FCC Information
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules Subpart-B. Operation is subject to the
following conditions:
•This device may not cause harmful interfer-
ence.
•This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Important: Do not open your radio to make any
internal adjustments. Your radio is set up to
transmit a regulated signal on an assigned
frequency. It is against the law to alter or adjust
the settings inside the radio to exceed those
limitations. Any adjustments to your radio must
be made by qualified technicians using the
proper test equipment. To be safe and sure:
• Never open your radio’s case.
• Never change or replace anything in your
radio except the batteries.
Your radio might cause TV or radio interference
even when it is operating properly. To determine
whether your radio is causing the interference,
turn it off. If the interference goes away, your
radio is causing it. Try to eliminate the interfer-
ence by moving your radio away from the
receiver. If you cannot eliminate the interfer-
ence, the FCC requires that you stop using the
radio.
Audio Accessories: Do not operate the radio
with audio accessories at high volume levels.
Hearing experts advise against continuous high
volume operation. If you experience a ringing in
your ears, reduce the volume level or
discontinue use. Always make sure the radio is
turned off before plugging audio accessories
into the accessory jack. Do not operate the
radio in hazardous environments. Explosion or
fire may result. Do not operate the radio near
unshielded electrical blasting caps. Under cer-
tain conditions, radios can interfere with blast-
ing operations and may cause an explosion.
Turn your radio OFF to prevent accidental trans-
mission when in a blasting area or in areas
posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Construction
crews often use remote control RF devices to
set off explosives. Care and Safety: To clean the
radio, use a soft cloth dampened with water. Do
not use cleaners or solvents because they can
harm the body of the unit and leak inside, caus-
ing permanent damage. Use a dry, lint-free cloth
to clean the battery contacts. Do not submerge
the unit in water. If the unit gets wet, turn it off
and remove the batteries immediately. Dry the
battery compartment with a soft cloth to mini-
mize potential water damage. Leave the battery
compartment cover off overnight to ensure
complete drying. Do not use the radio until the
unit is completely dry.

Auto Squelch Feature
The FRS400 radio is equipped with an
automatic squelch system which shuts off weak
transmissions and unwanted noise due to ter-
rain conditions or if you have reached your
range limit.
To temporarily disable the Auto Squelch and lis-
ten to the selected channel, rapidly press the
PTT button twice. The channel will remain open
until the PTT button is pressed.
To re-engage the Auto Squelch, repeat the dou-
ble PTT key press.
Automatic Power Save Feature
Your radio has a unique circuit designed to dra-
matically extend the life of the batteries. If there
is no transmission within 5 seconds, your radio
switches to the Power Save mode. The radio is
still able to receive transmissions in this mode.
