Never replace the original fuse (10A) by one of a different
value.
BASIC OPERATIONS TO BE CARRIED OUT BEFORE USING
4.
YOUR RADIO FOR THE FIRST TIME
(without transmitting or
using the PTT (Push-To-Talk) key on the microphone)
ADJUSTMENT OF SWR(standing wave ratio)
5.
WARNING:
This must be carried out when you use
your radio
for
the first time (and whenever you re-position your antenna). The
adjustment must be carried out in an obstacle-free area.
Adjustment with a built-in SWR meter or external SWR meter
a) To connect the SWR meter
Connect the SWR meter between
the radio
and the antenna as
close as possible to
the radio
(use a maximum of 40cm cable).
b) To adjust the SWR meter
-Set the
radio
to channel 20@D band in FM.
-put the switch on the SWR meter to position CAL or FWD.
-Press the PTT (Push-To-Talk) key
on the microphone to
transmit.
a) Connect the microphone
b) Check the antenna connections
c) Turn the set on by turning the volume knob clockwise
d) Turn the squelch knob to minimum
e) Adjust the volume to a comfortable level
f) Go to channel 20@D band by using either the UP or DN key on
the microphone or the rotary knob.
Your RADIO is protected against an inversion of polarities. However,
before switching it on, you are advised to check all the connections.
Your equipment must be supplied with a continued current of 12 volts.
Today, most cars and lorries are negative earth. You can check this
by making sure that the negative terminal of the battery is connected
either to the engine block or to the chassis. If this is not the case, you
should consult your dealer.
WARNING:
Lorries generally have two batteries to supply a voltage
of 24 volts, in which case it will be necessary to insert a 24/12 volt
converter into the electrical circuit. The following connection steps
should be carried out with the power cable disconnected from the set.
a) Check whether the battery is of 12 volts.
b) Locate the positive and negative terminals of the battery (+ is red
and – is black). Should it be necessary to lengthen the power
cable, please use the same or a superior type of cable.
c) It is necessary to connect your
radio
to a permanent (+) and (-).
We advise you to connect the power cable directly to the battery
(as the connection of
the cable
to the wiring of the car-radio or
other parts of the electrical circuit may, in some cases, increase
the possibilities of interference).
d) Connect the red wire (+) to the positive terminal of the battery
and the black (-) wire to the negative terminal of the battery.
e) Connect the power cable to
your radio.

IMPORTANT: RF Hazard Warning
The electro-magnetic exposure of this device may exceed the European
standards of the hazard level depending on the conditions of the combination
of the antenna gain, distance from the operator, output setting and installation
environment. For safety purpose, it is recommended that the antenna be
installed outside of, and as far as possible from, the operator’s area. Avoid
using an excessively high-gained antenna in case the distance between
the operator and the antenna is very limited.
Always use the minimum necessary output power for communications.
