Call Ringer Selection Mode

The transceiver provides 3 user-selectable call ringer melodies to alert you to an incoming call.

To select your favorite call ringer melody:

-From GMRS/FRS standby mode, press the MODE Button 8 times (7 times for FRS). CA will appear on the display, together with a flashing number between 01 and 03, and an appropriate call ring.

-Press the Up or Down Button to preview and hear the 3 available call melodies.

-Press the PTT button momentarily to confirm selection.

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 since the battery save function is overridden.

To enable the channel scan mode:

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

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

-If the unit doesn’t find any signals and you want to transmit, press the PTT button 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 SCAN button momentarily and the unit will return to normal operation; the SCAN icon will disappear from the LCD display.
