Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Due to its rugged design, your radio requires very little maintenance.

However, it is a precision electronic instrument, so you should follow a

few precautions:

• If the antenna has been damaged, do not transmit except in an

emergency situation. Transmitting with a defective antenna may cause

further radio damage.

Common Questions

Problem

Things to try

The radio won’t turn on.

Charge the radio.

The power LED on the

charger doesn’t turn on.

•

Don’t use the charger when the

ambient temperature is below 5° C (41°

F) or above 40° C (104° 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 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 53).

•

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?
