Battery Maintenance

Rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries typically suffer from a memory effect that gradually reduces their capacity over time.

After two or three months of use, if you notice that the battery provides power for a

I slightly shorter time on each charge, do the following.

1.Leave the scanner on until the Iow battery warning sounds and the [Iow batt] indicator appears.

2.Recharge the battery for 14-16 hours to ensure a full charge.

. Turn off the scanner before removing

the battery.

. Always write down the programmed channels/frequencies in case of a memory loss.

. Always firmly press each scanner key so that you hear the entry tone.

. If strong interference or electrical noise is received, move the scanner. A higher location usually results in better

.reception.

Do not use the scanner is high-moisture environments, such as a kitchen or bathroom.

. Avoid placing the scanner in direct sunlight or near heating elements or vents.

. Disconnect the AC adaptor/charger

while you clean the scanner.

. Clean only the outside of the scanner with a mild detergent.

. To prevent scratches, do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents to clean

.the scanner.

.Do not rub the display window.

Do not use excessive amounts of water.

. Do not attempt any repairs. The scanner

contains no user-serviceable parts. Contact the Uniden Customer Service

Division, or take the scanner to a qualified repair technician.
