PREPARATIONPREPARATION
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACKCHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
The battery pack is not fully charged at the factory, please
charge it before use. Initially charging the battery pack after
purchase or extended storage (greater than 2 months) will
not bring the battery pack to its normal operating capacity.
After repeating the charge/discharge cycle two or three
times, the operating capacity will increase to normal.
Please charge according to the following steps:
1.Plug the adapter into a 110V socket.
2.Plug the DC plug into the DC jacket located on the
back of the charger.
3.The charging LED lights green when the charger
is to be charged.
4.Slide the battery pack or transceiver with the battery
pack into the desktop charger.
5.Make sure the battery pack contacts are in contact
with the charging terminals. The charging LED lights
red and charging begins.
6.Afrer charging about 3 hours, when the light turns to
green, it means the battery pack is fully charged.
Then you can take off the battery pack or trans-
ceiver with the battery pack and use it.
Note:
1.Do not short the battery terminals or dispose of the battery by
fire. Never attempt to remove the casing from the battery pack.
2.Keep the charging temperature always between 0℃ and 40℃.
Charging outside the temperature range may affect the right
charging.
3.Do not use the transceiver while charging is taking place.
4.Do not plug or unplug power supply or battery pack, in order
not to interrupt charging porgram.
5.When even if charged correctly, the battery pack still cannot
return back to its normal operating capacity. If this occurs, it
means the life of the battery pack has nearly come to an end,
please replace by a new one.
6.Do not charge when the battery or transceiver are wet. Use a
dry cloth to clean them before charging in order to avoid
danger.

Comparing with simplex communication, repeater communication can trasmit
signals further. Repeaters are often located on a mountain top or other elevated
location. They often operate at higher ERP (Effective Radiated Power) than
general stations. The combination of elevation and high EPR allows considerable
communication distance. Most repeaters use separate receiving and transmitting
frequencies. You can select the receiving and transmitting frequencies required
when programming the channel (Depended on the repeater frequency you are

FUNCTION SETTING AND DESCRIPTION FUNCTION SETTING AND DESCRIPTION

SCAN (SCAN)SCAN (SCAN)
It allows you to monitor the frequencies you want without the necessity
of operating manually. After being familiar with various scan modes, you
will increase your efficiency from flexibility of monitoring.
The transceiver provides with the following scan modes :
•VFO frequency scan : All frequencies in the entire band.
•Memory channel scan : Channels stored in the internal memory
channel.
SCAN METHODSCAN METHOD
Before using scan, it’s necessary to decide under what condition you
want your transceiver to continue scanning after detecting and stopping
for a signal. You can select one of the following modes :
•Time-Operated Mode (TO)
The transceiver stops scanning when detecting a signal,
remaining for about 5 seconds, and then continues to scan even if
the signal is still present.
•Carrier-Operated Mode (CO)
The transceiver stops scanning when detecting a signal,
remaining on the same channel until the signal disappears. There
is a 2 seconds delay between signal disappearance and scan
resumption to allow time for any responding stations to begin
transmitting.
Note : Press any key other than LAMP, / will make the transceiver stop
scanning.
SELECTING SCAN METHODSELECTING SCAN METHOD
1.Press + to enter into Scan method selection.
2.Use / keys to select :
• ：Carrier - Operated Mode.
• ：Time - Operated Mode.
VFO SCANVFO SCAN
VFO scan allows you to scan all frequencies from the lowest to the
highest frequency in the entire band.
1.Press key to begin scanning under VFO mode.
•The scan will begin from the present frequency displayed on the
LCD.
•To control scan direction, press key to scan forward, or key
to scan backward.
2.To cancel VFO scan, press any key other than LAMP, / .
MEMORY CHANNEL SCANMEMORY CHANNEL SCAN
Memory channel scan allows all stored memory channles to be
scanned.
1.Press key to enter into Memory channel scan.
2.Press key to begin scanning.
•Scan starts with the channel last recalled.
•To control scan direction, press key to scan forward, or key
to scan backward.
3.To cancel Memory channel scan, press any key other than LAMP,
/ .
Note:
1.You have to store at least 2 memory channels without being locked so that you
can proceed with memory channel scan.
2.The squelch function must be closed for scan to function.
3.You can proceed with memory channel scan under channel display mode.
FUNCTION SETTING AND DESCRIPTION FUNCTION SETTING AND DESCRIPTION

MEMORY CHANNEL
You can store frequencies and common settings under memory channel
so that you do not need to reset these data from the beginning every
time. Just a simple operation can call the frequency you need. There
are 199 memory channels available, you can store channels by
frequency-writing software at dealers.
STORING MEMORY CHANNELSTORING MEMORY CHANNEL
1.Input the frequency you need under VFO mode.
2.Press key, and will flash on the LCD display.
•The memory channel number will appear in the upper right corner.
3.Use / key to select the channel number where you want to
store the frequency.
4.Press key to confirm the setting and return back to VFO mode.
•The frequency selected and the related data will be stored in the
memory channel.
•If the memory channel selected in Step 3 has data in it, the new
data will replace the old one.
Note : Before storing the memory channel, please confirm if the receiving /
transmitting squelch numbers and the related settings have fully been set.
USING MEMORY CHANNELUSING MEMORY CHANNEL
1.Press key to enter into memory recall mode.
•The memory channel used last appears in the LCD display. If this
is the first time you use, then the least channel number will
appear.
2.Use / keys to select the memory channel you would like to
use.
•If you want to resume to VFO mode, press key to switch.
Note : The memory channel must have data stored or it cannot be used.

MAINTENANCE
USAGE AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONUSAGE AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTION
•Keep the transceiver dry. Rain, moisture, all kinds of liquid and water
may lead to circuit corrosion. If it is wet, remove the battery. Please
don’t install the battery until the transceiver is fully dry.
•Don’t keep the transceiver in dusty or dirty places, which will damage
the detachable parts and electronics components.
•Don’t keep the transceiver in overheated places. High temperature
will shorten the life of electronics equipments, destroy batteries, and
deform or melt some plastic parts.
•Do not place the transceiver in over cooling places. Otherwise when
it reaches the normal temperature, internally generated moisture will
destroy printing circuit boards.
•Turn on the transceiver according to the instruction of the manual,
never try other methods.
•Never drop, knock, or shake the transceiver. Treat it rudely will
damage internal printing circuit boards and precision structures.
•Never use strong chemicals, cleaning agents, or detergents to clean
the transceiver.
•Do not paint the transceiver with pigments. The painting may form a
clog in the detachable parts and affect normal operation.
•Don’t hold the antenna directly or have an external microphone
connection.
•When replacing an antenna, use only the one accompanied with the
kit or an approved one. An unapproved, refitted one may damage the
transceiver.
•Please charge indoors.
•Cover with the earphone plug when the transceiver is not in use.
•Please backup the necessary data (such as frequencies and
channels) before you send your transceiver to an authorized repair
station for service.
The above suggestions equally apply to your transceiver, battery, charger, and
every accessory. If any equipment cannot operate properly, pleae forward to an
authorized repair station for service.
For accuracy, the information contained in the manual has been checked carefully.
