Getting Started Charging the NiMH Battery Pack You will need to charge the battery pack fully before initial use. For best results from your charging cycle, follow these tips:

Ensure the ambient temperature is between 41 and 104 F (5 and 40C) while charging. Temperatures outside this range may not fully charge the battery. Always switch OFF the transceiver equipped with a NiMH battery pack before charging. Using the radio during the charging cycle will hinder correct charging. Do not recharge the battery pack if it is already fully charged. Doing so may cause the life of the battery pack to shorten or the battery pack may be damaged. If the battery is stored for 2 months or more, it is a good idea to complete the charge / discharge cycle two or three times to allow the battery capacity to return to normal. Never dispose of the battery in fire - it can explode causing personal injury. Never attempt to disassemble the battery or remove its case material or charging contacts. Do not short the battery terminals. 47 4 III. Getting Started, continued Charging the NiMH Battery Pack, continued NOTE: The first few uses from the battery will not be at normal capacity. After repeating the charge / dis-

charge cycle two or three times, the battery capacity will increase to provide full capacity. 1. Plug the AC adapter cable in the adapter jack located on the rear of the charger, then into an AC outlet. 2. Slide the NiMH battery pack (or the radio equipped with a NiMH battery pack) into the charging slot. 3. Ensure that the metal contacts on the battery pack come in contact with the charging terminals. 4. When charging the NiMH battery pack alone, insert the provided plastic spacer (stored in charger base) into the charging well, then insert the battery pack. 5. The charger LED will light to advise that charging has begun. Charge the standard battery pack for 9 hours. REMOVE THE PACK OR RADIO FROM THE CHARGER. IMPORTANT NOTE: The charger DOES NOT TURN OFF AUTOMATICALLY after the charging cycle has been completed. Damage to the battery or reduced battery life may result if charged in excess of the recommended charging time. 5 IX.

Getting Started Charging the NiMH Battery Pack You will need to charge the battery pack fully before initial use. For best results from your charging cycle, follow these tips:

Ensure the ambient temperature is between 41 and 104 F (5 and 40C) while charging. Temperatures outside this range may not fully charge the battery. Always switch OFF the transceiver equipped with a NiMH battery pack before charging. Using the radio during the charging cycle will hinder correct charging. Do not recharge the battery pack if it is already fully charged. Doing so may cause the life of the battery pack to shorten or the battery pack may be damaged. If the battery is stored for 2 months or more, it is a good idea to complete the charge / discharge cycle two or three times to allow the battery capacity to return to normal. Never dispose of the battery in fire - it can explode causing personal injury. Never attempt to disassemble the battery or remove its case material or charging contacts. Do not short the battery terminals. 47 4 III. Getting Started, continued Charging the NiMH Battery Pack, continued NOTE: The first few uses from the battery will not be at normal capacity. After repeating the charge / dis-

charge cycle two or three times, the battery capacity will increase to provide full capacity. 1. Plug the AC adapter cable in the adapter jack located on the rear of the charger, then into an AC outlet. 2. Slide the NiMH battery pack (or the radio equipped with a NiMH battery pack) into the charging slot. 3. Ensure that the metal contacts on the battery pack come in contact with the charging terminals. 4. When charging the NiMH battery pack alone, insert the provided plastic spacer (stored in charger base) into the charging well, then insert the battery pack. 5. The charger LED will light to advise that charging has begun. Charge the standard battery pack for 9 hours. REMOVE THE PACK OR RADIO FROM THE CHARGER. IMPORTANT NOTE: The charger DOES NOT TURN OFF AUTOMATICALLY after the charging cycle has been completed. Damage to the battery or reduced battery life may result if charged in excess of the recommended charging time. IX.

III. Getting Started, continued Attaching and Removing the Battery Pack After recharging the battery pack, REMOVE IT FROM THE CHARGER. The battery pack life is over when its operating time decreases even though it is fully and correctly charged. Replace the pack with the manufacturers recommended model. Average battery pack life from the supplied 750 mAh battery is 11+ hours; the optional 1350 mAh battery, 19+ hours. This service time is calculated using 90%

standby, 5% transmit and 5% receive time. After charging the battery pack as described, you are ready to install it to the radio body. Simply;

1. Match the four grooves of the battery pack with the guides on the back of the radio. 2. Slide the battery pack up along the back of the radio until the release latch locks. To remove the battery pack, push down on the release latch and slide the pack downward, and away from the radio. 45 6 VIII.

Un tono de un segundo se oir para el 0 del dgito de 10s, habr una pausa corta, y entonces un pitido corto se oye por el 1 del dgito de 1s confirmando que el 01 se ha seleccionado. III. Getting Started, continued Installing the Antenna Screw the antenna into the connector on the top of the radio by holding the antenna at its base and turning it clockwise until seated. Do not overtighten. The antenna should never be used to carry your radio, or as a base to clip radio accessories. Misuse of the antenna can cause damage, and reduce your radios performance. Installing the Belt Clip We recommend that the belt clip is installed on the radio. It keeps the radio from coming in contact with hot surfaces, and away from your body if heat build-up occurs with excess transmissions. Use the two supplied screws to install the belt clip. If a replacement is needed, use a screw designed to the exact specifications as the original, to prevent acciden-

tal contact with internal circuitry, or possible personal injury. Never use glue in conjunction with the provided screws. Some of the glues components may crack the radio back panel, causing radio damage and possible personal injury. Installing the Speaker Microphone Jack Cover If you are not using an accessory, install the provided cover over the speaker microphone jack using the screw supplied. This will keep the radio water resistant. 7 44 ValorModelo del Pitido VIII.

