FCC ID: MMA75503A APPENDIX 5 USERS MANUAL EIGHT (8) PAGE USER INSTRUCTIONS FOLLOW THIS SHEET USERS MANUAL FCC ID: HHA75503A APPENDIX 5 TIPS FOR GETTING THE MOST FROM YOUR 75-503 Due to the band of opemtion (462/467 MHz) the 75-503 provides communications that are virtually free of atmospheric interference (skip) that is oommon on Iowa“ frequency bands. Along with this and an antenna system that is way eflicient as compared to othu unlioensed radio bands, communications range is surprisingly good. Many times the limits to maximum possible range are environmental factors such as blockage eaused by trees, buildings. hills, or other obstructions. lf you find oommunioation is not possible, many times this can be overcome by moving only a few fat to a new location. Range may he reduced while ope-ating in a vehicle or fi'om inside to outside a metal building. Batm'y condition also affects range. The 75-503 operates bat on alkaline batteria. While this unit has been designed with gaskets for water resistance and ruggedness it is a precision prime of electronic equipment that should not be exposed to water or handled carelessly. Normal care should result in years of trouble flee operation. Do not leave batteries installed over a long period of time as leakage may occur that can destroy the radio. Always save your receipt, as it is required for warranty consideration. PREPARATION BATTERIES 75503 radios operate with 3 AA alkaline batteries or Ni-ead batteries (batteries not supplied). Alkaline batteries will provide about 24 hours of use. Ni—oad batteries provide about 8 hours of use. Ni-Cad batteries must be charged print to use. Charge time is ll) hours with the wall charger (not supplied). Do not mix battu'y types in the radio. To Install Batteries: 1. Hold the radio face down. Press the latch so it swings away from the oover. 2. Lin. the battery cover ofi'the unit. 3. Insert 3 AA batteries observing the proper polarity. 4. Replace the battery oovm' ova the hatteria and hasten with the latch. Low Battery/Transmit lndicamr: The “TX/BAT!" LED on the limit of the radio will light when the unit is transmitting and when not transmitting ifthe batteries are low. » BELT (Eur The 75503 canes standard with a belt clip. Attach it to the radio back by sliding the top of the clip up over the two rectangular bosses on the back of the radio until it snaps into place. To detach the belt clip, press the lever inside the top of the clip away li'om the radio body and slide the clip towardihe bottom of the radio. QUICK USE INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Install li'esh alkaline or fully charged Ni—cad batteries. 2. Turn the unit on by turning the volume cmtml clockwise. 3. To talk pm the FIT (push-(mam) buttm on the side of the radio and talk into the front ofthe radio. 4. To listen release the FIT button. 5. Volume and other functions maybe adjusted as daunted later. POWER SAVE CIRCUIT This part of the operation of the radio is completely automatic and on adjustable. When thendiohasnotmsmittedorrweivedasigualfornbwtssecondsitwill begin toeycle from asleepmodetofully on. This occurs about once a second. lfa signal is received or you cause the unit to transmit the radio will become fully awake.

TO CHANGE THE CHANNEL IN USE Select the channel by sliding the channel switch to position I, 2, or 3. These selections correspond to channels I, 3, an 5 on any 14 channel FRS radio. ‘ CARE OF RECHARGEABLE Nl-CAD BATTERIES ALWAYS DlSPOSE OF BATTERIES PROPERLY Always follow the bawwy manufactures recommendations for charging and disposing ofNi-Cad batteries. " The following is meant as general infonnation regarding Ni-Cad batteries. 1. Occasionally allow the batteries to fully discharge before recharging. Full discharge will be indicated by the low bauu'y indientor coming on dining receive operation. 2. Always allow the hattay to fully charge before using. This requires 10 hours with the optimal charger. 3. The above will prevent the hands frmn developing “memory" whid: efiectively reduces their mpacity. 4. It is better to store Ni-Cad batteries that are discharged rather than charged. SERVICE: Ifit ever bwomes necessary to return your unit fix service: Pack the unit in its original box and packing. Improper packing may result in damage during shipment. Include a full description of any problems and a daytime telephone number. For warranty service include a photocopy ofthe hill of sale or other proof of purchase showing the date of sale. Include a money order for $7.50 to cover shipping and handling (this may not be required in some Salas) You do not need to nan-m accessory items (brackets, screws, power cord, antenna, etc) unless they maybe directly related to the problem.
