3AT-D878UV Digital DMR and Analog UHF/VHF Two Way Radio2.2 Charger Supplied2.3 Use Caution with the Li-ion BatteryThe Li-ion battery pack is not charged at the factory; please charge it before use.Charging the battery pack for the first time after purchase or extended storage (more than 2 months) may not bring the battery pack to its normal maximum operating capacity. Best operation will require  fully charging/discharging the battery two or three times before the operating capacity will reach its best performance. The battery pack life may be depleted when its operating time decreases even though it has been fully and correctly charged. If this is the case, replace the battery pack.Please use the specied charger provided by AnyTone. Other models may cause explosion and personal injury. After installing the battery pack, and if the radio displays low battery with a red ashing lamp or voice prompt, please charge the battery.a. Do not short the battery terminals or throw the battery into a re. Never attempt to remove the casing from the battery pack, as AnyTone cannot be held responsible for any accident caused by modifying the battery.b. The ambient temperature should be between 5℃-40℃ (40˚F -  105˚F) while charging the battery. Charging outside this range may not fully charge the battery.c. Please turn off the radio before inserting it into the charger. It may otherwise interfere with correct charging.d. To avoid interfering with the charging cycle, please do not cut off the power or remove the battery during charging until the green light is on.e. Do not recharge the battery pack if it is fully charged. This may shorten the life of the battery pack or damage the battery pack.f.  Do not charge the battery or the radio if it is damp. Dry it before charging to avoid damage.2.1 Charging the Battery Pack2. BATTERY INFORMATION
4AT-D878UV Digital DMR and Analog UHF/VHF Two Way Radio2.4 How to ChargeWARNING: »When keys, ornamental chain or other electric metals contact the battery terminal, the battery may become damage or injure a human. If the battery terminals are short circuited it will generate a lot of heat. Take care when carrying and using the battery. Remember to put the battery or radio into an insulated container. Do not put it into a metal container.a. Plug the AC adaptor into the AC outlet, and then plug the cable of the AC adaptor into the DC jack located on the back of the charger. The indicator light blinks orange and is then ready to charge a battery.b. Plug the battery or the radio into the charger. Make sure the battery terminals are good in contact with charging terminals. The indicator light turns to red--- charging begins.c. It takes approximately 2-5 hours to fully charge the battery. When the lamp lights green, the charging is completed. Remove the battery or the radio unit with its battery from socket »when charging a radio (with battery) the indicating lamp will not turn into green to show the fully charged status if the radio is powered on. Only when the radio is switched off will the lamp indicate normal operation. The radio consumes energy when it is power-on, and the charger cannot detect the correct battery voltage when the battery has been fully charged. So the charger will charge the battery in constant voltage mode and fail to indicate correctly when the battery has been fully charged.2. BATTERY INFORMATION

LED Indicator:Charging Status Indicator StatusStandby (Self-examine lights red 1second when power on)    NoneCharging (Charge in a constant current)   Lights red for about 3 hoursFully charged (Charge in a constant voltage)  Lights green »Trouble means battery too warm, battery short-circuited or charger short-circuited.2.5 Normal Charging Tipsa. Self-Test: When powering on the charger, the red light turns on and then turns off and stays off, which means the charger has passed it self- test and it is ready to charge the battery. If the light remains orange or the red light blinks, it means the charger cannot pass it self-test and cannot charge the battery.b. Trickle Pre-Charging: If red light blinks when the battery is inserted into the charger, it means that the battery voltage is low and the charger is trickle-charging the battery (Pre-Charging Mode). The charger will automatically turn into normal charging when the battery reaches a certain electric charge, and if the red light stops blinking, it means the battery voltage has reached a certain level, and the charger will charge the battery in normal mode.e. Charging Process2. BATTERY INFORMATION
6AT-D878UV Digital DMR and Analog UHF/VHF Two Way Radio »Trickle charging (Pre-Charging Mode) time cannot last beyond 30 minutes. If the indicating lamp still blinks red after 30-minute trickle-charging, it means that the charger cannot charge the battery correctly. Please check whether the battery or charger is damaged. »Do not short circuit the battery terminals. »Never attempt to remove the casing from the battery pack. »Never store the battery in unsafe surroundings, as a short may cause an explosion. »Do not put the battery in a hot environment or throw it into a re, as it may cause an explosion.2.6 How to Store the Batterya.

ON-LINE SERVICE AND SUPPORT
41 AT-D878UV Digital DMR and Analog UHF/VHF Two Way RadioThe Anytone AT-D878UV DMR handheld transceiver has been carefully designed to provide you with years of safe, reliable operation. As with  all electrical equipment, however, there are a few basic precautions you should take to avoid hurting yourself or damaging the radio:• Read the instructions  in  this handbook carefully. Be sure  to  save it for future reference.•  Read  and  follow  all  warning  and  instruction  labels  on  the  radio  and owner’s manual.•  Do  not  carry  the  transceiver  by  the  antenna. This  may  damage  the antenna or antenna terminal. Grasp the handheld by its base (not the antenna) when you need to place or remove it.• Do not keep the radio with the antenna very close to, or touching exposed parts of the body, while transmitting. Anytone radios will perform best, if you speak 2-4 inches away from the microphone and the radio is vertical. • Be sure the “PTT” key is not pressed when you do not need to transmit.• Do not operate the radio near unshielded electrical blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere.• Do  not  transmit  without  the  antenna  fitted on  the  radio. Though  it is provided with a protection, it may damage the TX output nal stage.• Respect the environment conditions. The radio is designed to be used in heavy environments, however avoid exposing it to extremely hot or cold temperature (out of the range between –20°C to +55°C). Do not expose the transceiver to excessive vibrations as well as dusty or rainy locations.• Never try to disassemble or service the radio by yourself (aside from the routine maintenance described in this handbook). It may cause damage to the radio transceiver and void your warranty requiring extensive repair work. Always contact your local dealer for assistance.•  Use  only  authorized  accessories.  Using  non Anytone  radio  brand accessories may seriously damage your handheld transceiver and void your warranty.• Do not spill liquid of any kind into your radio. If the transceiver gets wet, immediately dry it by a soft and clean cloth.• Switch the radio off before you clean it. Follow the directions described in the paragraph “Care and maintenance”.SAFETY
42AT-D878UV Digital DMR and Analog UHF/VHF Two Way Radio• Handle the battery properly. Never place the LI-ion battery in your pocket or purse with loose coins. This could result in short circuiting the battery. •  Be  certain  that  your  power  source  matches  the  rating  listed  for  the supplied battery charger (AC adapter). If you are not sure, check with your authorized Anytone dealer.• Avoid damaging the power cable of  the  battery  charger. Do not step on or place anything on it as this could result in a damaged charger power cord. This product complies with the requirements of the Council Directives 89/336/EEC and 73/23/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the member states relating to electromagnetic compatibility and low voltage.Your wireless hand-held portable transceiver contains a low power transmitter. When the Push-to-Talk (PTT) button is pressed it sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. The device is authorized to operate at a duty factor not to exceed 50% TX and 50% RX. In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for hand-held wireless devices. To maintain compliance with the FCC’s RF exposure guidelines, this transmitter and its antenna must maintain a separation distance of least 2 inches from your face. Speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up and away from the face at the required separation distance. The belt clip is for storage purposes only. AVOID TRANSMITING ON HIGH POWER WHILE RADIO IS ATTACHED TO YOUR BELT. To transmit, hold the device away from your body and ensure the antenna is at least 2 inches from your body when transmitting.WARNINGSAFETY
