are pressed (

that the battery has a charge of 6.0 Volts. A fully
charged battery will have 6.5 Volts or more. A battery
which is almost empty will have 5.6 Volts or less.
Low Battery Alarm
As a reminder that the attached battery needs
recharging or replacing, an alarm signal sounds for a
short time and the message “LOW BATT” appears in
the display. Additionally, the red low battery LED
indicator located on the top side of the radio will flash.
If the radio is left on, the low battery alarm will
be repeated several times and, eventually, the radio
will turn itself off.
If the low battery alarm sounds will a call is in
progress, you should end the call . If the call
continues, the radio will turn itself off after a short
period.
