Beeping sound coming from your radio typically indicate issue with the battery. The alert may simply mean that your battery is almost dead, so try charged it or swapping in a fully charged battery.
I hope this is helpful? PLEASE "ACCEPT" and mark it "HELPFUL" to complement my little effort. Hope to bring you more detailed answers.
