extreme heat, deteriorate, or cause other forms of damage to the battery.
Please observe the following prohibitive matters.
DANGER
•
•
•
•
•
Do not disassemble or reconstruct battery!
The battery pack has a safety function and protection circuit to
avoid danger. If they suffer serious damage, the battery may
generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
Do not short-circuit the battery!
Do not join the + and – terminals using any form of metal (such
as a paper clip or wire). Do not carry or store the battery pack in
containers holding metal objects (such as wires, chain-necklace
or hairpins). If the battery pack is short-circuited, excessive
current will flow and the battery may generate heat or smoke,
rupture, or burst into flame. It will also cause metal objects to
heat up.
Do not incinerate or apply heat to the battery!
If the insulator is melted, the gas release vent or safety function is
damaged, or the electrolyte is ignited, the battery may generate
heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
Do not use or leave the battery near fires, stoves, or other
heat generators (areas reaching over 80°C/ 176°F)!
If the polymer separator is melted due to high temperature, an
internal short-circuit may occur in the individual cells and the
battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
Avoid immersing the battery in water or getting it wet by
other means!
If the battery becomes wet, wipe it off with a dry towel before use.
If the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may
charge at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical
reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke,
rupture, or burst into flame.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Do not charge the battery near fires or under direct sunlight!
If the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may
charge at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical
reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke,
rupture, or burst into flame.
Use only the specified charger and observe charging
requirements!
If the battery is charged in unspecified conditions (under high
temperature over the regulated value, excessive high voltage or
current over regulated value, or with a remodelled charger), it
may overcharge or an abnormal chemical reaction may occur.
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into
flame.
Do not pierce the battery with any object, strike it with an
instrument, or step on it!
This may break or deform the battery, causing a short-circuited.
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into
flame.
Do not jar or throw the battery!
An impact may cause the battery to leak, generate heat or
smoke, rupture, and/or burst into flame. If the battery’s protection
circuit is damaged, the battery may charge at an abnormal
current (or voltage), and an abnormal chemical reaction may
occur.
Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any way!
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into
flame.
Do not solder directly onto the battery!
If the insulator is melted or the gas release vent or safety function
is damaged, the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or
burst into flame.
Do not reverse the battery polarity (and terminals)!
When charging a reversed battery, an abnormal chemical
reaction may occur. In some cases, an unexpected large amount
of current may flow upon discharging. The battery may generate
heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
•
•
•
•
•
•
Do not reverse-charge or reverse-connect the battery!
The battery pack has positive and negative poles. If the battery
pack does not smoothly connect with a charger or operating
equipment, do not force it; check the polarity of the battery. If the
battery pack is reverse-connected to the charger, it will be
reverse-charged and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur.
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into
flame.
Do not touch a ruptured and leaking battery!
If the electrolyte liquid from the battery gets into your eyes, wash
your eyes out with fresh water as soon as possible, without
rubbing your eyes. Go to the hospital immediately. If left
untreated, it may cause eye-problems.
Do not charge the battery for longer than the specified time!
If the battery pack has not finished charging even after the
regulated time has passed, stop it. The battery may generate
heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
Do not place the battery pack into a microwave or high
pressure container!
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into
flame.
Keep ruptured and leaking battery packs away from fire!
If the battery pack is leaking (or the battery emits a bad odor),
immediately remove it from flammable areas. Electrolyte leaking
from battery can easily catch on fire and may cause the battery to
generate smoke or burst into flame.
Do not use an abnormal battery!
If the battery pack emits a bad odor, appears to have different
coloring, is deformed, or seems abnormal for any other reason,
remove it from the charger or operating equipment and do not
use it. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst
into flame.
■ Using the Li-ion Battery Pack
•
•
•
Charge the battery pack before using it.
To keep the battery discharge at a minimum, remove the
battery pack from the equipment when it is not in use. Store
the battery pack in a cool and dry location.
When storing the battery pack for a long period:
1 Remove the battery pack from the equipment.
2 Discharge the battery pack, if possible.
3 Store the battery pack in a cool (below 25°C/ 77°F) and
dry location.
■ Characteristics of the Li-ion Battery Pack
•
•
•
•
•
As the battery pack is charged and discharged repeatedly, the
battery capacity decreases.
Even if the battery pack is unused, the battery pack
degrades.
It takes a longer time to charge the battery pack in cooler
areas.
The life of battery pack is shortened when it is charged and
discharged in hotter areas. When the battery pack is stored
in a hot location, the battery pack degrades quicker. Do not
leave the battery pack in vehicles or near heating appliances.
When the battery pack operating time becomes short, even if
it is fully charged, replace the battery pack. Continuing to
charge and discharge the battery pack may result in
electrolyte leakage.
INSTALLING/ REMOVING THE (OPTIONAL) BATTERY PACK

removing the battery pack.
To remove the battery pack,
lift the safety catch, press the
release latch, then pull the
battery pack away from the
transceiver.
Note:
◆ To lift the battery pack safety catch, use a piece of hardened
plastic or metal, such as a screwdriver, that is no more than 6 mm
wide and 1 mm thick. It is imperative that you place the
implement under only the lip of the safety catch so that you do
not damage the release latch.
◆ Before charging a battery pack that is attached to the transceiver,
ensure that the safety catch is firmly closed.
◆ While operating the transceiver using a Li-ion or Ni-MH battery
pack in areas with an ambient temperature of –10°C/ +14°F and
lower, operating time may be shortened.

