¦ Guide the pack into the slots with a slight in-
ward pressure, then slide the battery pack up-
ward, until it locks in place with a “Click.”
¦ To remove the battery, turn the radio off and re-
move any protective cases. Press in the Battery
Release button (behind the Antenna jack) while
sliding the battery down ½”. Then lift the bat-
tery away.
Do not attempt to open any of the recharge-
able Ni-Cd packs, as personal injury or dam-
age to the Ni-Cd pack could occur if a cell or cells
become accidentally short-circuited.
Battery Charging
It is necessary to fully charge the Ni-Cd battery be-
fore it’s first use. Follow these procedures:
¦ Install the supplied FNB-41 Ni-Cd battery pack
onto the transceiver. Ensure that the transceiver
is switched off.
¦ Lift up the rubber cover
to expose the EXT DC
jack. Plug the cable plug
from the NC-60 charger
into this jack.
¦ Plug the NC-60 into the
AC mains outlet.
¦ Allow a minimum of 10 hours for the FNB-41
to reach full charge. Leave the transceiver
switched off this entire period.
¦ Unplug the cable from the EXT DC jack. Re-
place the rubber cover to protect the jack. Switch
on the transceiver and begin operation.
Important Notes:
r Do not leave the charger connected to the trans-
ceiver for continuous periods in excess of 24
hours. Long term overcharging can degrade the
Ni-Cd battery pack and significantly shorten its
useful life.
r If using a charger other than the NC-60, or if
using a battery pack other than the FNB-41, fol-
low the appropriate instructions provided with
the charger/battery. Contact your Dealer if you
have any doubts about the appropriateness of the
particular charger or battery pack you intend to
use.
