BATTERY CHARGING 4 ■■Rapid charging The optional BC-202 rapidly charges of the BP-271 or BP-272 Li-ion battery packs. • Charging period: B P-271 approximately 2.0 hours BP-272 approximately 3.5 hours DD Charging note • Be sure to turn OFF the transceiver power. When the transceiver power cannot be turned OFF, detach the battery pack from the transceiver then charge the battery pack by itself, or charge the battery using regular charging. Otherwise the battery pack will not be charged (the charging indicator on the BC-202 blinks orange about 10 second after the battery pack is installed in BC-202). • T he BC-202 desktop charger can only charge BP-271 or BP-272 Li-ion battery packs. Other types of rechargeable battery, Ni-Cd or Ni-MH cannot be charged. • If the charging indicator blinks orange, there may be a problem with the battery pack or charger. If this occurs, try charging the battery pack alone, without the transceiver, or try using the standard (non-rapid) charger. Contact your dealer if you have problems charging a new battery pack. • NEVER place the transceiver with the battery pack to the desktop charger when the transceiver is connected to the DC power supply. This may cause the charger's malfunction and the charging indicator of the charger lights red. In that case, disconnect the AC adapter from the charger, and then reconnect the AC adapter to the charger. • T he optional CP-23L and OPC-515L can be used instead of the supplied AC adapter.
