GLOBE TRAVELER G3 OWNER’S MANUAL

RESET BUTTON

The reset button is located inside the small hole labeled RESET on the right front of the radio. If the G3 operates erratically, poke a paper clip into the reset hole to reset its microprocessor. This does not erase memory, but does reset the clock to 12:00.

USING THE LOCK FEATURE

With the G3 turned off, one press of the LOCK button prevents un- wanted turn-on. When it is turned on, one press of the LOCK button makes HOLD appear in the LCD and prevents unwanted frequency changes with the tuning knob; two presses of the LOCK button makes a key appear at the top of the LCD and locks all buttons except the POWER/SLEEP button. Deactivate lock with a long (about 2 second) press of the lock button.

RESETTING THE RADIO

Resetting the radio deletes all memories and resets the radio to factory defaults. With the radio turned off, press the ‘COPY’ ‘ERASE’ ‘EDIT’ buttons in turn, ‘FACTORY’ will flash in the LCD and numbers will count down from 10 to 1, after the count down is finished release the buttons and press ‘RESET’. All memory pages are erased and the factory default settings are restored.
