6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your charger, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• No LED Indicator / Charger Not Powering On:
  • Ensure the power adapter is securely plugged into both the charger and a working electrical outlet.
  • Test the electrical outlet with another device to confirm it has power.
  • Check the power adapter cable for any visible damage.
• Radio Not Charging (Solid Red LED Not Appearing):
  • Ensure the radio is correctly seated in the charging slot and making proper contact with the charging terminals.
  • Verify that the radio's battery is properly installed and not fully discharged to a point where it cannot initiate charging.
  • Try a different charging slot to rule out an issue with a specific port.
• Flashing Red LED:
  • This typically indicates a charging error. Remove the radio, wait a few moments, and reinsert it.
  • Ensure the radio and its battery are compatible with the charger.
