Your GMRS480 radio uses the NiMH battery pack or 4 AA

alkaline batteries. If alkaline batteries are used, we 

recommend using Duracell Ultra alkaline batteries.

To install the NiMH Battery Pack:

1) Make sure your radio is off.

2) Remove the battery compartment

door by firmly moving the clip away from 

the door allowing the door to be removed.

3) Place the pack in the compartment, paying close 

attention to the round alignment key. If the pack is

installed incorrectly, the unit will not operate and 

the compartment door will not close properly.

4) Replace the battery compartment and secure the clip

back in place.

5) The battery pack must be charged before using it for the

first time. Insert the charger adapter into the accessory

jack and allow 12-14 hours charging time to fully charge

the battery pack.

This unit has a battery level meter on the display to indicate

the status of the batteries. When the batteries in the unit are

low, the                    icon will flash and the unit will 

periodically emit a tone. Replace the alkaline batteries 

immediately or if you are using the NiMH battery pack, you

must recharge the batteries in order to continue using 

the radio.

Note: It is recommended that the radio be turned off while

charging. If the unit is turned on, the display will show a C

indicating charging.

Congratulations on your purchase of the Uniden GMRS480

(General Mobile Radio Service) radio. This product is a light-

weight, palm-sized radio. Use it at sporting events to stay in

contact with family and friends, hiking, skiing, outdoors, or in

state-of-the-art device is equipped with many features.
