USING THE QUIET FEATURE
The quiet feature lets you talk and listen to peo-
ple who are using other radios set to the same
channel and quiet code. This is like having a
sub-channel within a channel, giving you great-
er communication flexibility. When you set a qui-
et code (there are 38 to choose from) and turn
on this feature, you can communicate with any-
one who has a radio set to the same channel
and code.
1. Hold down
QUIET
for 3 seconds until
QUIET
appears and the quiet code
flashes.
2. Repeatedly press (or hold down)
CH
or
CH
until you see the code number you
want to use.
3. Press
QUIET
to store the code.
To turn on the quiet feature, press
QUIET
.
QUI-
ET
appears. To turn off the feature, press
QUIET
until
QUIET
disappears.
Note: We recommend that you select a quiet
code from the range 7–30. If you select a code
below or above that range, you must wait 1 to 2
seconds after holding down
PUSH-TO-TALK
be-
fore you start talking.

INSTALLING BATTERIES
Your radio uses two AA batteries for power. We
recommend alkaline batteries (such as Ra-di-
oShack Cat. No. 23-557).
Caution: Do not mix old and new batteries, dif-
ferent types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or
rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of dif-
ferent capacities.
Be sure the radio is off, then slide off the battery
compartment cover. Install the batteries over
the ribbon and according to the polarity symbols
(+ and –) marked inside the compartment.
When
appears, replace the batteries.
Caution: Dispose of old batteries promptly and
properly.
CARING FOR YOUR RADIO
To enjoy your radio for a long time:
• Handle it gently.
• Keep it away from dust, moisture, and tem-
perature extremes.
• Clean it with a damp cloth. Do not use
harsh chemicals.
