Owner's Manual

Charging the Battery
MP88 is equipped for using a 3.7V Li-ion rechargeable battery pack which can be recharged connecting the socket of the
AC/DC wall adaptor to a mains power socket and inserting the jack of the wall adaptor into the desktop charger plug. It takes
4-5 hours to fully recharge the radio. For maximum battery life, we recommend charging the battery pack when the BF-88A
is off and the battery pack is fully discharged.
Using a different battery charger other than the one specified can cause damage to your device or may even cause
explosions and personal injuries.
Using the Radio Battery Level and Low Battery Alert
This radio has a Battery Level Meter
that shows the battery power level. The greater the number of bars visible, the
stronger the battery level. When the battery level is low, the Battery Shell
icon will flash in the display indicating your
batteries should be replaced or recharged if using a rechargeable battery pack.
Warning! To avoid the risk of personal injury or property damage from fire or electrical shock, only use accessories
specifically designated for this product.
