Uniden Voyager Battery Charge Problem

I can't get the battery to take a charge.  What is the 3rd post on the battery for? Does it have a purpose during charging?

Unknown what the 3rd post is used for.  I have never personally worked on this model radio.

It appears to be a lithium ion battery.  That being the case, if it no longer holds a charge the battery has likely been cooked off and will require replacement.
