PREPARATION  
INSTALLING  
BATTERIES  
Your radio requires four AAA batter-  
ies (not supplied) for power. For the  
best performance and longest life,  
we recommend RadioShack alka-  
line batteries. You can also use Ra-  
dioShack rechargeable batteries  
and recharge them using an option-  
al charger.  
Cautions:  
Use only fresh batteries of the  
required size and recom-  
mended type.  
Do not mix old and new batter-  
ies, different types of batteries  
(standard, alkaline, or re-  
chargeable), or rechargeable  
batteries of different capaci-  
ties.  
1. Rotate the dial above POWER  
fully clockwise until the radio  
clicks to turn it off.

2. To remove the battery com-  
partment cover, press the  
raised dots on the cover and  
slide it down.  
3. Install the batteries, according  
to the polarity symbols (+ and  
–) inside.  
4. Replace the cover, then rein-  
sert the belt clip (if desired).  
The radio’s range decreases as bat-  
tery power decreases. To ensure  
maximum range, keep fresh batter-  
ies in the radio.  
When the batteries weaken, a tone  
sounds for about 5 seconds, the ra-  
dio will not transmit or receive, and  
an error tone sounds whenever you  
press PTT, MON, or CALL. Replace  
the batteries.  
Warning: Dispose of old batteries  
promptly and properly. Do not burn  
or bury them.  
Caution: If you do not plan to use  
the radio for a week, remove the  
batteries. Batteries can leak chemi-  
cals that can destroy electronic  
parts.

CARE  
To enjoy your Personal Two-Way  
Radio for a long time:  
Keep the radio dry. If it gets  
wet, wipe it dry immediately.  
Use and store the radio only in  
normal temperature environ-  
ments.  
Handle the radio gently and  
carefully. Don’t drop it.  
Keep the radio away from dust  
and dirt.  
Wipe the radio with a damp  
cloth occasionally to keep it  
looking new.  
Modifying or tampering with the ra-  
dio’s internal components can  
cause a malfunction and might in-  
validate the radio’s warranty and  
void your FCC authorization to use  
it. If your radio is not performing as  
it should, take it to your local Ra-  
dioShack store for assistance.

FCC NOTICE  
Important: Do not open your radio  
to make any internal adjustments.  
Your radio is set to transmit a regu-  
lated signal on an assigned fre-  
quency. It is against the law to alter  
or adjust the settings inside the ra-  
dio to exceed those limitations. Any  
adjustments made to your radio  
must be made by a qualified techni-  
cian using the proper test equip-  
ment.  
To be safe and sure:  
Never open your radio’s case.  
Never change or replace any-  
thing in your radio except the  
batteries.  
Your radio might cause TV or radio  
interference even when it is operat-  
ing properly. To determine whether  
your radio is causing the interfer-  
ence, turn it off. If the interference  
goes away, your radio is causing it.  
Try to eliminate the interference by:  
moving your radio away from  
the receiver  
calling your local RadioShack  
store for help  
If you cannot eliminate the interfer-  
ence, the FCC requires that you  
stop using the radio.
