(FCC), Industry Canada, and those from other administrations, please read the following information before using this radio. Using this radio You should use this radio only for work-related purposes (it is not authorized for any other use) and if you are fully aware of, and can exercise control over, your exposure to RF energy. To prevent exceeding FCC RF exposure limits, you must control the amount and duration of RF that you and other people are exposed to. It is also important that you:

Do not remove the RF Exposure label from the radio. Ensure this RF exposure information accompa-

nies the radio when it is transferred to other users. 14 For your safety Do not use the radio if you do not adhere to the guidelines on controlling your exposure to RF. Controlling your exposure to RF energy This radio emits radio frequency (RF) energy or radio waves primarily when calls are made. RF is a form of electromagnetic energy (as is sunlight), and there are recommended levels of maximum RF exposure. To control your exposure to RF and comply with the maximum exposure limits for occupational/controlled environments, follow these guidelines:

Do not talk (transmit) on the radio more than the rated transmit duty cycle. This is important because the radio radiates more energy when it is transmitting than when it is receiving. When listening and talking on the radio, hold it upright in front of your face so that it is at least one inch (2.5 cm) away from any part of your face. Keeping the radio at the recommended distance is important because exposure to RF decreases rap-

idly the further away the antenna is from your body. Keep the antenna at least one inch (2.5 cm) from your face at all times. If you wear your radio, you must always put it in a carrying accessory that has been specifically approved by Tait for this radio. Using non-

approved body-worn accessories may mean you expose yourself to higher levels of RF than recom-

mended by the FCCs occupational/controlled environment RF exposure limits. Ensure you only use Tait-approved antennas, bat-

teries, and accessories. For more information on what RF energy is and how to control your exposure to it, visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html. For your safety 15 Compliance with RF energy exposure standards This two-way radio complies with these RF energy exposure standards and guidelines:

tion "Charging and caring for batteries" on page 129.) 28 About this guide 2 Before using your radio Once you have unpacked your radio, there are a few tasks you must do before you can use it. The most important of these is to charge your battery for the first time allow 2.5 hours for this. Warning Use only a Tait-supplied, IS-approved battery, charger, antenna, audio accessory, carry accessory or programming adapter with an IS radio. Fitting a battery or accessory that is not IS-approved, using a charger that is not IS-approved, or failing to use the IS programming adapter, creates a risk of explosion which could cause serious injury or death. For an up-to-date list of approved accessories, contact your regional Tait office. For detailed information about IS radios and how to identify them, see "Intrinsically Safe radios and accessories" on page 8. Warning Do not charge the battery or change the antenna in a hazardous location. An explosion could cause serious injury or death. This section covers:

For your safety battery warning Attaching labels to the radio or battery Charging the battery before first use Attaching the battery Removing the battery Attaching the antenna Removing the antenna Attaching a belt clip Removing a belt clip Installing an audio accessory Before using your radio 29 For your safety battery warning Warning This radio uses a Lithium-ion battery. If the battery is damaged or handled in an unsafe manner, it can cause personal injury and/or damage to property. Read the important safety information included with your battery. Attaching labels to the radio or battery Warning Do not cover the battery vent hole or the vent hole on the radio chassis. If the vent on the battery is obstructed, the battery may explode, causing personal injury and/or damage to property. If the vent on the radio is obstructed, audio quality and/

or key function may deteriorate and radio seals may be damaged. Notice Tait recommends that you do not affix additional labels to the surfaces between the radio chassis and the battery. The fit between these surfaces is intentionally firm and any added thickness will damage the points of attachment between radio and battery. 30 Before using your radio Attaching a label to the front panel If a customer requires an additional label, attach the label in the spare label recess in the bottom edge of the radio front panel.