FCC RF Exposure Compliance Requirements -

for Occupational Use Only The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), with its action in General Docket 93-62, November 7, 1997, has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated equipment. Topaz3 / Legacy subscribes to the same safety standard for the use of its products. Proper operation of this radio will result in user exposure far below the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA)and Federal Communications Commission limits. CAUTION -

DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time (50% duty cycle). Transmitting more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. This radio is NOT approved for use by the general population in an uncontrolled environment. This radio is restricted to occupational use, work related operations only where radio operator must have the knowledge to control its RF exposure conditions. The radio is transmitting when the red LED on the front of the radio is illuminated. You can cause the radio to transmit by pressing the P-T-T bar on the radio.

When transmitting, hold the radio in a vertical position with its microphone 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm) away from your mouth. Keep the antenna at least 1 inch

(2.5 cm) from your head and body. 1

I. FCC RF Exposure Compliance Requirements -

for Occupational Use Only, continued

ALWAYS use Maxon, Legacy and TruTalk authorized accessories: antennas, batteries, belt clips, speaker mics, etc. Failure to observe these restrictions will result in exceeding the FCC RF exposure limits. 2

II. Unpacking and Checking Equipment Carefully unpack the radio and its accessories. Use the item list below to identify the components included in the product packaging, to ensure that no items are discarded in the packing materials. Radio Body Antenna Battery Charger (with plastic spacer) AC Adapter NiMH Battery Pack Speaker Microphone Jack Cover Belt Clip Screw Set Operating Instructions If any items are missing or damaged, you should contact the Topaz3 Customer Service Department. Dial 1-800-821-7848, Ext. 499 for assistance. 3 III. Getting Started Charging the NiMH Battery Pack You will need to charge the battery pack fully before initial use. For best results from your charging cycle, follow these tips:

Ensure the ambient temperature is between 41 and 104 F (5 and 40C) while charging. Temperatures outside this range may not fully charge the battery.

Always switch OFF the transceiver equipped with a NiMH battery pack before charging. Using the radio during the charging cycle will hinder correct charging.

Do not recharge the battery pack if it is already fully charged. Doing so may cause the life of the battery pack to shorten or the battery pack may be damaged.

If the battery is stored for 2 months or more, it is a good idea to complete the charge / discharge cycle two or three times to allow the battery capacity to return to normal.

Never dispose of the battery in fire - it can explode causing personal injury.

Never attempt to disassemble the battery or remove its case material or charging contacts. Do not short the battery terminals. 4 III. Getting Started, continued Charging the NiMH Battery Pack, continued NOTE: The first few uses from the battery will not be at normal capacity. After repeating the charge / dis-

charge cycle two or three times, the battery capacity will increase to provide full capacity. 1. Plug the AC adapter cable in the adapter jack located on the rear of the charger, then into an AC outlet. 2. Slide the NiMH battery pack (or the radio equipped with a NiMH battery pack) into the charging slot. 3. Ensure that the metal contacts on the battery pack come in contact with the charging terminals. 4. When charging the NiMH battery pack alone, insert the provided plastic spacer into the charging well, then insert the battery pack. 5. The charger LED will light to advise that charging has begun. Charge the standard battery pack for 9 hours, THEN REMOVE THE PACK OR RADIO FROM THE CHARGER. IMPORTANT NOTE:

The charger DOES NOT TURN OFF AUTO-

MATICALLY after the charging cycle has been completed. You will need to unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet. 5 III. Getting Started, continued Attaching and Removing the Battery Pack After recharging the battery pack, remove it from the charger. Charging the battery pack for more than 5 days may reduce the battery pack life. The battery pack life is over when its operating time decreases even though it is fully and correctly charged. Replace the pack with the manufacturers recommended model. Average battery pack life from the supplied 750 mAh battery is 11+ hours; the optional 1350 mAh battery, 19+ hours. This service time is calculated using 90%

standby, 5% transmit and 5% receive time. After charging the battery pack as described, you are ready to install it to the radio body. Simply;

1. Match the four grooves of the battery pack with the guides on the back of the radio. 2. Slide the battery pack up along the back of the radio until the release latch locks. To remove the battery pack, push down on the release latch and slide the pack downward, and away from the radio. 6 III. Getting Started, continued Installing the Antenna Screw the antenna into the connector on the top of the radio by holding the antenna at its base and turning it clockwise until seated. Do not overtighten. The antenna should never be used to carry your radio, or as a base to clip radio accessories. Misuse of the antenna can cause damage, and reduce your radios performance. Installing the Belt Clip We recommend that the belt clip is installed on the radio. It keeps the radio from coming in contact with hot surfaces, and away from your body if heat build-up occurs with excess transmissions. Use the two supplied screws to install the belt clip. If a replacement is needed, use a screw designed to the exact specifications as the original, to prevent acciden-

tal contact with internal circuitry, or possible personal injury. Never use glue in conjunction with the provided screws. Some of the glues components may crack the radio back panel, causing radio damage and possible personal injury. Installing the Speaker Microphone Jack Cover If you are not using an accessory, install the provided cover over the speaker microphone jack using the screw supplied. This will keep the radio water resistant. 7 III. Getting Started, continued Attaching the Optional Speaker Microphone 1. Insert the speaker microphone jack into the radio. 2. Use the thumbscrew attachment on the speaker microphone to make connection to the radio. NOTE: The radio is not fully water resistant while the speaker microphone is attached. 8 IV.
