LED lights while the radio transmits and flashes if 
the channel is busy. 

Some channels may be monitored for activity by 
pressing the clear button (6). The icon will be lit until 
the channel is changed or the clear button (6) is 
pressed again. 

In the conventional mode the radio is equipped with 
a maximum transmit duration timer. This is 
programmed to start whenever the PTT is pressed. 
Tone G sounds five seconds before the transmitter 
is switched off. If the timer expires whilst still 
transmitting, transmission will cease and a 
continuous fail tone will sound until the PTT is 
released. 

 

Accessories and Battery Care

 

Fitting Belt Clip

 

Refer to illustration 1 on page (iii).

To fit the belt clip, slide it into the mounting rails on 
the back of the radio and press it downwards until it 
latches into place. To remove the belt clip, lift the 
release tab by inserting a key or coin between the 
release tab and the back of the radio. Press the belt 
clip upwards until it is completely disengaged from 
the radio.

 

Fitting/Removing Battery

 

Refer to illustrations 2 and 3 on page (iii).

To fit the battery, slide it into the control rails about 1/
2 an inch (2 cm) from the top of the radio and slide it 
towards the top until the battery latch has engaged. 
Before removing the battery, 

 

turn off the radio

 

Press the battery latch towards the front of the radio, 
slide the battery down about 1/2 an inch (2 cm) and 
lift it away from the radio.

 

Note:

 

 The battery must be charged before initial 

use. (For approximately 16 hours)

 

Operating Time

 

The operating time depends on the battery capacity, 
transmit power combined with the frequency band, 
and the duty cycle.

When the battery voltage runs low the battery icon 

 will appear on the display (display radios only) 

and the low battery warning tone will sound 
repeatedly for 60 seconds.

The power level in trunked mode can be adjusted on 
the keypad radio which will save the battery life. To 
toggle between high and low power levels enter 
“14

”. The display indicates the power level 

selected by displaying the LO icon when low power 
is selected.