Before using your radio 33 Installing an audio accessory Warning Use only Tait-supplied, IS-approved audio accessories with IS radios. Fitting an audio accessory that is not IS-approved exposes the customer to a risk of explosion which could cause serious injury or death. For an up-to-date list of approved audio accessories, contact your regional Tait office. For detailed information about IS radios and how to identify them, see "Intrinsically Safe radios and accessories" on page 8. Audio accessories plug into the radios accessory connector. The accessory connector is protected by a cover, which needs to be removed before an accessory can be installed. Notice The accessory cover protects the accessory connector from electrostatic discharge. Keep the cover in place unless the connector is in use. To remove the accessory cover and install an audio accessory:

1 Use a coin or other blunt object to loosen the screw that secures the accessory cover to the radio. 2 Remove the accessory cover and store it in a safe place. 3 Plug the accessory into the accessory connector. 4 Tighten the screw. 34 Before using your radio 3 Getting started This section gives an overview of your DMR radio, describes the radios controls and indicators, and explains how the radio menus are organized. This section covers:

About your DMR digital radio About the radio controls Understanding the radio display Understanding the radio indicators Using function keys to access frequently used fea-

tures Navigating the radios menus Using the alphanumeric keys to search a list Getting started 35 About your DMR digital radio Your DMR digital radio can be programmed for DMR conventional or DMR trunked operation. Analog conventional and MPT operation is also available. DMR and MPT trunking operation is controlled by a software license (SFE) and may not be available with your radio. In DMR and MPT trunking operation, dual-mode networks are able to receive both digital and analog calls. You may notice differences between digital and analog calls in terms of:

static noise in low signal areas, and radio coverage in marginal reception areas. Lack of static noise On digital networks there is no static noise, even in low signal areas. This lack of static is because your digital radio removes the noise from the call, so that you hear only clear voice. Coverage With digital networks, a call remains clear and then drops off quickly at the border of a coverage area. The reason for this is that a digital call is either received or it isn't. With analog networks, the background noise in a call gets progressively worse when you are in fringe areas or even slightly outside normal coverage areas. 36 Getting started About the radio controls The radio controls are the PTT key, power/volume control, channel selector, 3-way selector control

(optional), scroll keys, selection keys, and function keys. Some keys have functions assigned to both short and long key presses:

a short key press is less than one second, and a long key press is more than one second. The radio controls and their functions are described in the following sections. 3-way selector control (optional) power / volume control function key 2 PTT key

DMR calls over the DMR network DMR calls between radios analog calls between radios If you are on a channel programmed for calls over the DMR network, the green LED indicates whether the network is active. By default, the network is inactive

(green LED is off). Initiating a call will activate the network which will remain active for a programmed time. While the network is active (green LED glows), you can complete the call and start a new call. If you are on a channel programmed for DMR or analog calls between radios (without a radio network), the green LED indicates activity on the channel, i.e. whether someone is talking. For all DMR calls (over the network or radio to radio), you will hear a go-ahead double-beep after pressing the PTT key (if programmed). Receiving a new DMR call is indicated by a number beeps (if programmed):

one beep: individual call two beeps: group call three beeps: broadcast call to all radios DMR calls have an inactivity timeout. If a pause in the conversation exceeds the timeout, the next press of the PTT key will establish a new call. Operating in conventional mode 65 To make a call:

1 Select the required channel or scan group. You may need to select the zone you want first, then select the channel or group from that zone. 2 On channels programmed for DMR or analog calls between radios (without a radio network): Check that the channel is clear. If the LED is glowing green, the channel is busy and you may not be able to transmit. 3 Hold the radio so that the microphone is about one inch (2.5 cm) from your mouth and press the PTT key to transmit. 4 On a DMR channel: Wait for the go-ahead double-

beep (if programmed). 5 Speak clearly into the microphone and release the PTT key when you have finished talking. While you are transmitting, the LED glows red and the transmit icon appears on the display. If you turn the channel selector while pressing the PTT key, the channel will change after you release the PTT key. Limiting call time Your radio may limit the amount of time you can talk

(transmit) continuously. This is known as the transmit timer or time-out timer and allows other radio users to make calls on that channel. The message Transmit Timeout Imminent appears on the display. If the transmit timer has timed out, you must release the PTT before you can transmit again. Your radio may be unable to transmit for a short time after the transmit timer has expired. 66 Operating in conventional mode Making an individual call This feature is available for digital channels only.

