Other batteries may be available. For more information, see “Battery Features” on page 12.

English 11RADIO OVERVIEWThis User Guide covers multiple DLR Series models, and may detail some features your radio does not have. The radio’s model is shown on the back of the radio and provides the following information: Table 1: DLR Series Radio SpecificationsModel Frequency BandTransmit Power (Watts)Number of Channels AntennaDLR1020 ISM 900 MHz 1 2 Non-removableDLR1060 ISM 900 MHz 1 6 Non-removable

English 12RADIO OVERVIEWBATTERY FEATURESDLR Series radios provide the standard Lithium-Ion Note: Batteries that come in different capacities that defines the battery life may be available in future.About the Li-Ion BatteryThe DLR Series radio comes equipped with a rechargeable Li-Ion battery. This battery should be fully charged before initial use to ensure optimum capacity and performance. Battery life is determined by several factors. Among the more critical are the regular overcharge of batteries and the average depth of discharge with each cycle. Typically, the greater the overcharge and the deeper the average discharge, the fewer cycles a battery will last. For example, a battery which is overcharged and discharged 100% several times a day, lasts fewer cycles than a battery that receives less of an overcharge and is discharged to 50% per day. Further, a battery which receives minimal overcharging and averages only 25% discharge, lasts even longer.Motorola batteries are designed specifically to be used with a Motorola charger and vice versa. Charging in non-Motorola equipment may lead to battery damage and void the battery warranty. The battery should be at about 77°F (25°C) (room temperature), whenever possible. Charging a cold battery (below 50° F [10°C]) may result in leakage of electrolyte and ultimately in failure of the battery. Charging a hot battery (above 95°F [35°C]) results in reduced discharge capacity, affecting the performance of the radio. Motorola rapid-rate battery chargers contain a temperature-sensing circuit to ensure that batteries are charged within the temperature limits stated above.

English 13RADIO OVERVIEWBattery Recycling and DisposalLi-Ion rechargeable batteries can be recycled. However, recycling facilities may not be available in all areas. Under various U.S. state laws and the laws of several other countries, batteries must be recycled and cannot be disposed of in landfills or incinerators. Contact your local waste management agency for specific requirements and information in your area. Motorola fully endorses and encourages the recycling of Li-Ion batteries. In the U.S. and Canada, Motorola participates in the nationwide Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC) program for Li-Ion battery collection and recycling. Many retailers and dealers participate in this program. For the location of the drop-off facility closest to you, access RBRC's Internet web site at:www.rbrc.com or call: 1-800-8-BATTERYThis internet site and telephone number also provides other useful information concerning recycling options for consumers, businesses and governmental agencies.
