Low Battery Alert:

the bars will disappear.

ALKALINE BATIERIES.
To Remove:
Carefully use a rocking motion to
pull the belt clip out of the radio.

Interference Eliminator Code:
Codes .filter out static, noise and unwanted messages
on radio channels. You can only communicate with
-, radios using the same channel and code.
Since radio channels can be monitored, this will not
make your conversations private. To avoid congested
•. channels, change the radio's channel/code setting.
Note: Remove batteries before storing your radio
for extended periods. Batteries corrode over time and
may cause permanent damage to your radio.
