• Charging periods: 2.5 hours (w/BP-206)

CAUTION: Shorten or remove the telescoping antenna be-

fore charging to prevent the receiver from overturning.

Recommendation:

Charge the supplied battery pack for a maximum of

8 hours. Li-Ion batteries are different from Ni-Cd bat-

teries in that it is not necessary to completely charge

and discharge them to prolong the battery life. There-

fore, charging the battery in intervals, and not for ex-

tended periods is recommended.
