available channels) are designated for “Scanning,” the user may nonetheless assign
Channel 2 as the “User-assigned” Priority Channel via the FM-Scan (Follow-Me
Scan).

designate as the “User-Assigned Priority Channel” and press (or press and hold)
the assigned programmable key. Then press (or press and hold) the Channel Up/

nel which has been programmed by your dealer to activate the scanner. When the
scanner stops on an “Active” channel, the User-assigned Priority Channel will
automatically be checked every few seconds; if activity is found on the User-as-
signed Priority Channel, the radio will switch between it and the Dealer-Assigned
Priority Channel, if any.
