Battery Charging
1. Connect the AC adapter to the charger
pod. The LED status light will illuminate
green indicating ready for charge
2. Turn the transceiver off
3. Insert the battery pack into the charger
pod, either with or without the
transceiver attached. The LED status light
changes from green to RED & trickle
charge begins
4. A fully discharged battery pack will take
approximately 6 hours to charge,
depending on the remaining power
condition. When charge is complete, the
LED status light turns green.
Overcharging:
The battery pack has an over-current
protection circuit fitted. When charging a
completely discharged battery i.e. first charge,
ensure the battery is removed from the radio
and then re-attached (if fitted to radio when
charging). This will reset the protection
circuitry and ensure normal operation. This
process will need to be repeated if the battery
is allowed to completely discharge in the
future. In normal use this is unlikely.

Battery Care / Information
Battery Indicator
For your safety and convenience your
transceiver continually monitors the battery
pack and gives an indication on the LCD:
• 3 Segments: 12 hours
• 2 Segments: 1 hour
• 1 Segment: 20 mins
Note: Only genuine Entel batteries should be
used. Customer satisfaction is assured as you
can not be supplied with sub standard,
potentially dangerous battery packs from 3rd
party manufacturers, ensuring it delivers the
expected capacity and endurance.
On HT series batteries a breathable
membrane is used. This is clearly marked on
the battery label. Piercing the membrane will
allow water ingress to the battery, & will
invalidate the warranty.
