r As the battery discharges during use, the voltage gradually becomes lower. When the battery voltage reaches
6.3 volts, substitute a freshly charged battery and recharge the depleted pack. The TX/BUSY indicator
on the top of the radio will blink red when the battery
voltage is low.
r Avoid recharging Ni-Cd batteries often with little use
between charges, as this can degrade the charge capacity. We recommend that you carry an extra, fullycharged pack with you so the operational battery may
be used until depletion (this “deep cycling” technique
promotes better long-term battery capacity).

Description of Operating Functions
Monitor
Press the assigned Soft key momentarily to disable the
Tone squelch.
Press and hold the assigned Soft key more than 2 seconds to disable the Noise and Tone squelch. Repeatedly
press and hold the assigned Soft key more than 2 seconds (or press the assigned Soft key twice) to resume the
Noise and Tone squelch.
Scan
The Scanning feature is used to monitor multiple channels programmed into the transceiver. While scanning,
the transceiver will check each channel for the presence
of a signal, and will stop on a channel if a signal is present.
r To activate scanning:
Press the assigned Soft key.
The scanner will search the channels, looking for active ones; it will pause each time it finds a channel on
which someone is speaking.
r To stop scanning:
Press the assigned Soft key.
Operation will revert to the channel to which the CH
knob is set.
the key), you can set up the “Dual Watch” feature by rotating the CH selector knob to another channel. The radio will then scan back and forth between the original
User-assigned Priority Channel and the newly-selected
channel.
The Priority Channel you have assigned (before pressing
the key) will be retained in memory until you change it.
Dual Watch
The Dual Watch feature is similar to the Scan feature,
except that only two channels are monitored: The current
operating channel; and the “Priority” channel.
r To activate Dual Watch:
Press the assigned Soft key.
The scanner will search the two channels; it will pause
each time it finds a channel on which someone is
