Troubleshooting

Limited talk range

Steel and/or concrete structures, heavy foliage, use in buildings

 

or vehicles decrease range. Check for clear line of sight to

 

improve transmission.

 

Wearing radio close to body such as in a pocket or on a belt

 

decreases range. Change location of radio.

 

 

Heavy static or interference

Radios are too close, they must be at least five feet apart.

 

Radios are too far apart or obstacles interfering with

 

transmission. Talk range is up to two miles in clear, unobstructed

 

conditions.

 

 

Channel and/or code locked

Make sure radio is unlocked. See page 29.

 

 

Low batteries

Replace alkaline batteries. Recharge or replace NiMH battery.

 

Extreme operating temperatures affect battery life.

 

 

Charger LED double flashing

Charger not properly positioned. Reposition charger and ensure

 

it is firmly clamped to the radio, battery, or charging dock.

 

Battery power is very low; battery is charging up slowly before it

 

starts to quick charge.

 

 

Cannot activate VOX

Feature not set and on. See page 18.

 

 

Poor FM reception

FM stereo use is optimal with use of stereo earbuds.
