SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4.1 GENERAL
Please read carefully through the following information concerning safety and proper use. Make yourself familiar with
all functions of the device. Keep this manual on a safe place for future use.
4.2 BURNING INJURIES
•
If the cover of the antenna is damaged, do not touch because when an antenna comes in contact with the skin, a
minor burn may result when transmitting.
•
Batteries can cause property damage such as burns if conductive material such as jewellery, keys or beaded
chains touches exposed terminals.The material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite
hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse or other con-
tainer with metal objects.
4.3 PERSONAL SAFETY
•
Do not place your device in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great
force. If a communicator is placed in the bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the communicator may be
propelled with great force and cause serious injury to the occupants of the vehicle.
•
•
•
Keep the radio at least 15 centimetres away from a pacemaker.
Turn your radio OFF as soon as interference is taking place with medical equipment.
Do not replace batteries in a potentially explosive atmosphere. Contact sparking may occur while installing or
removing batteries and cause an explosion.
•
•
Turn your communicator off when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Sparks in such areas could
cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Never throw batteries in fire as they may explode.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but not always, clearly
marked. They include fuelling areas such as below deck on boats, fuel or chemical
transfer or storage facilities; areas where the air contains chemicals or particles,
such as grain, dust or metal powders; and any other area where you would
normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

USING A PMR DEVICE
To communicate between PMR devices they need to be set all on the same channel and within receiving range (up to
max. 3 km in open field). Since these devices use free frequency bands (channels), all devices in operation share these
channels(total 8 channels). Therefore, privacy is not garanteed. Anybody with a PMR set to your channel can overhear
the conversation.
If you want to communicate (transmitting a voice signal) you need to press the PTT - button (Push to talk). Once this
button pressed, the device will go into transmit mode and you can speak into the microphone. All other PMR devices
in range , on the same channel and in standby mode (not transmitting) will hear your message. You need to wait until
the other party stops transmitting before you can reply to the message. At the end of each transmission the unit will
send a beep. To reply, just press the PTT - button and speak into the microphone.
If 2 or more users press the PTT - button at the same time the receiver will receive
only the stongest signal and the other signal (s) will be supressed. Therefore you
should only transmit a signal (press
- button) when the channel is free .
