Enable and Disable Side Tones
Your radio sounds confirming tones when you press the
Menu or Selector buttons. Most users find this audible
confirmation helpful in navigating the menus in the
Display Panel.
Turning off your radio does
not affect your Side Tone
setting, which will be saved
for your next use.
You can disable the side tones, if you wish, by
navigating to the Side Tone menu, and selecting
SIDEOFF. To re-enable the tones, you’ll need to
navigate back to the same menu (without the benefit of
side tones) and this time select SIDE ON.
 How to Disable Side Tones
1.) Press either Menu button and continue to press until
the Side Tone menu appears.
2.) The Current Condition will appear in the Display
Panel. The figure above indicates that your side tones
are ON.
3.) Press either Select button until the Display Panel
shows SIDEOFF.
4.) No further action is required. Your radio accepts your
choice and, after a short delay, reverts to the default
screen.
If your radio is operating as normal, but you don’t hear
confirming tones when you navigate the menus, most
likely your Side Tones are disabled.
