I Transmit/Batiery lndlcator l Automatic Squelch l Paging Feature I Automatic Power Save RadioShack welcomes you to the next generation of personal communication —~ the Family Radio Service (FHS). FRS is a new license-free, twmway. short-range voice radio service that lets families and groups keep in touch with each other on specific reserved channels, ® RadioShackm ,_._——--—--—~ INTRODUCTION Your RadioShack Personal FM Transceiver IS a lightweight, palm-sized radio thai you can carry almosfl anywhere. Use It at shopping malls, amusement parks, or sports events to con- tact iamiiy and friends, or In a neighborhood watch for viral communications You can talk with another person who has an FRS radio set to the seme fre~ quency as your transceiver. You can select one frequency from 14 FRS channels. Your radio has auto—squelch, which means you won‘t hear anything on the channel unless someone is iransmifllng nearby on the same channel. But, you can turn off amo—squeich to hear weaker, distant transmissions (see Pages 44). Also. If you do not transmit for over 8 seconds, the radio auto- matically switches to a power save mode and returns to full power when it receives a trans mission or you press any key, ©1998 Tandy Corporation.

Slide off the battery com~ panmem cover in the direc- tion of the anew on the cover. 2. To select the desired chan- nel. set the switches as shown below. Example of Channel 9 :-_i Switch: l/oll 2/0" aloft 4/on ..h INSTALLING 4 BATTERIES Your radio uses four AAA batter— ies kx power. We recommend alkaline batteries (such as Ra- dIoShack Cat. No. 23658). You can also use rechargeable batteries (such as Cat. No. 28- 127) in the radia BeVore you use nickel—cadmium batteries, you must charge them (see “Charg- ing Nickel—Cadmlum Batteries” on Page 10} “— 1. Be sure the radio is off, then slide off the battery compartment cover in the direction of the anew on the cover. 2. if you are installing alka- line batteries, use a pointed object such as a pen to set NIIAL inside the compan- ment to AL. Or. if you are installing nickel—cadmium batteries, set it to Nl ’ Warning: Never set NVAL to NI if you are installing nonArechargeable baller- les. Non-rechargeable bal‘ ten‘es can gel not or explode if you try to recharge them. 3. Install the batteries, match- ing the polarity symbols (+ and —) inside the comoam menl. Then replace the cover. —_ __ ____.___...__—___———— Caution: Do not mix old and new batteries, diflerent types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of different capaclties. The radic’s range decreases as the battery power decreases To ensure maximum range, keep fresh batteries in the radio. USING THE BELT CLIP You can use the supplied belt clip to make your transceiver easier to use when you are on the go..

To charge the batteries. set NUAL to Nl. install the nickel-cadmium batteries in the transceiver, and connect an external AC adapter. such as RadioShack Cat. No. 273-1455, to the transceivers cHGlack. Warning: Do not connect the adapter to the transceiver it you have non-rechargeable batter- lea (such as alkaline batteries) installed in the transceiver and NlIAL is set to NI. Non-recharge- able batteries will get hot and can eve explode if you try to re- charge them Cautions: The recommended AC adapter supplies 9 volts and delivers at least 300 milllamps. ll has a barrel plug with a center ' negative tip that correctly fits ‘ the transceiver’s cue jack Using an adapter that does not meet these specifications could damage the transceiver or the adapter. _—————— __‘_______——— 1. Turn VOLUME counter- clockwise until it slide to make sure power Is turned off. 2. Plug the adapter's 6.5 mm outside diameter/2.1 mm inside diameter barrel plug into your (ransoeiver’s cue jack 3. Plug the other end of the adapter into a standard AC outlet. Betore you use nickel-cadmium batteries for the first time. 'charge them at least 24 hours to bring them to a full charge. Discharged bakeries take about 10 to 18 hours to fully recharge. Notes: - Nickel—cadmium baneries last longer and deliver ' more power it you occa- sionally let them fully dis- charge. - To prevent damaging nickel-cadmium batteries, nwer charge them in an area where the temperafl ture is above 113°F or below 40°F. 11 Important: At the end of a mehargeable battery’s useful life, it must be recycled or dis- posed of properly. Contact your local, county, or stale hazard- ous waste management author files for information on recycling or disposal programs in your area. Some options that might be available are: municipal curb-side collection. drop-off boxes at retailers such as your local RadioShack store, recy- cling eollsction centers. and»‘ mail-back programsl 12 SPECIFICATIONS Channel .......