21
RECEIVING
Select the desired zone and channel using the selector
knob and the Zone Up/ Zone Down or Channel Up/
Channel Down keys. (If the Scan function has been
programmed, you can switch it on or off as desired.)
When you hear a caller’s voice, readjust the volume as
necessary.
•
If signaling has been programmed on the selected channel,
you will hear a call only if the signal tone matches the tone
set up on your transceiver.
Note: Signaling allows your transceiver to code your calls. This
will prevent you from listening to unwanted calls. It does not
make calls private, it only prevents them from being heard by
transceivers set with a different signaling code. Refer to
“SIGNALING” on page 35 for details.
■ Receiving Group Calls (APCO)
When you receive a call on your group channel and the
received group ID matches the ID set up on your
transceiver, you can hear the caller’s voice. Readjust the
volume as necessary.
■ Receiving Individual Calls (APCO)
When you receive an individual call, a ringing tone will
sound and on K2 and K3 model transceivers, the display
will show the caller’s ID. To respond to the call, press and
hold the PTT switch and speak into the transceiver as you
would during a normal transmission.
22
SCAN
Scan is useful for monitoring signals on the transceiver
channels. While scanning, the transceiver checks for a signal
on each channel and only stops on a channel if a signal is
present.
To begin scanning, press the key programmed as Scan.
•
•
•
On K2 and K3 model transceivers, the
icon appears on the
display.
The channels included in the scan list are scanned.
When a signal is detected on a channel, Scan pauses on that
channel. The transceiver will remain on the busy channel until
the signal is no longer present. When the signal “drops out”, the
transceiver will remain on the channel momentarily before Scan
resumes. This delay time is programmed by your dealer. If a
signal is received during the delay time, the transceiver will
remain on the same channel.
To stop scanning, press the Scan key again.
Note: In order for Scan to function, there must be at least 2 channels
added to the scanning sequence. If there are less channels than this,
Scan will not operate.
TEMPORARY CHANNEL LOCKOUT
If a key is programmed with the Scan Delete function, each
channel can be locked out of the scan sequence manually.
During scan, you can temporarily remove specific channels
from the scanning sequence by selecting them and pressing
the Scan Delete key.
•
•
On K2 and K3 model transceivers, the
icon no longer appears
on the display for that channel.
The channel is no longer scanned. However, when scanning is
ended and restarted, the channels will reset and the channel will
again be in the scanning sequence.
23
PRIORITY SCAN
A Priority channel must be programmed in order for Priority
Scan to function.
When using a single Priority channel, the transceiver will
automatically change to the Priority channel when a call is
received on it, even if a call is being received on a normal
channel.
When using dual Priority channels, Priority channel 1 is given
precedence over Priority channel 2. So, if a call is received
on Priority channel 1 while a call is already on Priority
channel 2, the transceiver will automatically change to Priority
channel 1.
•
On K2 and K3 model transceivers, “P1” appears on the display
when the displayed channel is Priority channel 1, “P2” appears
when the displayed channel is Priority channel 2, and “PP”
appears when the displayed channel is both Priority channel 1
and Priority channel 2.
SCAN REVERT
The Scan Revert channel is the channel selected when you
press the PTT switch to transmit during scan. Your dealer can
program 1 of 6 types of Scan Revert channels on your
transceiver:
• Selected: The last channel selected is assigned as the new
revert channel.
• Selected + Talkback: If the channel has been changed, the
newly selected channel is assigned as the new revert
channel. The transceiver “talks back” on the current channel.
• Priority 1/ Priority 2: If your dealer has programmed a
Priority channel (either Priority 1 or Priority 2), this channel is
the revert zone and channel.
• Priority 1 + Talkback/ Priority2 + Talkback: If your dealer
has programmed a Priority channel (either Priority 1 or
Priority 2), this channel is the revert zone and channel. The
transceiver “talks back” on the current receive channel.

SIGNALING
Note: Signaling can be used only in Conventional FM Operation.
QUIET TALK (QT)/ DIGITAL QUIET TALK (DQT)
Your dealer may have programmed QT or DQT signaling on
your transceiver channels. A QT tone/ DQT code is a
sub-audible tone/code which allows you to ignore (not hear)
calls from other parties who are using the same channel.
When a channel is set up with a QT tone or DQT code, squelch
will only open when a call containing a matching tone or code is
received. Likewise, signals that you transmit will only be heard
by parties whose QT/ DQT signaling matches your transceiver.
If a call containing a different tone or code is made on the
same channel you are using, squelch will not open and you
will not hear the call. This allows you to ignore (not hear)
these calls. Although it may seem like you have your own
private channel while using QT/ DQT, other parties can still
hear your calls if they set up their transceiver with the same
tone or code.
■ OPERATOR SELECTABLE TONE (OST) (K2 AND K3 MODELS ONLY)
