BATTERY INFORMATION
FOR LONGEST BATTERY LIFE AND USING KNACKS
Three types rechargeable batteries can be used as the supply power, Nickel Cadmium (Ni-Cd), Nickel Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) and
Lithium Ion (Li-ion).
To assure the highest performance and longest cycle life, should you properly use the battery pack comply with following simple
rules:
z To enable you to obtain maximum battery capacity, a new battery must be fully charged for at least 14 to 16 hours
continuously.
z Using a non- Kyosey brand charger may damage your battery, also will expire its warrant.
z You can charge the battery that is connected to a transceiver, but please turn the radio off to fully charge it.
z If possible, store and charge the battery at a room temperature (25℃). Do not charge a cold battery that is at 10℃ or

below, if so may cause the battery to leak and become an inefficacious battery.
z Don’t charge a hot battery that is at above 35℃. This will decrease cycle life.
Note: The Kyosey brand Quick Charger built-in a temperature sensor to ensure your battery charged within above
temperature range.
z New batteries can be stored up to two years without significant cycle loss. Store new / unused batteries at room
temperature in a cool, dry area.
z A battery that has been in storage should be recharged at least 14 to 16 hours continuously before being put into
service.
z Don’t return fully charged batteries to the charger for an "extra boost." This will significantly reduce cycle life.
z Don’t leave your transceiver and battery in the charger when not charging. Continuous charging will shorten battery life
(Don't use your charger as a transceiver stand).
z For optimum battery life and operation, use Kyosey brand chargers only. Our batteries and chargers have been
designed to operate as an integrated energy system.
