TROUBLESHOOTING
When the radio and battery are inserted in the Vehicle Adapter the battery type
and condition are sensed and the Vehicle Adapter automatically commences the
appropriate charging routine.
To ensure proper operation:
¥ periodically check the contacts of the radio, battery and Vehicle Adapter and
clean them if necessary.
¥ the radio and battery must Þt correctly into the Vehicle Adapter and make good
electrical contact.
No ÒRADIO MODEÓ LED Indications
1. Check that the radio with battery is inserted correctly.
(see OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS on preceding pages).
2. Check that the locking button on the Vehicle Adapter is pressed down to
provide the contact between the radio and the Vehicle Adapter.
3. Check that the radio is switched on.
4. Remove the radio from the Vehicle Adapter and clean the thirteen metal
contacts on the side of the radio and also the thirteen pins on the Vehicle
Adapter. Place the radio with battery Þtted back into the Vehicle Adapter.
YELLOW ßashing ÒCHARGEÓ LED
If the LED is ßashing YELLOW with the radio installed in the Vehicle Adapter, the
battery is not charging. If this occurs ensure that:
1. the radio is correctly installed in the adapter
(see OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS on preceding pages).
2. the battery contacts are clean and free from foreign material - remove the radio
from the Vehicle Adapter and use a pencil eraser to clean the four metal
battery contacts on the bottom of the unit.
Note: The charger will not rapid-charge a battery:
¥ whose temperature is below -10¡C (14¡F) or above 45¡C (113¡F).
¥ whose voltage is lower than a predetermined threshold level.
To protect the batteries from damage, rapid charge will only occur in the
temperature range of +5¡C to +45¡C and restricted charging (only low current) will
occur in the temperature range of between -10¡C and +5¡C".
RED ßashing ÒCHARGEÓ LED
If the LED is ßashing RED with the radio installed in the Vehicle Adapter, the
battery is not charging. If this occurs ensure that:
1. the battery is one of the Motorola approved rechargeable NiCd, NiMH or LiIon
batteries listed in Table 1.
2. the battery contacts are clean and free from foreign material - remove the radio
from the Vehicle Adapter and use a pencil eraser to clean the four metal
battery contacts on the bottom of the unit.
3. If the RED ßashing condition persists, change the battery.
