Locking the Functions
Use the LOCK switch to lock the walkie-talkie’s functions (except PTT, LGT, and H/L) to prevent accidental program changes. Press LOCK so LOCK appears on the display. To release the lock, press LOCK again. LOCK disappears from the display.
POWER SAVER
Your walkie-talkie features a special power saver circuit. If the walkie-talkie does not receive a transmission for more than 10 seconds, the circuit sets the walkie-talkie to standby and PS flashes on the display.
During standby, the walkie-talkie uses only 70% of the power consumed during regular operation. The walkie-talkie returns to normal power when it receives a transmission, when you turn SQUELCH counterclockwise until you hear noise, or when you press any control or function switch.
