RECYCLING / DISPOSAL OF BATTERIES

The battery should be recycled at the end of its useful life. Under various local laws, Ni-MH and Ni-Cd batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly and cannot be discarded in landfills or incinerators.

For further information on how to safely dispose of your used batteries, contact your dealer.

SL55+ OPERATION

POWER ON / VOLUME / POWER OFF

Turn the radio on by rotating the off/on/volume control clockwise.

You will hear a click and (if enabled via dealer programming), the radio’s self-test alert tones. Increase the radio volume by continuing the clockwise rotation.

To turn the radio off, rotate the control anti-clockwise until a click is heard.

CHANNEL SELECT / CHANNEL SCAN

To change radio channels, simply rotate the Channel Knob until the desired channel is reached.

If your radio has been programmed for scanning, you must rotate the knob to the channel that has been programmed to begin scanning.

MONITOR / TONE DEFEAT

The monitor button is located on the side of the SL55+ below the PTT button. Your radio may be set-up to either allow or dis-allow monitoring of a channel. Press and hold the monitor button to listen to the channel.

When on, the radio will continue to receive even if the signal is very low. This may assist clarity if the audio “chops on and off” while receiving.

TRANSMIT

Check the colour of the radio’s top-panel LED. It will illuminate orange if RF activity is present; it will not be illuminated if the radio indicates a “clear” channel. See page 11.

When the channel is “clear”, hold the radio microphone area approximately 5cm from your mouth, keeping the antenna
