To change the CTCSS Sub-channel:

-From FRS standby mode, press the MODE Button twice; a flashing oF or sub-channel number is displayed, together with the flashing CTC icon. If oF is displayed, press the Up or Down button to enable the CTCSS mode; the CTC icon will also flash on the display with the flashing sub-channel number.

NOTE: To communicate with other FRS units, they must be switched to the same channel and CTCSS subcode. To communicate with other FRS units that do not have subcodes, switch your unit to the same channel with the subcode set to oF.

The CTCSS subcodes do not prevent others from hearing your transmission. This will only allow you to ignore all traffic on a given channel not using the same subcode.
