General Radio Operation

Display

This figure is typical of what you see on your radio. The 64 x 96 pixel liquid crystal display (LCD) shows radio status, text, and menu entries.

Backlight

If poor light conditions make the display difficult to read, turn on the radio’s backlight by pressing the Light button.

The light will remain on for a preprogrammed time before it turns off automatically, or you can turn it off immediately by pressing the Light button again.
