How To Use Your Walkie-talkies
1. Insert the battery. (Refer to page 5 for detailed instructions.)

a click) and the red LED-power bulb will light up on the front panel.
Roll the wheel down for maximum volume or up to reduce volume.
3. Press the PUSH-TO-TALK button to speak, then release to hear a reply.
4. When speaking, talk clearly in a normal voice, holding the walkie-talkie
about 8cm from your mouth.

and being used in an open space, away from buildings, pylons or other
interference.

Walkie talkies work using
radio waves; they are essentially
two-way radios. The radios you listen
to at home only receive signals, but
your walkie talkies receive and
send out signals.
Walkie talkies have been used
for many years. They were first widely
used by the military and early models were
heavy and bulky. Nowadays they are much
smaller and lightweight. Their use spread to
the police and fire service and now are used
by many people for work or just fun!
