OPERATIONS
Power on/off and volume
Rotate the power/volume knob clockwise to turn the radio on and to increase the volume level. Rotate the control
counter-clockwise to reduce the volume level and to turn the radio off.
During Power on, the LCD display will show all icons for 1 second and the LCD display will indicate the last channel/
frequency selected.
Transmission
To communicate, all radios in your group must be set to the same band (PMR) and to the same channel.
Hold down briefly the MON button to make sure that the frequency is not busy and then press the PTT button.
For a maximum clarity, hold the device at a distance of about 4/10 cm.
Release the PTT key to receive.
Only one user at a time can talk during radio communications. Therefore, it is important not to transmit when you
are receiving a communication and use the transmission mode sparingly to allow other users to use the feature.
Transmission consumes a significant amount of energy and should therefore be used sparingly to prolong the
battery life.
Alternatively, it is also possible to select a low transmission power.
If you are unable to contact a station that you have no problems in receiving, the station may be using CTCSS
tones or DCS codes
