• Remove the batteries from the transceiver if it is not expected to

be used for long periods. This will eliminate the possibility of

chemicals leaking from the batteries and corroding the transceiver.

• Avoid exposing the transceiver to water or extremes of temperature.

• Do not use this device in or near a mining facility, which uses

Channel Scan Operation

This feature allows you to monitor all channels automatically for valid signals. While scanning, you can transmit and receive. When a signal is received, the scan is interrupted and will return to scan mode 5 seconds after reception is terminated.

NOTE:

While the scan function is active,the MODE button will be inoperative. The scan mode will reduce the overall battery life due

to the battery save function is overridden. To enable the channel scan mode,

-From GMRS/FRS standby mode,momentarily press the power Button; (SCAN) will appear on the LCD display.

-The radio will display each channel (1-22) in order as the scan mode operates to find an active main channel.

-When unit doesn't find any signals and you want to transmit, press the PTT switch to return to home channel operation.

The transceiver will automatically resume scanning approximately 5 seconds after the communication is completed.

-If there is no activity and you want to leave the scan mode,

press the power button momentarily and the unit will return to normal operation; (SCAN) icon will disappear from the LCD display.

remotely triggered explosives or in areas labeled “Blasting Area”.

Premature or accidental detonation may result.

• Do not attempt to modify or in any way increase the output of this

transceiver. Its output is designed to meet the legal limits set

by the FCC.

• Do not use this device or change its batteries in potentially

explosive atmospheres as sparks in such areas could result

in an explosion.

• Turn your transceiver off wherever posted notices restrict the use

of radios or cellular telephones. Facilities such as hospitals may use equipment that is sensitive to RF energy.

Turn your transceiver off on board aircraft when requested to do so. Do not place your radio in front of a vehicle’s air-bag.

If the air-bag deploys, it could propel the transceiver like a projectile causing bodily injury.

Key Tone

This feature allows the transceiver to sound a confirmation tone whenever the following keys are pressed: Up/Down button, MODE button, SCAN button. The key tone is always on.

Roger Beep Tone

The Roger Beep is a tone which is automatically transmitted whenever the PTT button is released. This tone alerts the receiving party that the transmission has been terminated intentionally.

To enable and disable the Roger Beep tone:

-From GMRS/FRS standby mode, press the Function Button until the flashing Roger Beep icon appears with On or oF.

-Press the Up or Down Button to select the tone on or off as desired.

- When enabled, the tone icon ( ) appears steady on the display. - Press the PTT to confirm selection.

Battery Alert

NOTES FOR GOOD COMMUNICATION

1.The GMRS120/120-2 22 channels are shared on a ‘take turns’ basis. This means other groups may be talking on any of the channels.

A common code of ethics/courtesy is to switch to another vacant channel and not to attempt to talk over someone who is already using the channel you first selected.

2.The GMRS120/120-2 has been designed to maximize performance and improve transmission range in the field. To avoid interference, it is recommended that you do not use the units closer than

5 feet apart.

3.For best transmission results, always keep your mouth about 2-3 inches from the microphone (5) and speak slowly

in a normal voice.

4.To increase battery life, avoid features such as Scan. These features will reduce operating time considerably.
