Low Power Warning

Channel Annunciation
The dealer can activate or prohibit this function. Two types of Chinese and English annunciation
are available.
When switching to a channel by rotating the channel knob, the current channel number will sound.
CTCSS/DCS
The dealer can set CTCSS/DCS on the radio channels to ignore calls on the same channel from
irrelevant radios.
If a channel has been set with CTCSS/DCS, the squelch will be activated only when it receives the
proper CTCSS/DCS signals. And only the radios set with the same CTCSS/DCS signaling as
those on yours can hear your call.
Note: Using a CTCSS/DCS channel doesn’t mean your calls are private. If the CTCSS/DCS tones
of other radios are identical with those on yours, they can hear your calls.
