UNPACKING AND CHECKING EQUIPMENT Carefully unpack the transceiver. We recommend you identify the items listed in the following table before discarding the packing material. If any items are missing or have been GDPDJHG GXULQJ VKLSPHQW ÀOH D FODLP ZLWK WKH FDUULHU immediately.
PREPARATION BATTERY PACK PRECAUTIONS Do not use battery packs or battery chargers not recommended by Kenwood. X Do not recharge the battery pack if it is already fully charged. Doing so may cause the lifespan of the battery pack to shorten or the battery pack may be damaged. X After charging the battery pack, disconnect it from the charger. If the charger power is reset (turned ON after being turned OFF), recharging will start again and the battery pack will become overcharged.
Information concerning the Li-ion battery pack: 7KH EDWWHU\ SDFN LQFOXGHV ÁDPPDEOH REMHFWV VXFK DV RUJDQLF VROYHQW 0LVKDQGOLQJ PD\ FDXVH WKH EDWWHU\ WR UXSWXUH SURGXFLQJ ÁDPHV RU extreme heat, deteriorate, or cause other forms of damage to the battery. Please observe the following prohibitive matters. DANGER • • • • • Do not disassemble or reconstruct battery! The battery pack has a safety function and protection circuit to avoid danger.
DANGER • • • • • • • 4 Do not charge the battery near fires or under direct sunlight! If the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur.
DANGER • • Do not reverse-charge or reverse-connect the battery! The battery pack has positive and negative poles. If the battery pack does not smoothly connect with a charger or operating equipment, do not force it; check the polarity of the battery. If the battery pack is reverse-connected to the charger, it will be reverse-charged and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur.
Q Using the Li-ion Battery Pack • • • Charge the battery pack before using it. To keep the battery discharge at a minimum, remove the battery pack from the equipment when it is not in use. Store the battery pack in a cool and dry location. When storing the battery pack for a long period: 1 Remove the battery pack from the equipment. 2 Discharge the battery pack, if possible. 3 Store the battery pack in a cool (below 25°C/ 77°F) and dry location.
INSTALLING/ REMOVING THE BATTERY PACK The battery pack is not charged at the factory; charge it before use {page 8}. Average battery pack life using low power : 18 hours (Battery Saver : off) Average battery pack life using high power : 14 hours (Battery Saver : off) • Average times are calculated using 5% transmit time, 5% receive time, and 90% standby time. X Do not short the battery terminals or dispose of the battery by ÀUH X Never attempt to remove the casing from the battery pack.
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK Initial charging of 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. X Do not recharge the battery pack if it is already fully charged. Doing so may cause the life of the battery pack to shorten or the battery pack may be damaged.

You will hear audio from the speaker only when you receive a signal that contains a tone or code matching the one set up on the channel you are using. Likewise, when you transmit on a channel set up with QT or DQT, the receiving station must have a matching tone or code in order to hear your signal.
SCANNING THE CHANNELS You can scan the transceiver channels to search for a signal. :KHQ WKH WUDQVFHLYHU YHULÀHV D VLJQDO RQ D FKDQQHO LW SURFHHGV to check whether or not its QT/ DQT setting matches that which is set up on your transceiver (if you have set a channel with QT/ DQT). If the QT/ DQT matches, the transceiver stops at the channel and opens the squelch so you can listen to the call. If the QT/ DQT does not match, the call is ignored and scanning continues.
To begin scanning: 1 Press and hold the • “ key for 1 second. µ DSSHDUV RQ WKH GLVSOD\ 2 When a signal is detected and the QT/ DQT matches, the channel number appears on the display and blinks. 3 When the signal is no longer present, the transceiver waits for 5 seconds before scanning continues.
MONITORING A CHANNEL When no signals are present, the squelch on the transceiver automatically mutes the speaker so you will not hear background noise. Using the MON key, you can open the squelch to unmute the speaker.
VOICE OPERATED TRANSMISSION (VOX) Using the VOX feature, you can operate the transceiver hands-free. In order to use this feature, however, you must use an optional headset; VOX will not function with the built-in microphone. For best operation conditions, we recommend you use an optional headset with both an ear piece and a microphone on a boom that rests in front of your mouth.
