Setting The Quiet Code and Channel

Use the 4-digit DIP switches inside the battery compartment to set the 
quiet code and channel.  The left array of switches controls the quiet 
code, while the right array controls the channel.

Note:  You can only communicate with another radio which uses the same
       channel and Quiet code as your radio.

Installing Batteries

Your radio uses three AA batteries for power.  For the longest life, we 
recommend alkaline batteries (available from your local RadioShack store).
You can also use rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries (such as Cat. No.
23-325) and recharge them in the radio using an optional AC adapter (such
as Cat. No. 273-1663).

Follow these steps to install batteries.

1.  Turn the radio off, remove the screw from the belt clip, then slide
    off the battery compartment cover.

2.  Set the switch inside the compartment to ALKALINE (for alkaline
    batteries) or Ni-Cd (for rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries).

    CAUTION:  Do not use alkaline batteries with the switch set to Ni-Cd.
              Doing so could damage the batteries or the radio.

3.  Install the batteries, matching the polarity symbols (+ and -) inside
    the compartment.

4.  Replace the cover.

CAUTION:  Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries
          (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries
          of different capacities.

The radio's range decreases as the battery power decreases.  To ensure
maximum range, keep fresh batteries in the radio.

When the TX/LO BATT (Transmit/Low Battery) indicator flashes when you are
not holding down PTT or pressing CALL, replace the batteries.

Recharging Nickel-Cadmium Batteries

If you use rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries, you can recharge them in
the radio using an optional AC adapter (such as Cat. No. 273-1663).  Be
sure the switch inside the battery compartment is set to Ni-Cd.

CAUTION:  You must use an AC adapter that supplies 6 volts DC and delivers
          at least 70 mA.  Its center tip must be set to positive and its
          plug must fit the radio's CHRG jack.  The recommended adapter
          meets these specifications.  Using an adapter that does not meet
          these specifications could damage the radio or the adapter.

1.  Attach the adapter's 3.4 mm outer diameter/1.3 mm inner diameter
    barrel plug to the adapter and set TIP to positive (+).

2.  Connect the charger's barrel plug to the radio's CHRG jack and plug
    its other end into a standard AC outlet.

3.  Complete charging takes about 15 hours.  When charging is complete,
    unplug the AC adapter from the AC outlet then disconnect it from the
    CHRG jack.
