RADIO VOLUME ADJUST
The RADIO VOLUME ADJUST is a one time setting which depends on the radio connected and its normal volume.
The siren cover must be removed to access the adjustment. The cover is held in place by a
Switch siren to RADIO mode and turn on the power. With the volume on the radio itself set to normal level, set the RADIO VOLUME ADJUST to the desired level. Turn off power and press the chassis back into the cover.
