Battery care
Introduction
Your Entel radio is supplied with a high performance
Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery. These batteries:
• Extend talk time
• Reduce the battery’s size and weight
• Do not suffer from ‘memory effect’ that reduces the
life of Ni-Cad and NiMH batteries
• Have a low toxicity, therefore reducing the impact
on the environment
Battery Pack Precautions

• Do not recharge the battery pack if it is already fully
charged. This could lead to a premature battery
replacement warning message (See Battery
Communications on page 4)
• Charge the battery in accordance with the
instructions enclosed with your charger
• Do not charge the transceiver and/or battery pack
if they are wet
The battery pack includes potentially hazardous
components. Please:
• Do not disassemble or reconstruct battery
