Transmitting an Emergency call
When holding down [Emergency] for the set time

then the countdown starts.
After the countdown, the transceiver transmits an
Emergency call once, or repeatedly, on the specified
Emergency channel.

set time period.
When no Emergency channel is specified, it transmits
the call on the previously selected channel.
If you want to cancel the Emergency call, turn OFF
the transceiver, or hold down [Emergency] for the set
time period again during the first countdown.
If your transceiver is set for Silent operation, you can
transmit an Emergency call without beeps and the
LED indicator lighting.
The transceiver can also be set to keep the
microphone open during an Emergency call, allowing
other persons to monitor the situation. Ask your dealer
for details.

These functions and operations may or may not be available or different, depending on the presetting.
Ask your dealer for preset information.
