4. Operating

Proper charging and usage are crucial for maximizing the lifespan and performance of your Estry battery.

4.1 Charging the Battery

• Always use the original HYTERA charger or a compatible charger specifically designed for Li-ion batteries.
• Connect the radio with the installed battery to the charger. Ensure the charging indicator on the radio or charger illuminates, indicating a charging state.
• Allow the battery to charge fully. The charging indicator will typically change color or turn off when charging is complete.
• Avoid overcharging for extended periods once the battery is full, although the battery has built-in overcharge protection.

4.2 Usage Tips

• Avoid completely discharging the battery. While the battery has over-discharge protection, frequent deep discharges can reduce overall battery life.
• For optimal performance, try to keep the battery charge between 20% and 80% when possible.
• If the radio will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery and store it as per the 'Maintenance' section.

5. Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will help extend the life of your Estry battery.

• Storage: If storing the battery for an extended period (more than one month), store it in a cool, dry place (ideally between 0°C and 25°C or 32°F and 77°F) with approximately 50% charge. Avoid extreme temperatures.
• Cleaning: Periodically clean the battery contacts with a clean, dry cloth to ensure good electrical connection. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Safety: Do not disassemble, puncture, or expose the battery to fire or water. Do not short-circuit the terminals.
• Disposal: Dispose of old batteries responsibly according to local regulations. Do not dispose of batteries in household waste.
