7 ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR RADIO
7.1 Li-ion battery
Advantages of Li-ion batteries :
▪ Li-ion batteries have a higher capacity/weight ratio (more power for less heavy, more
compact, battery)
▪ No memory effect (capacity loss after several charge/discharge cycles) like other type
batteries. (Ni-Cd, Ni-MeH ..).
▪ Limited self discharge. (also see chapter : Storage)
7.2 Charging tips
▪ The radio is not fully charged. Before first use, the radio requires 5-7 hours charge time to
be fully charged. Subsequent recharging needs 3-4 hours for the radio to be fully charged.
▪ Never over-discharge a battery by using the radio even after radio performance has
decreased. When radio performance begins to diminish stop the radio and recharge the
battery for optimal performance.
▪ Allow the radio to cool down after use; avoid placing the charger and radio in a warm
environment.
