sure the Battery Select switch next the battery
compartment is set to the “CHARGE NiMH ON”
position.
3. Put the batteries in the compartment whilst paying
attention to the correct polarity of the batteries (+ and -).
4. First use: Charge new batteries in one continuous,
uninterrupted, charge until they are full. This first
charge may take longer than normal. For longer
battery life it is advised to always recharge in one
continuous, uninterrupted charge until batteries are
full and to not recharge again whilst the batteries are
still full.
5. New batteries will only reach their full capacity
after some time of use (several charge – discharge
cycles).
6. Leave the complete group of batteries in place inside
the radio and do not use these batteries or a few
of them for other purposes. This will result in a mix
of (fully) charged and (partly) empty batteries. This
can seriously damage the batteries and radio when
recharged.
7. It is advised to only charge batteries at room
temperatures between 5 degrees C – 35 degrees C.
In lower or higher temperatures full charge cannot be
achieved.
8. Depending on the capacity of the batteries, charging
from “empty” to “full” can take several hours, even up
to 7 hours or more.
9. Do not charge batteries when the radio is hot or
exposed to heat or heat sources.
10. It is advised to clean the metal contacts of the
batteries and of the charger inside the radio e.g. with
a contact-spray from time to time.
11. Do not use a mix of old and new rechargeable batteries.
12. Do not use a mix of rechargeable and nonrechargeable
batteries.
13. Do not use a mix of full and empty rechargeable
batteries.
14. Do not use batteries that have a different mAh capacity.
15. Do not use damaged, deformed or leaking batteries.
16. Battery level indication is an approximate indication
only and can vary with battery type used.
17. Batteries can become hot during charging.
18. In cold conditions the capacity of batteries will
be much lower than when used at normal room
temperature.
19. Batteries (even when supplied with the radio), as
being consumables, do not fall under the warranty
conditions of the radio.
20. Batteries should not be disposed of by incineration
and with household waste.
21. Disposable batteries should be taken to a suitable
recycling centre if possible.
22. CAUTION
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly
replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent
type.
Battery charging indicator
Please note that the battery charging status detection can
only be activated when the radio is in charging mode (i.e. the
radio is switched off, the battery switch slides to the NiHM
position and it is connected to the AC mains socket).
1. When charging is in progress,
Battery 123456
Charging
display is shown at right and the
charging indicator LED flashes
green.
2. When the charging process is

Capacity
completed, display is shown at
right and the charging indicator
LED lights in steady green.
3. If batteries are already fully

charged, display is shown at right
and it will switch to standby mode
after 5 seconds.
4. When there is no battery / missing
No cell
batteries in the compartment or
some of batteries are inserted with the incorrect
polarity, display is shown at right and it will enter
standby screen after 5 seconds.
NOTE
If a battery is removed while charging, display is shown
at right and the charging indicator LED lights red.
5. During the charging process, if a

battery is detected as faulty /
damaged, a solid square will be
displayed under the corresponding battery number (see
picture right) and the charging indicator LED ashes red.