Making an emergency call You may be able to activate emergency mode by using a programmed function key. 1 Press the function key programmed for Emergency Mode and an emergency call is sent to your dispatcher, or some other predetermined location. While emergency mode is active, your radio may cycle between receive and transmit, so that your dispatcher can hear any activity near the radio. Alternatively, your radio may appear to turn off but will actually remain in emergency mode. 2 Reset the radio to normal operation at any time by turning the radio off and then on. Emergency mode may be programmed to end after a fixed period of time. In this case, there is no need to turn the radio off and then on in order to return the radio to normal operation. Sending a status message For analog channels, your radio may be able to maintain a record of your current status. This status may be sent with outgoing calls programmed to contain status information. If the radio receiving your message has been programmed with the same status messages, it will decode and display your message. The message indicates your current activity or location, such as en route or at lunch. To change you current status:

72 Operating in conventional mode 1 Press Menu and select Set status. Main menu Set status Dial radio call Back Select 2 In the Set status menu, scroll through the list of status messages until the message you want appears. 3 Press Select. The message Status updated appears on the display. Resending calls automatically Your radio may have been programmed to resend individual and group calls when they are not answered. There are two automatic callback features:

deferred calling no acknowledgement retries Deferred calling When you attempt to make a call on a channel that is busy, the radio can store and send the call once the channel is free. The radio gives a low-pitched beep if the channel is busy, and then waits until the channel is free to retry the call. A deferred calling time limit may have been configured. Once the time limit has expired the radio will no longer attempt to retry the call. To cancel a deferred call:

ress the PTT key. No acknowledgement retries When you send a call and there is no reply, the call is resent. Operating in conventional mode 73 To cancel a call that is being resent:

Press the PTT key. Transmitting at low power If you are using your radio in conditions where signal strength is high, you can extend the shift life of your battery by transmitting at low power. When low power transmit is turned on, the display and calls are made at low power rather than at the programmed power setting. Some channels may always transmit at low power. To turn low power transmit on or off for all channels:

appears in Using the Main Menu 1 Press Menu and select Radio settings >

The message Low power tx activated appears briefly, and the low-power transmit icon appears on the display. 74 Operating in conventional mode 2 Press the low-power transmit function key again to turn low-power transmit off, and the message Low power tx deactivated appears on the display. Ending active calls For analog channels, you may have a function key programmed to either end the current call, or end the current call and all other active calls in your group. This can be done either by:

using the function key programmed for reset monitor to end your current call, using the function key programmed for call clear-

down to end your current call and all other calls in your group, or using the function key programmed for both reset monitor and call cleardown. Using a function key to end your current call Press the function key programmed for reset monitor. The radios monitor is turned off, ending your current call. The LED stops flashing green, and the monitor icon disappears from the display. Using a function key to end all active calls Press the function key programmed for call clear-

down and monitor is turned off for all radios in your radio group. The LED stops flashing green, and the monitor icon disappears from the display. Using the function key programmed for reset monitor/call cleardown to end active calls The function key programmed for reset monitor may be programmed so that a short key press ends your current call, and a long key press ends all active calls in your group. Operating in conventional mode 75 Using monitor and squelch override (on analog channels) The monitor function allows you to override some or all of the radios mutes, and hear if there is any traffic on a channel before you make a call. The squelch override function lets the radio user override the squelch (carrier) mute and hear all noise on a channel, including weak signals that are below the programmed squelch threshold. To turn monitor on and off:

1 Press Menu and select Radio settings >

Functions > Monitor.

(Depending on how your radio is programmed, you may be able to press a function key to toggle monitor on and off.) 2 Scroll to On (or Off) and press Select. While monitor is on, the LED slowly flashes green and the monitor icon appears in the display. Your radio may be programmed so that monitor turns off automatically after a short time. To turn squelch on and off:

1 Press Menu and select Radio settings >

Functions > Squelch oride. Squelch is often programmed as a long keypress of the same function key that turns monitor on and off. 2 Scroll to On (or Off) and press Select. This allows you to hear even faint and noisy signals. While squelch override is on, the LED flashes green, and the squelch override icon appears on the display. Press the monitor function key again to return the radio to a quiet state. 76 Operating in conventional mode Squelch cannot be overridden when the radio is scanning. Bypassing the repeater

(on analog channels) For analog channels, you can bypass the radio repeater and communicate directly with another radio. This feature is known as repeater talkaround. You can do this, for example, when you are out of range of the repeater, or if the repeater is busy or stops working. While repeater talkaround is active, all transmissions are made on the receive frequency of the channel you are on. To activate repeater talkaround, you may be able to either use a programmed function key, or use the Main menu. Using the Main menu 1 Select the required channel. 2 Press Menu and select Radio settings >

