Changing channel
The walkie-talkie has eight selectable channels. To change channels:

Press the power switch until the current channel number flashes on the display.
While the channel number is flashing:
• Press the up button to select a higher channel number.
• Press the down button to select a lower channel number.
• The channel number changes from 1 to 8 or from 8 to 1.
Press the PTT button to confirm the selected channel and return to normal mode.

Selecting high/low output

Press the power button twice to enter the function to select a high/low output.
Press the up or down button to select the output level. “L” is displayed when a low level is selected. The alow output level can extend battery life, but at the same time reduces the range.

Monitoring
You can select a monitor to check weak signals on the selected channel.

Press the power switch three times to enable this function.
Press the power switch once again to disable the function.

Using the lamp
Press the lamp button to switch on the lamp. The lamp also works when the walkie-talkie is switched off.
Automatic energy-saving function
The walkie-talkie automatically enters an energy power-saving mode to extend battery life six seconds after the last operation. However, the walkie-talkie can still receive transmissions in this mode.
Low battery voltage indication
An audible signal is emitted and the red LED lights up every 15 seconds when the battery drops to a certain level. Replace the batteries as soon as possible.
Scanning channels
The Scan channels function (button 10) searches for active signals in a continuous sequence from 1 to 8.

Hold down the Scan button (S) for one second to enable the scan function. The channel number on the display changes quickly until an active signal is found. In Scan channels mode:
• Hold the PTT button down to speak to others using the same channel.
• Press the call button (C) to transmit a call signal on the active channel.
• Hold the Scan button down again for one second to disable the scan function.
When an active signal is detected (1 of 8 channels) the function stops and holds the signal.
Press the PTT button to communicate via the active channel and disable the scan function.
When an active signal is detected, but another channel is required, press the up or down arrow to continue the search for another active channel.

Sending call signals
You can send call signals (C button) to let people know that you are trying to contact them. You can also use the same button to start or stop transmission.

Press and release the C button twice. The TX symbol lights and the call signal is activated for three seconds.
Release the C button. The call signals are transmitted to nearby receivers that are set to the same channel.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem: No power.

Make sure the batteries are installed correctly.
The batteries may be weak. Replace or recharge the batteries if they are discharged.

Problem: Weak reception.

Press the up button to increase the volume.
The incoming signal may be weak or outside the range of the walkie-talkie.
If this happens, use the monitor function.

Problem: Cannot change channels.

To change the channel, press until the channel number is flashing:
Press the up or down button to change the channel.
The batteries may be weak.

Problem: Limited range.

The batteries may be weak.
The maximum range depends on the terrain and other environmental factors.
Open fields offer the best range. The range may be limited in steel/concrete buildings, dense forests, and vehicles.
The range is also limited if the walkie-talkie is worn close to the body, e.g. in a pocket or on a belt.

Problem: Noise interference.

If you are transmitting, speak in a normal voice 5 to 7.5 cm from the microphone.
If you are receiving a transmission, lower the volume to a suitable level.
A walkie-talkie is located too close. Keep units at least 1.5 meters apart from each other.
Too great distances between the units or obstacles block the transmission. In open fields, without obstacles, the range is up to five kilometers.
