•If the scanner receives strong interference or electrical noise, move it away from the source of the noise. If possible, a higher elevation might provide better reception.
Cleaning
Keep the scanner dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Use and store the scanner only in normal temperature environments. Handle the scanner carefully: do not drop it. Keep the scanner away from dust and dirt, and wipe it with a damp cloth occasionally.
•Disconnect the power to the unit before cleaning.
•Clean the outside of the scanner with a mild detergent.
•To prevent scratches, do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Be careful not to rub the LCD window.
•Do not use excessive amounts of water.
Repairs
Do not attempt any repair. The scanner contains no user serviceable parts. Contact the Uniden Customer Service Center or take it to a qualified repair technician.
Birdies
All radios can receive “birdies” (undesired signals). If your scanner stops during Scan mode and no sound is heard, it might be receiving a birdie. Birdies are internally generated signals inherent in the electronics of the receiver.
Press L/O to lock out the channel, then press Scan to resume scanning.
