CARE OF RECHARGEABLE NI-CAD AND NI-MH BATTERIES 
 
PLEASE ALWAYS DISPOSE OF BATTERIES PROPERLY 
 
Always follow the battery manufacturers recommendations for charging and disposing of Ni-Cad 
and Ni-MH batteries.  
 
General information regarding Ni-Cad/Ni-MH batteries; 
 
1. Occasionally allow the batteries to fully discharge before recharging. Full discharge will be 
indicated by the low battery indicator coming on during receive operation. 
 
2. Always allow the battery to fully charge before using. This requires 10 hours with  
 
the approved charger. (Ni-MH batteries require 16 hours for full charge.) 
 
3. The above will prevent the batteries from developing “memory” which effectively reduces their 
capacity. 
 
4. It is better to store Ni-Cad batteries that are discharged rather than charged.  
 
Ni-MH batteries are best stored charged.
