BK Radio
power of the channel or the power
setting you select. You will hear a
low-battery audio beep once every
30 seconds.
Once the radio shows the low-battery
icon, even if the battery voltage goes
above the threshold setting, the radio
will remain in the low-battery condition
until you replace the battery.
Second Battery Threshold
The Aurora radio has a second battery
threshold level. When the second
battery threshold is reached the status
LED will flash and the radio will not
transmit until the battery is removed and
reinstalled at a level above threshold
two.
Third Battery Threshold
The Aurora radio has a third battery
threshold level. When the third
threshold is reached, the radio suspends
all functions and in advanced models,
“Low Battery” is displayed. Low-
battery threshold three indicates the
radio battery has discharged to a level at
which you need to recharge the battery
immediately to prevent battery damage.
Turn the on/off switch into the OFF
position and charge the battery before
using the radio again.
