PERFORMANCE
Your transceiver will achieve its maximum operating range when
communicating with other transciever(s) in a flat open area with
no trees or buildings obstructing its signal. Range may be up to
two miles under such conditions. Obstacles such as buildings,
trees or mountains will tend to reduce the transceiver’s effective
range.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
Your FR-314 may be powered by the BAT-314 rechargeable battery pack or three alkaline “AA” cells. Alkaline batteries will provide the best performance from your transceiver. Remove the
battery cover by rotating and removing the belt clip. Unsnap the
battery compartment clasp, and lift the battery cover from the
transceiver. Be careful not to lose the belt clip retainer. Observe
the polarity symbols inside the battery tray when installing the
battery pack or alkaline batteries. Remember to lock the battery
compartment clasp in place when finished.

THE FR-314’s CHARGING STAND
The FR-314 transceiver kit includes a high capacity nickel metal
hydride battery pack and charging stand. The charging stand is
designed for use only with the Audiovox BAT-314 battery pack. Never
attempt to charge other batteries with the charging stand.
The FR-314’s four step battery strength indicator will display the
current state of charge of the batteries or battery pack in the unit. 3
solid bars indicates a full charge, one or no bars indicates a low
charge.
To charge your BAT-314 battery pack, plug the AC adapter into a
household electrical outlet, and insert the DC output connector into
the receptacle at the base of the charging stand. Before placing the
transceiver into the charging stand, be sure it has been turned off.
Once the FR-314 is placed in the charging stand, the charge rate
indicator on the charging stand will begin to flash, confirming the
charging process. The charge rate indicator will flash rapidly, when
the battery charge is low. As the BAT-314 battery pack charges, the
indicator will flash at a slower rate. A fully charged battery pack is
indicated by a flash rate of once every 15 seconds. When charging
a deeply discharged battery pack, several beep tones may be heard
during the first moments of charging.
Nickel metal hydride batteries do not have a “memory” so the BAT314 battery pack can be charged at any time, regardless of its current
state of charge
THE BELT CLIP
The FR-314 Family Radio Kit includes a quick release belt clip. This
can be used to secure the radio to a belt or pocket. The clip allows
quick access to the transceiver at all times. To use the belt clip,
attach it to a belt or shirt pocket, then slide the round hinge retainer
into the slot on the belt clip. A click sound will be
heard when the transceiver is locked in place.
The belt clip will hold the tranceiver securly,
while allowing it to rotate from side to side.
To release the tranceiver, rotate it 180
degrees and lift it straight upwards.
