Care and Maintenance
Keep the scanner dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry
immediately. Use and store the scanner only in
normal temperature environments. Handle the
scanner carefully: do not drop it. Keep the scanner
away from dust and dirt, and wipe it with a damp
cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.
General Use
•
Turn the scanner off before disconnecting the
power.
•
Always write down the programmed frequencies
in the event of memory loss.
•
If memory is lost, simply reprogram each
channel. The display shows 000.000 in all chan-
nels when there has been a memory loss.
•
Always press each button firmly until you hear
the entry tone for that key entry.
Location
•
Do not use the scanner in high-moisture
environments such as the kitchen or bathroom.
•
Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or near
heating elements or vents.
•
If the scanner receives strong interference or
electrical noise, move it or its antenna away from
the source of the noise. If possible, a higher
elevation might provide better reception.
•
Also try changing the height or angle of the
antenna.
Cleaning
•
Disconnect the power to the unit before
cleaning.
