Do not transmit more than 50% of time. It is important as the radio generates measurable RF
energy exposure only when transmitting.
Do not open the radio. Any unauthorized modification may violate FCC rules and invalidate
the guarantee.
Radio frequency signals transmitted may cause interference to hearing aids.
Turn off the radio when near medical equipment.
This product should not be used by people with pacemakers.
Do not use the radio when driving a vehicle or operating machinery.
Do not use the radio when on board aircraft.
Do not hold the antenna when transmitting.

Two-way Radio Operation
The device was tested for typical body-worn operations using the supplied belt-clip. To maintain
compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, body-worn operations are restricted to the
supplied belt-clip. For hand-held operation, the radio should be held at least 1 inch (2.5cm) from
the user’s face. The use of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply with
FCC RF exposure requirements and should be avoided. For more information about RF exposure,
please visit the FCC web site at www.fcc.gov.

GETTING STARTED
Congratulations on your purchase of this state-of-the-art RCA two-way radio!
Please read this operation manual carefully before using your new radio to ensure that you operate
it both correctly and safely.
Installing the Batteries
Your radio uses four AAA
alkaline batteries and beeps when
the batteries are low.
1. Turn the radio off.
2. With the back of the radio
facing you, lift the battery
latch up to release the battery
cover and remove the cover.
3. Insert four AAA alkaline batteries as shown on the inside of the battery compartment.
4. Reposition the battery cover and press down to secure.
NOTE: The R1010 model radio can use a NiMH rechargeable battery instead of four AAA
batteries. A rechargeable battery upgrade kit is available.
Installing the NiMH Battery Pack:
1. Follow step 2 above to remove the battery cover.
2. Remove the battery pack from the clear plastic bag. Do not disassemble or unwrap the
battery pack.
3. Insert the NiMH battery pack so the metal contacts on the side of the battery are facing
outward from the radio to connect with the contacts on the battery door.
4. Reposition the battery cover and press down to secure.
Battery Meter
The battery icon shows the battery charge level, from full
to
empty. When the battery is
empty, the radio chirps periodically after you release the PTT button. The radio powers off when

Interference Eliminator Code
Interference Eliminator Codes help minimize interference by providing you with a choice of code
combinations. Your radio has 38 Interference Eliminator Codes. Codes 1 – 38 are the standard
