Antenna Care Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the radio and may violate FCC regulations. Do NOT hold the antenna when the radio is IN USE. Holding the antenna affects its effective range. Body-Worn Operation To maintain compliances with FCC/Health Canada RF exposure guidelines if you wear a radio on your body when transmitting always place the radio in a Motorola-supplied or approved clip holder, holster, case or body harness for this product. Use of non-Motorola-approved accessories may exceed FCC/Health Canada RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use one of the Motorola-supplied or approved body-worn accessories and are not using the radio held in the normal use position, ensure the radio and its antenna are at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) from your body when transmitting. Data Operation If applicable, when using any data feature of the radio with or without an accessory cable, position the radio and its antenna at least one inch (2.5 cm) from the body.

The use of a two-way radio while engaged in activities requiring concentration may cause distraction or otherwise impair your ability to safely participate in such activities. Always use technology safely. Do not place a portable radio in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a portable radio is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the radio may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle. Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Turn off your radio prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Only radio types that are especially qualified should be used in such areas as Intrinsically Safe. Do not remove, install or charge batteries in such areas. Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Note: The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above include fueling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles (such as grain, dust or metal powders) and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are oftenbut not alwaysposted. Blasting Caps and Areas To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or in areas posted Turn off two-way radios. Obey all signs and instructions. Operational Cautions Antennas Do not use any portable radio that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can result. Batteries All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if a conductive materiallike jewelry, keys or beaded chains touch exposed terminals. The conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse or other container with metal objects. Exercise care when removing NiMH or AA batteries. Do not use sharp or conductive tools to remove either of these batteries. Battery Charger Safety Instructions: Save these Instructions 1. Do not expose the charger to rain or snow. 2. Do not operate or disassemble the charger if it has received a sharp blow, or has been dropped or damaged in any way. 3. Never alter the AC cord or plug provided with the unit. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. An improper condition can result in a risk of electric shock. 4. To reduce the risk of damage to the cord or plug, pull the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger from the AC receptacle. 5. To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from the outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. 6. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Motorola may result in a risk of fire, electric shock or personal injury. 7. Make sure the cord is located so it will not be stepped on, tripped over or subjected to damage or stress. 8. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of an improper extension cord could result in a risk of a fire and/or electric shock. If an extension cord must be used, make sure that: The pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same number, size and shape as those on the plug of the charger.

Scanning Channels Use scan to search the 22 channels for transmissions from unknown parties, to find someone in your group who has accidentally changed channels, or to quickly find unused channels for your own use. There is a priority feature and 2 modes of scanning ( basic and advanced ) to make your search more effective. The basic scan mode uses the channel and code combinations for each of the 22 channels as you have set them ( or with the default code value of 1). The Advanced Scan mode will scan all channels for any and all codes, detect any code in use, and use that code value temporarily for that channel. Priority is given to the home channel, that is, the channel (and Interference Eliminator Code) your radio is set to when you start the scan. This means the initial channel (and code setting) is scanned more often than the other 21 channels, and your radio will respond quickly to any activity occurring on the home channel as a priority. To start Scanning: 1. Briefly press the key. The scan will appear in the display, and the radio will begin to scroll through the channel and code combinations. 2. When the radio detects channel activity matching the channel and code combination, it stops scrolling and you can hear the transmission. 3.