Functions > Talkaround. 3 In the Talkaround menu, choose On. 4 Press Select. The message Talkaround activated appears briefly, and the repeater talkaround icon appears on the display. 5 Proceed with your call. 6 To turn repeater talkaround off, either change the channel, or choose Off in the Talkaround menu. Using a function key 1 Select the required channel. 2 Press the programmed function key to turn repeater talkaround on. The message Talkaround activated appears briefly, and the repeater talkaround icon appears on the display. Operating in conventional mode 77 3 Proceed with your call. 4 To turn repeater talkaround off, either change the channel, or press the function key again. Receiving a call When there is valid activity on your radios currently selected channel or group, the radio then unmutes and you can hear the call. If an incoming analog call contains special signaling that matches the signaling programmed for your radio, the LED flashes green and your radio may give a ringing tone. Using the radio in different repeater areas Your radio may have a group of channels programmed as a voting group. The channels in the voting group all carry the same traffic, but from different repeaters. As your radio moves in and out of different repeater coverage areas, the best communication channel is automatically selected for you to use, until a better communications channel is selected. This channel is known as the home channel, and will be the channel you make and receive calls on. While voting is active, the scanning icon appears on the display. The section "Selecting a group" on page 62 explains how to select a group. A group can be either a voting or a scanning group. Suspending a channel from a voting group You may be able to use the function key programmed for nuisance delete to temporarily delete one of the channels from the voting group. 78 Operating in conventional mode When that voting group is next selected, or after the radio has been turned off and then on, the deleted channel is again part of the voting group. Alternatively, the function key programmed for voting may be programmed so that a short key press turns on voting, and a long key press activates nuisance delete. Press and hold the function key programmed for voting to remove the current channel from the vot-

ing group. If the operation has been successful, the message Channel nuisance deleted appears on the display. Scanning a group of channels The scan function is used to monitor a programmed group of channels, looking for activity. While the radio is scanning for activity, the scanning icon appears on the display. When activity is detected on a channel in the scan group, the radio stops on that channel. The radio unmutes and you can hear the call. Scanning resumes once the channel is no longer busy. The section "Selecting a group" on page 62 explains how to activate scanning. Standard and background scanning The two types of scanning that may be available on your radio are standard scanning, and background scanning. Background scan can only be activated by using a function key programmed for background scan. It differs from standard scanning in that the channel that was selected when background scan was activated is also included as a scan-group member. Making a call while scanning If you wish to make a call while your radio is scanning:

Operating in conventional mode 79 1 Press the PTT key to transmit. If background scan is active, your radio will now call the currently selected channel. 2 If standard scan is active and there has been no recent activity on the channel, then the channel that is called depends on the way your radio has been programmed. The possible options are:

your radio calls a predetermined channel e.g. your dispatcher, your radio calls the channel where activity was last detected, or your radio calls the last free channel. 3 When the called party responds, proceed with your conversation. Changing the background scan group assigned to a function key You can change the background scan group assigned to the function key programmed for group scanning or for scanning/nuisance delete. 1 Press Menu and select Advanced > Set scan key. Advanced Set scan key Program groups Back Select 2 In the Set scan key menu, scroll through the list of background scan groups until the group you want appears. 3 Press Select. The message Scan key scans new group appears on the display. The next time you activate background scan, the new group will be your background scan group. 80 Operating in conventional mode Suspending a channel from a scanning group If a member channel of a scan group is busy for a long time and you do not wish to hear the conversation, you may be able to use the function key programmed for nuisance delete to temporarily delete it from the scan group. When the scan group is next selected, or after the radio has been turned off and then on, the deleted channel is again part of the scan group. Alternatively, the function key programmed for scanning may be programmed so that a short key press turns on scanning, and a long key press activates nuisance delete. Press and hold the function key programmed for scanning to remove the current channel from the scanning group. If the operation has been successful, the message Channel deleted from group appears on the display. Adding or deleting member channels of a group Your radio may be programmed so you can add or delete channels in a voting or scanning group. Changes made are permanent, and will remain after restarting the radio. 1 Select the group. See "Selecting a group" on page 62. 2 Press Edit.

