Before You Begin
Battery Pack Installation and Removal
r
To install the battery, hold the transceiver with your
left hand, so your palm is over the speaker and your
thumb is on the top of the belt clip. Insert the battery
pack into the battery compartment on the back of the
radio while tilting the Belt Clip outward, then close
the Battery Pack Latch until it locks in place with a
“Click.”
Operating Manual Reprint
Low Battery Indication
r
As the battery discharges during use, the voltage gradu-
ally becomes lower. When the battery voltage reaches
6.3 volts, substitute a freshly charged battery and recharge
the depleted pack. The
TX/BUSY
indicator on the top of
the radio will blink
red
when the battery voltage is low.
r
Avoid recharging Ni-Cd batteries often with little use
between charges, as this can degrade the charge ca-
pacity. We recommend that you carry an extra, fully-
charged pack with you so the operational battery may
be used until depletion (this “deep cycling” technique
promotes better long-term battery capacity).
Operation
Preliminary Steps
r
Install a charged battery pack onto the transceiver, as
described previously.
r
Screw the supplied antenna onto the Antenna jack.
Never attempt to operate this transceiver without an
antenna connected.
r
If you have a Speaker/Microphone, we recommend that
it not be connected until you are familiar with the ba-
sic operation of the
VX-210A
.
Operation Quick Start
r
Turn the top panel’s
VOL/
PWR
knob clockwise to
turn on the radio on.
r
Pull and turn
the top
panel’s
CH
selector knob
to choose the desired op-
erating channel.
r
Rotate the
VOL/PWR

to set the volume level. If no
signal is present, press and
hold in the
ACC
button (the
lower button on the left
side) for more than 1 second
(when “MONITOR” is assigned to the
ACC
button); back-
ground noise will now be heard, and you may use this to set
the
VOL/PWR
knob for the desired audio level.
r
Press and hold in the
ACC
button (when “MONI-
TOR” is assigned to the
