Scanning
1. After programming frequencies, simply press SCAN to begin scanning.
2.The bank indicators selected for scanning appear in the display, and the bank being currently monitored flashes. You can deselect banks from active scanning by pressing their number on your keypad. The indicator for each deselected bank turns off, and the banks channels are not scanned.
Note: One Bank must always be active. You cannot deactivate all ten banks at the same time. If you try to turn off all the banks, the first bank is automatically selected.
To restore a bank to active scanning, press the banks number on your keypad. The banks indicator will display again.
3.During normal scanning the scanner skips unprogrammed or locked out channels.
4.When a transmission is received, the scanner stops on that channel. When the transmission ends, scanning resumes automatically.
If you want to stop on a channel during scanning, press MAN.
If you want to resume scanning, press SCAN.
To directly access a specific channel:

Another method is as follows:

2.Rotate the VFO control until the desired channel is displayed. The scanner will automatically go to manual mode.
Note: You can accidentally change the frequency if you don’t verify that CHAN is displayed. If FREQ is displayed, you will be changing the frequency when you rotate the VFO control. Just don’t press E or it will be changed!
