INSTRUCTION MANUAL

USER SAFETY INFORMATION

  • Do not use a damaged antenna. A damaged antenna that comes into contact with the skin may cause minor burns.
  • Do not use the radio or charge the battery in an explosive environ­ment such as gas, dust, steam, etc.
  • When you are refueling or parking at a gas station, turn off the ra­dio.
  • The unit cannot be modified or adjusted for any reason.
  • Do not expose the transceiver to direct sunlight for long periods of time, and do not place it near the heater.
  • Do not place the radio at extreme dust, moisture, or water splash­es, or place it on an unstable surface.
  • Repairs can only be carried out by professional technicians.
  • If you notice an odor or smoke from the transceiver, immediately turn off the power to the transceiver, remove the rechargeable bat­tery pack from the transceiver, and contact your supplier.

NOTE: It is important for users to understand and recognize the general risks of using walkie-talkies.

Charging instructions

To charge the Li-ion battery pack, note:

  • The battery pack is not charged at the factory, please charge it before use. After the purchase or long-term storage (more than two months), charging the battery pack for the first time does not allow the battery pack to reach its saturated usage capacity. After repeated charging and discharging two or three times, the normal charging effect and battery energy can be achieved.
  • Turn off the power of the radio with the lithium battery before charging. If you use a radio that is charging, it will prevent the bat­tery from charging properly.
  • After the correct charging, if the usage time does not increase, it means that the battery pack has reached the end of its life. Please replace it with a new one.

NOTE:

  • 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.
  • After Recharging the battery pack, disconnect it from the charger.
  • Do not short the battery terminals or discard the batteries in a fire.

Charging step

Put the charger plug into the mains 220V power socket first, and the charger green light.
Insert the battery pack or the transceiver with the battery pack into the charger card slot.
The red light of the charger flashes to start charging; after the full charge, the green light is on and the charging is over.

Loading/unloading lithium battery

To install the lithium battery, align the battery pack with the corre-13 sponding position on the aluminum frame on the back of the walk­ie-talkie, then push the battery in and pull the battery pack at the end of the battery until you hear voice “kaka”.
When you want to unload the battery pack, please turn off the walk­ie-talkie first.
First press the battery release button on the tail of the walkie-talkie.
Push the battery back at the same time.
Take the battery out in the direction.

Fixed antenna

Hold the antenna base and screw the antenna clockwise into the con­nector, until transceiver is tight.

NOTE : Please do not use the antenna as a handle. Hang the key­chain or external speaker microphone on the antenna. This will damage the antenna and reduce the performance of the transceiver.

Fixed belt clip

Lock the screws in the hole of back radio.

Install external speakers / microphone headphones

Open the dust cover, insert the earphone directly into the jack of the earphone.

4. AO presses the PTT to enter group 0, all radio in group O will turn on the squelch.
5. Press the side key again to exit the group call mode.

◊ All Call operation
If: AO wants to call all radios
1. Press side key to [All Call mode]. The screen displays show [All Call: 999)
2. AO presses the PTT to enter all radios, and all radios in group 0 and group 1 will turn on the squelch.
3. Press the side key again to exit the all call mode.

FAST CREATE COMMUNICATION GROUP

When a user initiates teaming on the radio, put into password, multiple devices can be quickly synchronized to one channel.

Fast create communication group method

◊ Receiver
1. Long press [Menu] , display show “Quick Team Rx”.
2. Press [UP/ DOWN] key to enter ?he password, press the [Menu) key to confirm until the three-digit password entered.

◊ Transmitter
1. Long press PTT then turn on radio;
2. Long press [Menu) , display show “Quick Team Tx”.
3. Press the [UP / DOWN] key to enter the password, press the [Menu] key to confirm t until the three-digit password entered.
4. Press the PTT, enter the fast create communication group mode, process is about 2 minutes, After the communication completed, the transmitter will exit the transmitting state, and the receiving will be restarted. At this time, the same group of members can talk to each other.
