NOTICES TO THE USER ◆ Government law prohibits the operation of unlicensed radi transmitters within the territories under government control. ◆ Illegal operation is punishable by fi ne and/or imprisonment. ◆ Refer service to qualified technicians only. Safety: It is important that the operator is aware of, and understands, hazards common to the operation of any transceiver. One or more of the following statements may be applicable: FCC WARNING This equipment generates or uses radio frequency energy.
The AMBE+2TM voice coding Technology embodied in this product is protected by intellectual property rights including patent rights, copyrights and trade secrets of Digital Voice Systems, Inc. This voice coding Technology is licensed solely for use within this Communications Equipment. The user of this Technology is explicitly prohibited from attempting to extract, remove, decompile, reverse engineer, or disassemble the Object Code, or in any other way convert the Object Code into a human-readable form.

PRECAUTIONS • • • • • • • • • • • • Do not charge the transceiver and battery pack when they are wet. Ensure that there are no metallic items located between the transceiver and the battery pack. Do not use options not specified by KENWOOD. If the die-cast chassis or other transceiver part is damaged, do not touch the damaged parts. If a headset or headphone is connected to the transceiver, reduce the transceiver volume. Pay attention to the volume level when turning the squelch off.
• • • • • • • • • • • • 6 Do not disassemble or modify the transceiver for any reason. Do not place the transceiver on or near airbag equipment while the vehicle is running. When the airbag inflates, the transceiver may be ejected and strike the driver or passengers. Do not transmit while touching the antenna terminal or if any metallic parts are exposed from the antenna covering. Transmitting at such a time may result in a high-frequency burn.
Information concerning the battery pack: The battery pack includes flammable objects such as organic solvent. Mishandling may cause the battery to rupture producing flames or extreme heat, deteriorate, or cause other forms of damage to the battery. Please observe the following prohibitive matters. • Do not disassemble or reconstruct battery! The battery pack has a safety function and protection circuit to avoid danger.
• Use only the specified charger and observe charging requirements! If the battery is charged in unspecified conditions (under high temperature over the regulated value, excessive high voltage or current over regulated value, or with a remodeled charger), it may overcharge or an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
• Do not touch a ruptured and leaking battery! If the electrolyte liquid from the battery gets into your eyes, wash your eyes with fresh water as soon as possible, without rubbing your eyes. Go to the hospital immediately. If left untreated, it may cause eye-problems. • Do not charge the battery for longer than the specified time! If the battery pack has not finished charging even after the regulated time has passed, stop it. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
UNPACKING AND CHECKING EQUIPMENT Carefully unpack the transceiver. If any of the items listed below are missing or damaged, file a claim with the carrier immediately. SUPPLIED ACCESSORIES • • • • • • • • • Antenna .................................................................................. 1 Battery charger/ AC adapter (KSC-35S) ................................ 1 Li-ion Battery pack (KNB-45L) ................................................ 1 Speaker/ microphone jack cover ..........................
PREPARATION INSTALLING THE CHANNEL STOPPER You can set the channel stopper position for channels 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14. Inserting the Channel stopper prevents unnecessarily selecting channels which do not exist. • Selecting a channel which does not exist causes a continuous error tone to sound. 1 Set the Channel selector to channel 1, then pull the Channel selector knob off the transceiver.
INSTALLING/ REMOVING THE BATTERY PACK The battery pack is not charged at the factory; charge it before use. ◆ Do not short the battery terminals or dispose of the battery by fire. ◆ Never attempt to remove the casing from the battery pack. 1 Align the battery pack with the back of the transceiver, then press the battery pack and transceiver firmly together until the release latch on the base of the transceiver locks.
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK ATTENTION: ◆ Always switch OFF a transceiver equipped with a battery pack before inserting the transceiver into the charger. 1 Plug the AC adapter cable into the jack located on the rear of the charger. 2 Plug the AC adapter into an AC outlet. 3 Slide a battery pack or a transceiver equipped with a battery pack into the charging slot of the charger. • • Make sure the metal contacts of the battery pack mate securely with the charger terminals.
◆ The battery pack life is over when its operating time decreases even though it is fully and correctly charged. Replace the battery pack. INSTALLING THE ANTENNA Antenna Screw the antenna into the connector on the top of the transceiver by holding the antenna at its base and turning it clockwise until secure. Note: ◆ The antenna is neither a handle, a key ring retainer, nor a speaker/ microphone attachment point.
INSTALLING THE CAP OVER THE SPEAKER/ MICROPHONE JACKS Install the cap over the speaker/ microphone jacks when not using an optional speaker/ microphone or headset. Note: ◆ To keep the transceiver water resistant, you must cover the speaker/ microphone jacks with the supplied cap. 1 Insert the speaker/ microphone (or headset) plugs into the speaker/ microphone jacks of the transceiver.
ORIENTATION Microphone Speaker Antenna Battery pack a Selector Rotate to change the operating channel. b LED indicator For the LED indicator status, refer to page 18. c Power switch/ Volume control Turn clockwise to switch ON the transceiver. To switch OFF the transceiver, turn counterclockwise until a click sounds. Rotate to adjust the volume level. d PTT (Push to Talk) switch Press and hold, then speak into the microphone to transmit. e Side 1 key Press to activate its programmable function.
BASIC OPERATIONS SWITCHING POWER ON/OFF Turn the Power switch/ Volume control clockwise to switch the transceiver ON. Turn the Power switch/ Volume control counterclockwise fully to switch the transceiver OFF. ADJUSTING THE VOLUME Rotate the Power switch/ Volume control to adjust the volume. Clockwise increases the volume and counterclockwise decreases it. SELECTING A ZONE AND CHANNEL 1 Select the desired zone using the key programmed as [Zone Up] or [Zone Down]. • Each zone contains a group of channels.
RECEIVING Select the desired zone and channel. If signaling has been programmed on the selected channel, you will hear a call only if the received signal matches your transceiver settings. Receiving Group Calls When you receive a group call and the received group ID matches the ID set up on your transceiver, you can hear the caller’s voice. Receiving Individual Calls When you receive an individual call, a ringing tone will sound and the caller’s ID will appear on the display.
