Battery and Charger

This chapter describes the battery and charger feature for the radio.

3.1

Battery Specifications

The radio comes equipped with a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery. To ensure optimum capacity and

performance, the battery should be charged before initial use.

Battery life is determined by several factors. The critical ones are overcharging of batteries and the

average depth of discharge each cycle. The greater the overcharge and the deeper the average

discharge, the fewer cycles a battery lasts. A battery which is overcharged and discharged 100 % for

several times a day, lasts fewer cycles than a battery that overcharges less and is discharged to 50 %

per day. Battery with minimal overcharge and has an average of 25 % discharge, lasts even longer.

Motorola Solutions batteries are designed specifically to be used with a Motorola Solutions charger

and vice versa. Charging batteries with non-Motorola Solutions equipment may lead to battery damage

and void the battery warranty. Whenever possible, maintain the battery temperature to 77 °F (25

°C) (room temperature). Charging a cold battery (below 50 °F [10 °C]) may result in leakage of

electrolyte and ultimate failure of the battery. Charging a hot battery (above 95 °F [35 °C]) results in

reducing discharge capacity and affecting the performance of the radio. Motorola Solutions rapid-rate

battery chargers contain a temperature-sensing circuit to ensure that batteries are charged within the

temperature limits.

Battery Recycling and Disposal

Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries can be recycled. However, recycling facilities may not be available

in all areas. Under various U.S. state laws and the laws of several other countries, batteries must be

recycled and cannot be disposed of in landfills or incinerators. Contact your local waste management
