Low Battery Alert

The LCD on your radio shows a battery meter

in the lower right corner. The icon indicates a fully powered unit. As the batteries

become low, will flash.

When the batteries in the unit are low, the unit will go into a Battery Low/Sleep Mode. The Scan Mode, Monitor Mode, Transmit, Transmit Call Tone Mode, CTCSS Tone Setting Mode, VOX Sensitivity Level Setting Mode, and Vibration are disabled. Replace the batteries immediately to continue using the radio.

Belt Clip

Because you will most likely use your radio when you are out and about, the unit comes equipped with a belt clip to fasten the unit to your belt, pocket, or purse.

To remove the belt clip, turn the screws counterclockwise.

To attach the belt clip:

1. Insert the belt clip screws into the slot on the belt clip.

2.Align the screws with the holes on the back of the radio and turn them

clockwise, using a Phillips screwdriver to secure the belt clip. Do not over-tighten.
