Other Features
Note that some features are not permitted in some
countries.
Economy Mode
Economy mode can extend battery life when there is
little or no activity on the radio. When in economy
mode, the radio cycles between the receive state and a
standby state once there has been no activity for a
programmed period. Receiving or sending a call returns
the radio to the fully active state.
Economy mode may be permanently enabled or can be
toggled on and off by the press of an assigned function
key.
While economy mode is active, the LED flashes green at
slow flash rate.
Handset Operation
The radio microphone has two modes of operation:
■
Normal operation: The radio microphone is held
about 6 inches (15 cm) away from the mouth.
■
Handset operation: The radio is operated like a
telephone handset. This is particularly useful in noisy
environments or when privacy is required.
While in handset mode, the radio’s handset microphone
operates.
Note: The radio can be programmed so that the
handset microphone is also the default micro-
phone.
Caution: While using the radio in handset
mode, do not hold the speaker pressed against
your ear, or allow the antenna to touch your
body.
