![62BASIC OPERATION ■Turning ON the power qPush [ ] to turn ON the power. w If the transceiver is programmed for a start up password, input the digit codes that were set by your dealer. • The keys shown below can be used for password input: The transceiver detects numbers in the same block as identical. Therefore “01234” and “56789” are the same.KEYNUMBER 0549382716 e If the “PASSWORD” indication does not clear after input-ting 6 digits, the input code number may be incorrect. Turn OFF the power and re-enter your password. ■Channel selectionThere are several ways to select channels, and they may dif-fer, depending on your system set up.NON-ZONE TYPE:To select the desired operating channel: ➥Push [CH Up] or [CH Down]. ➥Push one of [MR-CH 1] to [MR-CH 4].ZONE TYPE:To select the desired operating channel: ➥Push [Zone], then push [CH Up] or [CH Down].VOTING OPERATION:The transceiver automatically starts scanning when a zone, specified for the voting operation, is selected.The voting scan detects the S-meter of the repeater and au-tomatically selects the strongest station.AUTOMATIC SCAN TYPE:Channel setting is not necessary for this type. When turning ON the power, the transceiver automatically starts scanning. Scanning stops when a signal is detected.](https://usermanual.wiki/ICOM-orporated/333212.User-Manual-IC-F6220D/User-Guide-3854478-Page-10.png)

Hold the microphone 5 to 10 cm (2 to 4 inches) from your mouth, then speak into the microphone at a normal voice level. DTransmitting notes• Transmit inhibit function The transceiver has several inhibit functions which restrict transmission under the following conditions: - The channel is busy. However, depending on the preprogrammed settings, you can transmit when the call includes an unmatching (or matching) CTCSS (DTCS), RAN code*, or Individual or Talk-group ID*. * Digital operation only - The selected channel is a ‘receive only’ channel.• Time-out timer If continuous transmission exceeds the preprogrammed time-out timer limit, the transmission is cut off.• Penalty timer After the transmission is cut off by the time-out timer, trans-mission is further inhibited for the preprogrammed penalty timer period.](https://usermanual.wiki/ICOM-orporated/333212.User-Manual-IC-F6220D/User-Guide-3854478-Page-11.png)
