General Radio Operation
After a fully-charged battery and an antenna have been connected to the
radio, operation may begin. If necessary, refer to page 2 to insure a complete
understanding of the radio’s controls and indicators. Also, for your
convenience, the “Additional Information” section (starting on page 65)
contains a glossary, alert tone and status indicator tables, helpful tips, and
an index.
Turning the Radio On and Off
• Radio On
Turn the radio on by rotating the
On/Off/Volume
Control Knob
clockwise
. The radio then goes through a
power-up self test, and the display shows “Self Test.”
If the radio fails the self test, the display shows “ERROR
XX/YY,” where XX/YY is an alphanumeric code. Turn the
radio off, check the battery, and turn the radio back on.
If the radio still does not pass its self test, record the
“ERROR XX/YY”code and contact your nearest authorized
service technician.
• Radio Off
Turn the radio off by rotating the
On/Off/Volume
Control Knob
counterclockwise
until you hear a click.
