This lightweight, palm-sized, radio is a state-of-the-art device, equipped with many valuable features. Use it at sporting events, to stay in contact with family and friends, hiking, skiing, outdoors, or in a neighborhood watch for vital communication - even outside by the pool!Your radio complies with JIS7 water-resistant standards, which means the radio can be submerged in 1.0 meters of water for 30 minutes without damage.•  The radio will only meet this rating if fully assembled and all rubber seals and the jack cover is well maintained and correctly fitted. This means that the Headset plug is not inserted, and the Headset jack cover and the battery pack are attached and securely fastened.•  After your radio is submerged in water, you might notice that the sound is distorted. This is because there is still water remaining in and around the speaker and microphone. Just shake the radio to clear excess water, and the sound should return to normal.Note: If your radio is exposed to salt water, clean your radio thoroughly with fresh water, and dry it before turning it on.PACKAGE CONTENTSYour package contains two radios, two rechargeable NiMH battery packs (#BP38), one AC adapter (#AD-314), one charging cradle (#RC1282), two belt clips and this reference guide.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:(1) This device may not cause harmful interference.(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.Important: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this device. 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.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.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.
