A common code of ethics/courtesy is to switch to another vacantchannel and not to attempt to talk over someone who is alreadyusing the channel you first selected.2.The GMRS200W has been designed to maximize performance and improve transmission range in the field. To avoid interference, it is recommended that you do not use the units closer than5 feet apart.3.For best transmission results, always keep your mouth about2-3 inches from the microphone (5) and speak slowly in a normal voice.4.To increase battery life, avoid features such as Scan. These features will reduce operating time considerably. Warning• Do not operate the transceiver unless you are licensed to do so.chemicals leaking from the batteries and corroding the transceiver.Premature or accidental detonation may result.• Remove the batteries from the transceiver if it is not expected tobe used for long periods. This will eliminate the possibility of • Avoid exposing the transceiver to water or extremes of temperature.• Do not use this device in or near a mining facility, which usesremotely triggered explosives or in areas labeled “Blasting Area”. • Do not attempt to modify or in any way increase the output of thistransceiver. Its output is designed to meet the legal limits setby the FCC.• Do not use this device or change its batteries in potentially explosive atmospheres as sparks in such areas could resultin an explosion. • Turn your transceiver off wherever posted notices restrict the use of radios or cellular telephones. Facilities such as hospitals mayuse equipment that is sensitive to RF energy.
