Open the battery cover on the bottom of the radio (on the side nearest to the handle).

Slide the battery out and plug the charging jack in.
Voila!

To be safe, don't charge teh battery when it's still inside the radio. You may burn a fuse out if you turn the Tx on right after a charge. Let the battery rest a little while before use.

This is an issue with the M8 and the M11 battery packs which are an integrated Nicad stick.

You can also buy a AA style "pallet" that takes the place of the integrated stick. But with either system - afully charged and peaked TX battery can deliver too much voltage.

Do a search for the M8 or M11 and they'll detail where the fuse is.
