quency. Check the system and monitor the fre-
quency to make sure that you are not going to
disturb any ongoing communications.

then press CALL key while F icon is on the

4, If operating from a vehicle, do not transmit for
extended periods without running the engine,
to avoid battery drainage. Check the battery
voltage often. The lights, windshield wipers,
stereo system, air-conditioner, defogger and
other accessories drain the battery’s power con-
siderably. When those accessories are turned
on, reduce the output power or turn off one or
more accessories to avoid the battery becom-
ing overloaded. Watch the road when driving.
Check local regulations that may pertain to the
use of a transceiver when driving.
