6. Overcharge shall always be prohibited for it may shorten the life of your battery.
■Maintenance Instructions

To help your battery work normally or prolong its life, be sure to observe the following instructions:
1. Accumulated dust on charging connector may affect normal charging. Please use a clean and dry cloth to wipe it on a
regular basis.
2. It is recommended to charge the battery under 5℃~40℃. Violation of the said limit may cause battery life reduction or
even battery leakage.

MAINTENANCE
To be safe and sure:
•Never open your radio’s case.
•Never change or replace anything in your radio except the batteries.

■Care and Safety
Your F19 was designed to fulfill any warranty obligations and to enjoy this product for many years.
As for all the electronically devices, we recommend you to follow this few suggestions:
•Do not attempt to open the unit. Non-expert handling of the unit may damage it and/or annul the warranty.
•When using regulated power supply, take notice of power voltage that must be 5V to avoid damages.
• High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices, and warp or melt certain plastics. Do not store the radio in
dusty or dirty areas.
• Keep the Radio dry. Rainwater or damp will corrode electronic circuits.
• If it appears that the Radio diffuses peculiar smell or smoke, please shut off its power immediately and take off the charger
or battery from the Radio.
• Do not transmit without antenna.
• To clean the radio, use a soft cloth dampened with water. Do not use cleaners or solvents because they can harm the body
of the unit and leak inside, causing permanent damage.
• Use a dry, lint-free cloth to clean the battery contacts.
■Hazardous Environments
Do not operate the radio in hazardous environments. Explosion or fire may result. Do not operate the radio near unshielded
electrical blasting caps.
Under certain conditions, radios can interfere with blasting operations and may cause an explosion. Turn your radio OFF to
prevent accidental transmission when in a blasting area or in areas posted: "Turn off two-way radio." Construction crews
often use remote control RF devices to set off explosives.
WARNING! Read this information before using the radio. In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
of the United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure
to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters.
Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies. The
design of the radio complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards.

Never allow children to operate the radio without adult supervision and the knowledge of the following guidelines.

after charging.
Note:
• Use only the supplied battery and AC adapter or approved accessories from pofung.
• Charge time may vary depending on the battery life remaining.
• The battery must be installed for the unit to operate, even if the unit is also connected to external power.

OPERATIONS
Turning the Radio On and Adjusting the Volume
Press and hold [Power ] to turn the radio on. Increase the speaker volume by pressing [VOL +]. To decrease the volume,
press [VOL -].
Press and hold [Power ] again to turn the radio off.
Choosing a Channel
Your radio has 22 channels and 260 Privacy codes you can use to talk to others. In order to speak to someone, each of you
must be set to the same channel and Privacy code.
With the radio in "Normal" operating mode, press the [CH+]/[CH-] keys to increase or decrease the channel number
displayed.
Transmission
To communicate, all radios in your group must be set to the same channel. Briefly press [Monitor] key to enable the Monitor
feature in order to make sure that the frequency is not busy, and then press the [PTT] key. Release the [PTT] key to receive.
Only one user at a time can talk during radio communications. Therefore, it is important not to transmit when you are
receiving a communication and use the transmission mode sparingly to allow other users to talk. Transmission consumes a
significant amount of energy and should therefore be used sparingly to prolong the battery life. If you are unable to contact a
station that you have no problems in receiving, the station may be using CTCSS tones or DCS codes.
Monitor
The Monitor feature is for excluding (opening) the Squelch, in order to listen to signals that are too weak to keep the Squelch
permanently opened. Hold down the [Monitor] key to enable such function.