This channel is the groups first priority channel. You cannot delete this channel (it will not appear under Delete channel). This channel is the groups second priority channel. You cannot delete this channel (it will not appear under Delete channel). There is more than one instance of this channel in the group (the channel will be scanned more often). If you delete this channel, the radio will attempt to delete all instances of the channel. 84 Operating in conventional mode The following messages may appear when using nuisance delete to temporarily delete a channel from a group, when adding or deleting channels from a group, or changing a groups transmit or priority channels. Message Scanning not on No channel captured Not enough channels in group Cannot delete channel Cannot delete priority chan Only two channels in group No items in list Meaning You cannot use nuisance delete to temporarily delete a channel from a group, as there is no group currently selected. You cannot use nuisance delete to temporarily delete a channel from the group, as there is no channel currently captured. You cannot use nuisance delete to temporarily delete the channel from the group, as the captured channel is the last remaining group member. You cannot use nuisance delete to temporarily delete the channel from the group. The captured channel may be the selected channel in a background scan group. You cannot use nuisance delete to temporarily delete the channel from the group, as the captured channel is a priority channel. You cannot delete a channel from the group, as there would be only one group member left. The action you are attempting is not allowed. Either:

the group does not have a preset transmit channel or priority channels programmed, or you have added all the channels in the zone to the current group. Group full You cannot add any more channels to the group, as the maximum number of members (50) has been reached. Operating in conventional mode 85 6 Operating in trunked mode This section explains how your radio operates on a DMR (digital), MPT (analog) or dual-mode trunked network. These features are controlled by software licenses (SFE) and may not be available with your radio. Your radio must have trunking functionality programmed before it can operate in DMR or MPT trunked mode. This section covers:

Checking that your network is available Changing your network Making a preset call About trunked zones and workgroups About emergency operation Dialing a PABX number Dialing a PSTN number Receiving a call Re-establishing a call Checking the queue About status messages About trunked text messages Placing the radio in do-not-disturb mode Calls to conventional channels or conventional groups 86 Operating in trunked mode Checking that your network is available appears on the display. These are the Check that the orange LED is flashing and the network icon indications that your radio has access to a trunked network. If the network icon is flashing and No service appears on the display, your radio is attempting to access the trunked network. If this icon remains flashing, your radio may be out of the network coverage area. If Limited service appears on the display, one of the network sites or the connection between the network sites has been interrupted. You can still make calls to radios covered by the same site but not to radios to other sites. Changing your network Your radio may be programmed to operate in up to four completely separate trunking networks, either DMR (digital), MPT (analog) or both (dual mode). You may wish to change networks because you are out of the network coverage area, or you need to have access to another trunking network. To change your radios operating network, you may be able to either use the Main menu or dial the new network using the alphanumeric keys.

for preset call number 23. 23 Clear Send 2 Press Send or the # or PTT key. While the call is being setup, you can cancel the call by pressing Clear. Operating in trunked mode 89 About trunked zones and workgroups Trunked zones and workgroups are used to manage the calls on the trunked system. Zones typically define geographic areas (towns, suburbs or counties), or branches of an organization. Workgroups span multiple zones, and typically define functions, work areas or job roles. When your radio belongs to a workgroup, it is said to be subscribed, and you receive all calls directed to that group of users. A groups members are dynamic, in that a group only contains radios that are currently registered on the system and subscribed to the same group. Your radio may be programmed to use different names for a zone and workgroup. For example, district or area may be used in place of zone, and role or group may be used in place of workgroup. Selecting a zone 1 Press Menu and select Set zone. Main menu Set zone Set workgroup Back Select

This section covers:

About the chargers Special conditions when using IS radios Before using the charger Charging the battery Maintaining battery life and performance Storing batteries Disposing of batteries Charging and caring for batteries 129 About the chargers Unless otherwise indicated, the charging advice and instructions in this chapter apply to all chargers. There are four types of charger available for your Tait radio battery:

Desktop charger: Small enough to fit on a desk, it charges one bat-

tery at a time. Multicharger:

