The battery power may run out. 

Recharge or replace the battery. 

The battery may suffer from poor contact caused by dirty 
or damaged battery contacts. 

Clean the battery contacts or replace the battery. 

During receiving, the voice is weak or 

intermittent. 

The battery voltage maybe low. 

Recharge or replace the battery. 

The volume level may be low. 

Increase the volume. 

The antenna maybe loose or maybe installed incorrectly. 

Turnoff the radio, and then remove and reattach 
the antenna. 

The speaker maybe blocked. 

Clean the surface of the speaker. 

You cannot communicate with other 
group members. 

The frequency or signaling type maybe inconsistent with 
that of other members. 

Verify that your TX/RX frequency and signaling type 
are correct. 

You may be too far away from other members. 

Move towards other members. 

You hear unknown voices or noise. 

You may be interrupted by radios using the same 
frequency. 

Change the frequency, or adjust the squelch level. 

The radio in analog mode maybe set with no signaling. 

Request your dealer to set signaling for the current 
channel to avoid interference 

You are unable to hear anyone 
because of too much noise and hiss. 

You may be too far away from other members. 

Move towards other members. 

You may be in an unfavorable position. For example, your 
communication may be blocked by high buildings or 
blocked in an underground area. 

Move to an open and flat area, restart the radio, 
and try again. 

It may be the result of external disturbance (such as 
electromagnetic interference). 

Stay away from equipment that may cause 
interference. 

The radio keeps transmitting. 

VOX may be turned on or the headset is not installed in 
place 

Turn off the VOX function. Check that the 
headphones are in place. 

NOTE: If the above solutions cannot fix your problems, or you may have some other queries, please contact your dealer 

for more technical support.
