This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following conditions:
• This device may not cause harmful interference.
• This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Important: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by Uniden could void your authority to operate this unit. Your radio is set up to transmit a regulated signal on an assigned frequency. It is against the law to
alter or adjust the settings inside the radio to exceed those limitations. Any adjustments to your radio must be made by qualified technicians.
Portable Radio Operation and SAR Exposure: When transmitting with a portable radio, hold the radio in a vertical position with the microphone at least 2 inches away from the mouth. Keep the antenna at least 4 centimeter
(about 2 inches) from your head or body when transmitting. If you wear a portable radio on your body, ensure that the antenna is at least half inch from the body when transmitting.
To be safe and sure:
• Never open your radio’s case.
• Never change or replace anything in your radio except the batteries.
Your radio might cause TV or radio interference even when it is operating properly. To determine whether your radio is causing the interference, turn it off. If the interference goes away, your radio is causing it. Try to eliminate the
interference by moving your radio away from the receiver. If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using the radio.
Audio Accessories: Do not operate the radio with audio accessories at high volume levels. Hearing experts advise against continuous high volume operation. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce the volume level or
discontinue use. Always make sure the radio is turned off before plugging audio accessories into the accessory jack.
Hazardous Environments: Do not operate the radio in hazardous environments. Explosion or fire may result. Do not operate the radio near unshielded electrical blasting caps. Under certain conditions, radios can interfere with
blasting operations and may cause an explosion. Turn your radio OFF to prevent accidental transmission when in a blasting area or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Construction crews often use remote control RF
devices to set off explosives.
Care and Safety: To clean the radio, use a soft cloth dampened with water. Do not use cleaners or solvents because they can harm the body of the unit and leak inside, causing permanent damage. Use a dry, lint-free cloth to
clean the battery contacts. Do not submerge the unit in water. If the unit gets wet, turn it off and remove the batteries immediately. Dry the battery compartment with a soft cloth to minimize potential water damage. Leave the
battery compartment cover off overnight to ensure complete drying. Do not use the radio until the unit is completely dry.