Charges up to six batteries. It can be mounted on a desk, on a wall, or in an equipment rack. Warning The multi-charger must be connected to an earthed mains socket-outlet. Vehicle charger: Charges one battery at a time while installed in a vehicle. Desktop charger for IS batter-

ies: Contains circuitry for the pro-

tection of IS batteries. Marked with an IS circle logo

. 130 Charging and caring for batteries Special conditions when using IS radios Intrinsically Safe (IS) radios and accessories are certified by a third party to be safe to use in particular hazardous locations, or in potentially explosive atmospheres. Warning Use only a Tait-supplied, IS-approved battery and charger with an IS radio. Fitting a battery or using a charger that is not IS-approved creates a risk of explosion which could cause serious injury or death. Warning Do not charge the battery in a hazardous location. An explosion could cause serious injury or death. For detailed information about IS radios and accessories, refer to "Intrinsically Safe radios and accessories" on page 8. Before using the charger Notice Turn the radio off before removing the battery, and turn it on again after attaching the battery. This ensures that the radio powers down and up correctly. Failing to follow this procedure may require the radio to be turned off then on again to operate correctly. Handle the battery safely Warning Handle the battery safely. Failure to observe the following handling recommendations could result in personal injury and/or equipment damage. Before using a Li-ion battery, please read the Li-ion Battery Safety Information (MPD-00024-xx for IS-batteries and MPC-00006-xx for non-IS bat-

teries) included with your battery, and follow the instructions it provides. Incorrect use of a Li-ion battery can cause explosion or fire. Charging and caring for batteries 131 Do not short-circuit the battery contacts, neither intentionally nor accidentally, e.g. by placing the battery with conductive materials such as keys or jewelry inside a pocket or container. Short-

circuiting the battery contacts can heat up the con-

ductive material. Attaching of labels Warning Do not obstruct the vent hole on the battery or the vent hole on the radio chassis label. If the vent on the battery is obstructed the battery may explode, causing personal injury and/ or damage to property. If the vent on the radio is obstructed, audio quality and/

or key function may deteriorate and radio seals may be damaged. For detailed information about attaching labels safely, see "Attaching labels to the radio or battery" on page 30. Charging temperatures Notice Do not expose a battery to very high or very low temperatures for extended periods of time. Doing so will shorten the usable life (service life) of the battery. To achieve the best results when charging your battery:

Before you begin to charge your battery, make sure that the battery temperature is close to the room temperature in which the battery is to be charged. If possible, charge the battery in temperatures between 50 F and 77 F (between 10 C and 25 C). This temperature range is the opti-

mal charging range. Charging only starts when the battery is between 32 F to 104 F (0 C to 40 C). 77 F 25 C 50 F 10 C 132 Charging and caring for batteries Temperature indications When the battery temperature is outside the normal charging range, the orange LED on the charger is lit. Charging will start or resume once the temperature is within normal limits, and no action is required by you. Leaving the battery on charge You can leave a battery/radio in the charger once charging is complete. Leaving a battery in the charger will not overcharge or damage it. You can remove a battery/radio from the charger at any time without harming the battery, the radio, or the charger. When you return the battery/radio to the charger, charging is automatically resumed. Charger for IS batteries only Notice Placing a fully charged battery into the charger for IS batteries may result in both the orange and red LED lighting up. In this case, remove the battery and use as normal. Leaving the battery in the charger may result in the battery being discharged. Vehicle charger only It is safe to switch off the ignition while there is still a battery in the charger. However, if the vehicle will not be used again for some time, check whether charging will continue while the ignition is off, and consider what effect this might have on the vehicle battery. To check, place the battery in the charger, and switch off the vehicle ignition:

If no charger LED stays lit, the charger will resume charging only when the ignition is switched on again. Minimal charger standby power will be drawn from the vehicle battery until then. If a charger LED stays lit, the charger will continue to charge the radio battery even while the ignition is off, and will continue to draw power from the vehicle battery. Once the battery is charged, the Charging and caring for batteries 133 charger draws minimal current and has little effect on a healthy vehicle battery. Receiving calls while charging Applies to desktop charger and multicharger only. Notice For best charging performance, switch off the radio before placing it in the charger. You can receive a call while the radio is in the charger, but your radio performance may be degraded. If you do remove the radio from the charger to answer a call, the call will not be disrupted. Removing the radio from the charger to make or receive a call ends the charging process. Charging safely recommences when the radio is reinserted into the charger. If a radio was turned on while being charged, the battery indicator may not be accurate when the radio is initially removed from the charger. After a few seconds, the battery indicator is updated to display the amount of charge available in the battery. Low battery warning Notice Do not allow a radio battery to fully discharge every time you use it, or you will shorten the service life of the battery. When the battery is low, your radio warns you in the following ways:

