Read this information before using the radio In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety stan-dard previously set by both U.S. and international standards bod-ies. The design of the radio complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards.Never allow children to operate the radio without adult supervision and the knowledge of the following guidelines.WARNING! It is up to the user to properly operate this radio trans-mitter to insure safe operation. Please adhere to the following:Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized an-tennas, modiﬁ cations, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the radio, or result in violation of FCC regulations.Do not use the radio with a damaged antenna. If a damaged an-tenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please contact your local dealer for a replacement antenna.Body-worn Operation This device was tested for typical body-worn operations using the supplied belt-clip. To maintain compli-ance with FCC RF exposure requirements, body-worn operations are restricted to the supplied belt-clip. For hand-held operation, the radio should be held 1 inch from the user’s face.

9 The ON/OFF/Volume knob will be rotated in a clockwise direction to turn the radio on. Continued rotation of the knob will increase the volume level of the built in speaker. Upon turning the radio on, the radio will emit a wake up tone and will also have a click feel. The click feel will be felt upon both turning on and turning off and while changing the volume. *NOTE: Every time that the radio is turned on, the radio will remember the last channel selected. Memory channels, 1/2.5W/5W, Channel Tag, Key Beep, and UIC (including the last channel selected) settings will remain in the mode that was selected prior to turning the radio off. 9. Squelch Knob The Squelch knob will be rotated in a clockwise direction to increase the threshold of squelch. This control will have a clicking feeling for every level. Example: As the user rotates the knob clockwise, the long-range sensitivity of the radio steadily decreases until a threshold is reached where there is no loud hissing sound. At that point, the radio will be able to receive signals without the excess background noise. The user may rotate the knob counterclockwise from this point to receive weaker or distant signals. 10. Channel UP and DOWN Keys These keys will be used to incrementally change the channels in either an ascending order or a descending order. The UP key will move through the channels in an ascending order and the DOWN key will move through the channels in a descending order. The following screens show examples of changing channels downward. The currently selected channel will be highlighted in the center of the display. After a channel has been selected and no more UP or DOWN arrow keys presses, this screen will automatically time out after 3 seconds and return to the normal radio standby screen.

10 *NOTE: If either the UP or DOWN keys are held down for an interval of 2 seconds, the channel display will quickly scroll (no beep tones) in the direction of the appropriately held key. ***NOTE: When AM, FM, or Air Band are active, pressing and holding the UP or Down keys will activate a SEEK feature, where the radio continues to increment the frequency until an active frequency is found. At this point, if the UP or DOWN keys are still held down, the radio will pause on the active channel for 3 seconds, then continue to the next active frequency. This operation will continue as long as the UP or DOWN keys are held down. If the UP or DOWN keys are released when an active frequency is found, then the radio will stay on that frequency. If the UP or DOWN arrow keys are released before and active channel is found, the radio will continue to seek until a active channel is found. Briefly pressing the UP or DOWN arrow keys will cancel the seek mode. 11. Band/1/2.5/5W Key Momentarily pressing this key for will select between the available bands on this model. The bands include Marine VHF, AM radio, FM radio, AM Air Band, and FRS radio. The default on power-up will be Marine VHF. The Band order will be: VHF, FRS, AM, FM, and then Air. Pressing and holding this key will change the transmit output power setting (see section 11.6). 11.1 Marine VHF When the Band key is pressed to select the VHF mode, the following screen will be displayed for ~3 seconds, then the normal VHF screen will be displayed. If the Band

11 key is pressed again while this screen is displayed, the FRS opening screen will be activated. The features explaining the operation of the VHF radio are described in other parts of this document. 11.2 FRS Radio When the Band key is pressed to select the FRS radio mode, the following screen will be displayed for ~3 seconds, then the normal FRS screen will be displayed. If the Band key is pressed again while this screen is displayed, the AM opening screen will be activated. The following is the display for the FRS radio: The frequency range for FRS is 462.5625~467.7125MHz, 12.5KHz steps, 0.5 Watt maximum transmit power. There will be 142 CTCSS codes for this feature (see Menu for setup details). All 14 channels can be stored into the scan memory. When the CTCSS code option is not activated on the current FRS channel, the following screen will be displayed.

12 During transmit, the following screen will be displayed. If the low battery occurs and the PTT is pressed, or anytime of a battery low condition occurs, an error tone will sound (400Hz every 1 second) and the Battery Low message will show on the bottom of the display. This indicates that the TX is disabled. After the PTT key is released. The Battery Low message will disappear. The Battery level icon will continue to blink until the radio either shuts off or the radio is recharged. The only exception to this would be the battery low condition can happen much more easily while transmitting. After the PTT is released, the radio will check the battery voltage to determine if the radio is still in a low battery condition, if not then the battery icon will not continue to blink. Note: During Tri Watch or Dual Watch, The FRS radio does not change to the Marine VHF while looking channel 16 or channel 9. If carrier is detected on channel 16 or channel 9 while checking these channels, the Marine VHF screen will be displayed. 11.3 AM Radio When the Band key is pressed to select the AM radio mode, the following screen will be displayed for ~3 seconds, then the normal AM radio screen will be displayed.
