OPERATOR CONVENIENCES
BATTERY LIFE
Before you operate the transceiver outside using a
battery pack, it is important to know how long you can
operate the transceiver. The following operating time
is measured under the condition of TX: 6 seconds,
RX: 6 seconds, and Stand-by: 48 seconds cycles.
We recommend you carrying extra battery packs, in
case the battery pack is discharged.

BATTERY REMAINING
You can confirm the remaining battery capacity using
this function. Confirm the battery type {below} prior to
use this function. To check the remaining capacity:
1 Press [F], [LOW].
• The battery remaining indicator appears.
: more than 70%
: 40% ~ 70%
: less than 40%
: needs recharging or replace the
batteries
2 Press [ ] or [MNU] to exit the Battery remaining
display mode.
Note:
◆
When the battery remaining indicator reads empty while using
alkaline batteries, you are still able to receive signals for a while.
◆
If you press [F], [LOW] while charging, “CHARGE” or
“STANDBY” appears {page 2}.
BATTERY TYPE
Before estimating the remaining battery capacity, set
the battery type in Menu No. 30 (BATTERY) to the
same type of battery that your are using (either
Lithium or alkaline).
1 Press [MNU].
2 Turn the Tuning control or press [ ]/ [ ] to select
Menu No. 30 (BATTERY).
3 Press [ ] or [MNU].
4 Turn the Tuning control or press [ ]/ [ ] to select
the battery type from “LITHIUM” and “ALKALINE”.
APO (Auto Power OFF)
The transceiver switches OFF automatically if no
keys or controls are pressed or adjusted, and no
signal is received for 30 minutes (default). 1 minute
before the transceiver switches OFF, warning beeps
sound for a few seconds and “APO” blinks. Then, the
transceiver turns OFF automatically. You can select
the APO time from OFF (disable), 30 (default), and
60 minutes.
1 Press [MNU].
2 Turn the Tuning control or press [ ]/ [ ] to select
Menu No. 18 (APO).
3 Press [ ] or [MNU].
4 Turn the Tuning control or press [ ]/ [ ] to select
the APO time from OFF, 30, or 60 minutes.
5 Press [ ] or [MNU] to store the setting.
Otherwise, press [ ] or [PTT] to cancel.
Note:
◆
The APO function does not work if the transceiver is scanning.
◆
When Tone Alert is ON, APO does not turn the power OFF.
◆
The APO timer starts counting down the time when no key
presses, no control adjustments, and no command (SP/MIC jack)
sequences are detected.
◆
The APO warning beep sounds even if Menu No. 19 (KEY
BEEP) {page 37} is selected “OFF”.
ATTENUATOR
The attenuator function is useful when extremely
strong signals exist nearby your receiving frequency.
When these type of signals are present, the receiver
gain control may be erroneously controlled and
overloaded by the strong signals, rather than by the
target receiving signal. If this happens, the target
receiving signal can be masked and buried by the
strong signals. In this case, turn the Attenuator
(approx. 20 dB) function ON. However, as a side
effect, the target signal is also attenuated. You may
have to adjust the VOL control to increase the audio
output level when it is ON.
1 Press [F], [MONI].
• “ATT ON” appears for 2 seconds on the display
and the mode indicator starts blinking.
2 To turn the attenuator function OFF, press [F],
[MONI] again.
• The mode indicator quits blinking.
Note:
◆
When the attenuator function is ON, both A and B-band, are
attenuated. You cannot set the attenuator function independently
for each band.
◆
“ATT ON” does not appear while scanning.