The battery icon empty. on the radio display looks The status LED on the radio slowly flashes red. A high-pitched beep sounds. 134 Charging and caring for batteries You should recharge or replace the battery as soon as possible. When the battery is completely empty, the message Battery is flat appears on the display. The radio emits a long, low-pitched beep and then stops working. Turn off the radio immediately. Charging the battery Fully charge a battery before using it for the first time. This will take up to 2.5 hours. The red LED stays lit while the battery charges. To charge the battery:

1 Desktop charger: Connect the charger to the correct Tait power adaptor. Multicharger and vehicle charger: Power on the charger. Initially, all three LEDs are lit for two seconds. 2 Place just a battery in the charger, or a radio with a battery attached (desktop charger or multicharger only). There is no need to remove a belt clip, antenna, or any accessory that is attached to the accessory connector. The red LED lights up, and stays lit while the battery charges. For a battery that is almost completely discharged, allow two hours. When charging is complete, the green LED stays lit. Charger for IS batteries only Notice Placing a fully charged battery into the charger for IS batteries may result in both the orange and red LED lighting up. In this case, remove the battery and use as normal. Leaving the battery in the charger may result in the battery being discharged. Charging and caring for batteries 135 LED behavior If there is a battery in the charger when power is supplied to the charger, the LEDs behave as follows:

briefly steady steady steady or flashing all off steady Meaning The charger has been connected to a power supply. The battery is charging. Charging complete. Remove the battery, or leave it in the charger. The battery temperature is outside the normal charging range. Charging will start or resume once the temperature is within normal limits. No action is required. There is a fault. Contact your local regional Tait office. If the LEDs for all charger slots continuously flash orange, or red then orange, the multicharger itself may be faulty (e.g. the fan may be jammed or faulty). Consult your radio provider for advice. There is a fault. Contact your local regional Tait office. A fully charged battery has been placed into the charger for IS batteries. Remove the battery and use as normal. Leaving the battery in the charger may result in the battery being discharged. If the charger does not behave as expected:

Make sure the radio or battery is seated properly in the charger. Check that the charger is properly plugged in. Check that the battery and charger contacts are clean. To clean, wipe the contacts with a dry lint-

free cloth to remove any dirt, oil or grease. 136 Charging and caring for batteries Removing the battery from the charger Desktop charger and multicharger: Lift the battery/

radio out of the charger. Vehicle charger: Pull the release bar up, and then lift out the battery. You can remove a battery/radio from the charger at any time without harming the battery, the radio, or the charger. When you return the battery/radio to the charger, charging is automatically resumed. You can also leave a battery/radio in the charger once charging is complete. Maintaining battery life and performance With proper care and maintenance you will maintain the performance and life of the battery. It is recommended that you:

Use only Tait batteries and chargers. Do not expose a battery to very high or very low temperatures for extended periods of time. Doing so will shorten the service life of the battery. Very high: above 140 F (60 C) Very low: less than 4 F (20 C) Warning The operating temperature range for IS radios in hazardous locations is 4F to +104F

(20C to +40C). Charge the battery at a room temperature of between 50 F and 77 F (between 10 C and 25 C). This temperature range is the optimal charging range. Store batteries properly when not in use. See "Storing batteries" on page 138. Charging and caring for batteries 137 Cleaning the contacts of the battery Notice Do not scratch or scrape the contacts of the battery. If necessary, wipe the contacts of the battery with a dry, lint-free cloth to remove any dirt, oil or grease. Storing batteries When not in use for a month or more, batteries should be stored correctly to prolong their life. Remove the battery from the radio before storage. Fully charge the battery if storing for less than one month. Charge the battery to about 30% if storing for lon-

ger than one month. Store the battery in a cool dry place. Using batteries after storage Batteries that have been stored for any length of time must be charged before being used. See "Charging the battery" on page 135. Disposing of batteries Run the battery flat before disposing of it. When disposing of the battery, be sure to do so in an environmentally sensitive manner. Please contact your radio provider for information on recycling programs in your area. See "Environmental responsibilities" on page 7 for more information. 138 Charging and caring for batteries 13 Troubleshooting This section describes troubleshooting procedures, and basic maintenance.
