These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can generate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that the interference will not occur in a particular

ATTENTION (U.S.A. Only):
The RBRC Recycle seal found on KENWOOD
nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery packs indicates
KENWOOD’s voluntary participation in an industry
program to collect and recycle Ni-Cd batteries after
their operating life has expired. The RBRC program
is an alternative to disposing Ni-Cd batteries with
your regular refuse or in municipal waste streams,
which is illegal in some areas.
For information on Ni-Cd battery recycling in your area, call (toll free)
1-800-8-BATTERY (1-800-822-8837).
KENWOOD’s involvement in this program is part of our commitment

PREPARATION
■ Installing/RemovingtheOptionalBatteryPack
The optional KNB-14 or KNB-15A battery pack is not
charged at the factory. Charge the pack before use. If
after purchase or extended storage (greater than
2 months), battery capacity is found to be low, the
battery pack needs recharging. Repeating the charge/
discharge cycles two or three times will restore the
battery to its normal capacity.
1 Position the four grooves on the inside edges of the
battery pack over the corresponding guides on the
back of the transceiver.
2 Slide the battery pack along the back of the
transceiver until the release catch on the base of
the transceiver locks the battery pack in place.
3 To remove the battery pack, grasp the pack near
its tabs, pull back on the release catch, then
slide the pack away from the transceiver.
CAUTION:
◆
Do not recharge the battery pack if it is already fully charged. If you
do this, you will overcharge the battery pack which may shorten its
life or damage it.
◆
After recharging the battery pack, disconnect it from the charger. If,
having recharged the battery pack, the power to the charger is
turned off and then back on while the pack is still connected,
recharging will start again and the battery pack will become
overcharged.
◆
Do not short the battery pack terminals or dispose of the battery by
fire. Never attempt to remove the case from the battery pack.
■ InstallingtheAntenna
Holding the provided antenna at its base, screw the
antenna into the connector on the top panel of the
transceiver.
■ InstallingtheCapOvertheSpeaker-MicJacks
Use the supplied screw (3 mm x 6 mm) to install the
cap over the speaker-mic jacks if a speakermicrophone is not used.
Cap
■ InstallingtheSpeaker-Microphone
Insert the speaker-microphone plugs into the SP/MIC
jacks. Attach the locking bracket using the supplied
screw (3 mm x 6 mm).
Bracket
■ InstallingtheBeltHook
If necessary, attach the belt hook using the two
3 mm x 8 mm screws from the supplied screw set.
GETTING ACQUAINTED
Antenna
Microphone
2 3
Speaker
Not
used
The transceiver is shown with the optional
KNB-14 battery pack installed.
1 ANTENNA connector
Connect the supplied antenna to this connector.
2 LED indicator
Lights red while transmitting. Flashes red while
transmitting if the battery pack voltage is low.
Recharge or replace the battery pack at this time.
The LED lights green while receiving a station. The
LED flashes orange if, while a channel programmed
with 2-Tone signaling is selected, the same 2-Tone
signaling is received as is programmed or you press
and release the [PTT] switch. Press the [MONI] button
to cancel the flashing state. The flashing indication
only functions if your dealer activates the 2-Tone
function on your transceiver.
3 CHANNEL selector
Turn clockwise or counterclockwise to select your
desired channel from a maximum of 4 channels.
4 POWER/VOL control
Turn clockwise to switch ON the transceiver. Turn
counterclockwise fully to switch OFF the transceiver.
Also adjusts the volume level.
5 PTT (Push-to-Talk) switch
Press and speak into the microphone to call another
station.
6 MONI button
Press to monitor activity on your selected channel.
Also used with 2-Tone Signaling to mute the speaker
after this function has opened squelch.
7 Speaker-microphone jacks
If desired, connect a speaker-microphone here.
10
RECEIVING
Your dealer may have programmed QT, DQT, or 2-Tone
signaling for the channel that you select. If so
programmed, you will hear transmissions from other
transceivers IN YOUR SYSTEM ONLY! Otherwise, you
will hear ALL TRANSMISSIONS made by ANY stations
using the same channel.
1 Switch ON the transceiver by turning the POWER/VOL
control clockwise.
•
A “click” is heard. A beep also sounds if so
programmed by your dealer.
To switch OFF the transceiver, turn the POWER/VOL
control counterclockwise until a click is heard.
2 To adjust the volume, turn the POWER/VOL control
while using [MONI] to listen to channel background
noise.
•
While communicating with other parties, you may
need to adjust the volume more precisely.
3 Use the CHANNEL selector to choose your regular
operating channel.
•
Turning the selector clockwise increases the
channel number and turning the selector
counterclockwise decreases the channel number.
•
Non-programmed channels cannot be used.
Selecting a channel that is unprogrammed
generates an Alert beep.
11
Note:
◆
◆
◆
Your dealer selects one of four methods of operation for [MONI]:
• Hold down the button to open the squelch; release the button to
close the squelch, or
• Hold down the button to deactivate QT, DQT, or 2-Tone
decoding; release the button to activate decoding, or
• Press the button to deactivate QT, DQT, or 2-Tone decoding;
press the button again to activate decoding.
• Disabled.
If your transceiver is programmed with QT, DQT, or 2-Tone
Signaling, pressing [MONI] will not affect output from the speaker;
even at full volume there will be virtually no noise audible from the
speaker.
Receiving a signal with the same 2-Tone signaling as is
programmed in your transceiver will cause the LED indicator to flash
orange. An alert tone is heard if so programmed by your dealer.
CALLING
1 Press [MONI], then listen for a few seconds to make
certain that the channel is not being used.
2 Hold the transceiver about 3 ~ 4 cm (1 1/2 inches) from
your lips, press the [PTT] switch, and speak in your
normal speaking voice.
•
The LED lights red while you are transmitting.
3 Release the [PTT] switch to return to the receive mode.
12
■ Time-OutTimer(TOT)
The purpose of the time-out timer is to automatically
interrupt continuous transmissions after a specified
time elapses. Holding down [PTT] for longer than the
programmed time causes the transceiver to stop
transmitting and generate a warning tone. Releasing
[PTT] cancels the warning tone.
Your dealer also can program a warning function that
alerts you just before the time-out timer stops your
transmission. After [PTT] is held down for the time
specified by your dealer, a warning tone sounds that is
different from the time-out timer tone.
■ BusyChannelLockout
Activated or deactivated by your dealer, this function
prevents you from interfering with other stations who
may be using a channel. Pressing [PTT] while the
selected channel is in use causes your transceiver to
generate an audible warning tone. Your transceiver is
inhibited in this situation so it will not transmit. Release
[PTT] to cancel the alarm and restore the receive
mode.
13
■ BatteryVoltageLevel
While holding down [PTT], the battery voltage level is
checked. When the voltage level drops to the
predetermined value, the LED flashes red. When the
voltage level drops further, the transceiver stops
transmitting and generates an alarm. If this occurs,
recharge the battery pack.
