Care and Maintenance

General Use

• Turn the scanner off before disconnecting the power.
• Always write down the programmed frequencies in
the event of memory loss.
• If memory is lost, simply reprogram each channel.
• Always press each button firmly until you hear the
entry tone for that key entry.

Location

• Do not use the scanner in high-moisture
environments such as the kitchen or bathroom.
• Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or near
heating elements or vents.
• If the scanner receives strong interference or
electrical noise, move it or its antenna away from the
source of the noise. If possible, a higher elevation
might provide better reception.
• Also try changing the height or angle of the antenna.

Cleaning

• Disconnect the power to the unit before cleaning.
• Clean the outside of the scanner with a mild
detergent.
• To prevent scratches, do not use abrasive cleaners or
solvents. Be careful not to rub the LCD window.
• Do not use excessive amounts of water.

Repairs

Do not attempt any repair. The scanner contains no user
serviceable parts.
