Economy mode conserves battery power when
there is no activity on the radio by turning off some
internal circuitry after a programmed period of
inactivity.
While economy mode is active, the control head
display backlighting may dim or switch off. This
feature of economy mode may be turned on and off
using the function menu (see "User Function
Menu" on page 34).
Operating any of the control head controls, or the
PTT key, returns the radio to the fully active state.
Emergency mode is activated either by a hidden
switch or by giving a press of the auxiliary key
( ). An emergency 5-tone or G-STAR
encoded call is then sent out to a predetermined
location, such as your dispatcher. Your radio must
have either 5-tone or G-STAR signaling installed
and be programmed appropriately.
Once emergency mode is activated, your radio may
repeatedly transmit the emergency sequence. Dur-
ing this time, you may be able to make calls using
the PTT key and hear incoming traffic. The radio
can be reset to normal operation at any time by
turning the radio off, then on.

Stealth Emergency

When emergency mode is activated, all radio indi-
cators will remain unchanged, you will not hear any
channel traffic and you may not be able to make
PTT transmissions. Stealth Emergency is a pro-
grammed option. The radio can be reset to normal
