Things to Try
The power LED on the
charger doesn’t turn on.
-
Don’t use the charger when the ambient
temperature is below 0° C (32° F) or
above 45° C (113° F).
-
Make sure the charging contacts on the
radio and charger are clean.
-
Replace the battery.
The radio won’t transmit.
Make sure you are not in Weather or Scan
mode.
Make sure you are not trying to transmit on
a receive-only channel or transmit at the
wrong power level for this channel (see the
channel lists starting on page E-23).
Check the battery power level; if it’s low,
charge the battery before trying to transmit.
Make sure the duration of each transmission
is less than 5 minutes.
I can’t hear anything from
the speaker.
Adjust the squelch level; it is probably too
high.
Noise comes out of the
speaker all the time
Adjust the squelch level; it is probably too
low.
I can transmit, but no one
can hear me.
Check your UIC channel settings: does
the area you are in use different channel
assignments?
I’m not getting hazard
alerts.
Make sure Weather Alert Watch is turned
on.
The display flashes, and I
don’t know why.
The channel number on the display will flash
if the radio is in a watch mode or in scan
mode. Try turning off scanning, Weather
Alert Watch, Triple Watch, or Dual Watch
(see page E-7).
Where can I find my radio’s
serial number?
The serial number is on a plate inside the
battery compartment.
