EMERGENCY CALLS

If your transceiver has been programmed with the Emergency function, you can make emergency calls.

Note: Emergency can be programmed only on the PF 5 key (the fifth key from the left, after the CH control).

1Press and hold the key programmed as Emergency.

Depending on the delay time programmed into your transceiver, the length of time you must hold the Emergency key will vary.

When the transceiver enters Emergency mode, the transceiver will change to the Emergency channel and begin transmitting based on how the transceiver is set up by your dealer. Transmit periods are also set by your dealer.

2To exit Emergency mode, press and hold the Emergency key again.

If the Emergency mode completes the preset number of cycles, Emergency mode will automatically end and the transceiver will return to the channel that was in use before Emergency mode was entered.

Note:

Your dealer can set a beginning of transmit and end of transmit tone for the transceiver.

Your dealer can set the transceiver to emit tones and received signals as normal or mute the speaker during Emergency operation.
