Left side
SCH Special channel: short press: switch to the special channel respectively back again
to the manual channel selection MCH
SW Special- and normal (=manual) channel watch: first press FC, afterwards SCH
This function is some kind of dual watch. The radio is switching between the last
manual selected channel MCH and the special channel SCH, so you can watch both
channels. The watching stops as soon as there is some noise on one channel.
TOT Time-Out-Timer on/off: with switched on time-out-timer the transmitter turns of and
back to receiving, if the PTT button is pressed longer than 3 minutes
A/F type of modulation (AM or FM, if activated): with these key you can choose
between AM and FM. The type of modulation will be displayed. The FM radios for
Austria do not have any function on this key.
CH9 direct dialing key: switches at the push of this button from the last selected channel
directly to channel 9 and back. Channel 9 is the international call- and emergency

this channel. Also for calling other stations, from which you know they are listenting
to channel 9, you can start a call there. Call the desired station. As soon as you got
someone from this station, agree on another channel and move there, so that
channel 9 is free again for other calls. Of course such an emergency channel only
works if there are enough stations who listen. So try to listen to this channel as

key your radio switches to your last used channel.
This channel is used by nearly all truckers also on AM.
M1-M3 select memory channel: press FC, afterwards press M1, M2 or M3
Change memory channel: choose a channel, press FC and afterwards press M1,
