1. GETTING STARTED 1.1 Regulations and Safety Warnings This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference. (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Important: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this device.
RF Exposure Information WARNING! Read this information before using the radio. In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies.
The information listed above provides the user with the information needed to make him or her aware of RF exposure, and what to do to as-sure that this radio operates with the FCC RF exposure limits of this radio. Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility During transmissions, Our radio generates RF energy that can possibly cause interference with other devices or systems. To avoid such interference, turn off the radio in areas where signs are posted to do so.
Do not use the radio with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please contact your local dealer for a replacement antenna. Hand-held Operation (Held-to-Face) This device was evaluated for typical hand-held (held-to- face) operations with a 2 inch spacing from the front of the radio. For hand-held operation, the radio should be held 2 inch from the user's face in order to comply with FCC RF exposure requirements.

5. BASIC OPERATIONS 5.1 Power on the radio • Turning the unit on To turn the unit on, simply rotate the volume/power knob clockwise until you hear a "click". If your radio powers on correctly there should be an audible double beep after about one second and the display will show a message or flash the LCD depending on settings for about one second. Then it will display a frequency or channel. If the Voice prompt is enabled, the voice will announce "frequency mode" or "channel mode".
When receiving a call, the green LED is on. NOTE: To ensure the best reception volume, keep the distance between the microphone and the mouth at the time of transmission from 2.5 cm to 5 cm. 5.4 Channel selection There are two modes of operation: Frequency (VFO) mode, and Channel or Memory (MR) mode. For everyday use, Channel (MR) mode is going to be a whole lot more practical than Frequency (VFO) mode. However, Frequency (VFO) mode is very handy for experimentation out in the field.
your area. 5.6 Channel (MR) mode The use of Channel (MR) mode is dependent on actually having programmed in some channels to use. Once you have channels programmed and ready, you can use the ▲/▼ keys or the encoder to navigate between channels. 6. ADVANCED FEATURES 6.1 Frequency scanning This function can scan the frequency. a.
