Even though some earphones and headphones let you hear some outside sounds when you listen at normal lev- els, they still can present a traffic hazard.

CONNECTING AN EXTENSION SPEAKER

In a noisy area, an extension speaker (such as Cat. No. 21-549) or an amplified speaker (such as Cat. No. 21- 541), positioned in the right place, might provide more comfortable listening. Plug the speaker cable’s 1/8-inch

mini-plug into your scanner’s jack.

USING THE BELT CLIP

You can use the belt clip attached to the back of the scan- ner for hands-free carrying when you are on the go. Sim- ply slide the belt clip over your belt or waistband.
