Installing the Nickel-Metal Hydride Battery
The AU Series radio operates using a Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) rechargeable
battery pack, which proves up to 9 hours1 of usage. A battery, transformer, and drop-
in charger tray are supplied with your radio.
1. Make sure your radio is turned off, by turning the
volume knob counterclockwise.
2. Remove the belt clip, if necessary (see page 11).
3. With the radio back facing you, push the latch on the
bottom of the radio away from you and slide the battery
cover downward, toward you.
4. Insert the NiMH battery. Read battery pack installation
instructions for appropriate fit.
5. Slide and snap the battery cover into place.
Note: Remove batteries before storing your radio for extended periods. Batteries corrode
over time and may cause permanent damage to your radio. Exercise caution when
handling batteries that are leaking. Dispose of exhausted batteries at a designated
battery disposal unit and not in the household waste.
1. Based on a standard duty cycle of 5% Transmit, 5% Receive, and 90% Standby.
DO NOT disassemble the NiMH battery pack.

The radio then displays the current channel (larger number) and the
frequency assigned to that channel (on the right indicated by l).
The Interference Eliminator Code displays briefly (indicated by

Talking and Receiving
Basic Radio Operation
It is good radio practice to monitor the channel you intend to use before transmitting.
This practice ensures that you do not interrupt other users already on that same channel.
To check for Channel activity, press and listen. If you hear static, then the channel
is free for use. If someone is already speaking on that channel do not transmit. Press
again to stop monitoring.
1. To talk, press and hold the
Push to Talk
button and speak into the microphone.
To maximize clarity, hold the radio 2 to 3 inches away from your mouth.
2. To listen, release the
Push to Talk
button
.
Note: The LED on the front left of the radio lights a steady red when transmitting.
Signal Strength Indicator
When there is activity on a frequency, the radio displays w and the
LED flashes once per second.
When there is activity on the same frequency and code as your radio
(your radio is receiving), the radio displays w and a signal strength
from 1 (weakest) to 6 (strongest). This can help determine when a radio is moving
out of range.
Note: Obstacles that block the signal path may affect the strength of the incoming signal.
