"Follow-Me" Scan feature checks a User-assigned Priority Channel regularly as
you scan the other channels. Thus, if only Channels 1, 3, and 5 (of the 8 available
channels) are designated for "Scanning," the user may nonetheless assign Channel
2 as the "User-assigned" Priority Channel via the "Follow-Me" feature.
To activate "Follow-Me" scanning, first select the channel you want to designate
as the "User-Assigned Priority Channel" and press (or press and hold)the assigned
programmable key. Then press (or press and hold) the Channel Up/Down key
(generally the [  ] / [  ] button) to recall to the "Scanning Start" channel which has
been programmed by your dealer to activate the scanner. When the scanner stops
on an "Active" channel, the User-assigned Priority Channel will automatically
be checked every few seconds; if activity is found on the User-assigned Priority
Channel, the radio will switch between it and the Dealer-Assigned Priority Chan-
nel, if any.

To set up a "Dual Watch" frequency pair using the "Follow-Me" feature, select a
channel using the Channel Up/Down key (generally the [  ] / [  ] button). Now
press (or press and hold) the assigned programmable key; pressing the assigned
programmable key locks the current channel as the User-assigned Priority Channel.
Now press (or press and hold) the Channel Up/Down key to select another channel
(not the "Scanning Start" channel). Your radio will now switch back-and-forth be-
tween the currently-selected channel and the User-assigned Priority Channel.
During "Follow-Me" scanning (after you have pressed the key), you can set up the
"Dual Watch" feature by pressing (or press and holding) the Channel Up/Down
key to another channel. The radio will then scan back and forth between the origi-
nal User-assigned Priority Channel and the newly-selected channel.
The Priority Channel you have assigned (before pressing the key) will be retained
in memory until you change it.

" Low " icon will be indicated on the display.
