DLR Series Radio Specifications
The radio's model is shown on the back of the radio and provides the following information:
Table 1: DLR Series Radio Specifications
| Model | Frequency Band | Transmit Power (Watts) | Number of Channels | Antenna |

BATTERY FEATURES
DLR Series radios provide standard Lithium-Ion batteries.
Note: Batteries with different capacities and operational life may be available in future.
About the Li-Ion Battery
The DLR Series radio comes equipped with a rechargeable Li-Ion battery. This battery should be fully charged before initial use to ensure optimum capacity and performance.
Battery life is determined by several factors. Among the more critical are the regular overcharge of batteries and the average depth of discharge with each cycle. Typically, the greater the overcharge and the deeper the average discharge, the fewer cycles a battery will last. For example, a battery which is overcharged and discharged 100% several times a day, lasts fewer cycles than a battery that receives less of an overcharge and is discharged to 50% per day. Further, a battery which receives minimal overcharging and averages only 25% discharge, lasts even longer.
Motorola Solutions batteries are designed specifically to be used with a Motorola Solutions charger and vice versa. Charging in non-Motorola Solutions equipment may lead to battery damage and void the battery warranty. The battery should be at about 77°F (25°C) (room temperature), whenever possible. Charging a cold battery (below 50°F [10°C]) may result in leakage of electrolyte and ultimately in failure of the battery. Charging a hot battery (above 95°F [35°C]) results in reduced discharge capacity, affecting the performance of the radio. Motorola Solutions rapid-rate battery chargers contain a temperature-sensing circuit to ensure that batteries are charged within the temperature limits stated above.
Battery Recycling and Disposal
Li-Ion rechargeable batteries can be recycled. However, recycling facilities may not be available in all areas. Under various U.S. state laws and the laws of several other countries, batteries must be recycled and cannot be disposed of in landfills or incinerators. Contact your local waste management agency for specific requirements and information in your area. Motorola Solutions fully endorses and encourages the recycling of Li-Ion batteries. In the U.S. and Canada, Motorola Solutions participates in the nationwide Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC) program for Li-Ion battery collection and recycling.
Many retailers and dealers participate in this program. For the location of the drop-off facility closest to you, access RBRC's Internet web site at:
www.rbrc.com
or call:
1-800-8-BATTERY
This internet site and telephone number also provides other useful information concerning recycling options for consumers, businesses and governmental agencies.
