CAUTION

SAFETY INFORMATION

Your wireless hand-held portable transceiver contains a low power
transmitter. When the PTT button is pushed (or the VOX mode is enabled)
it sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. The device is authorized to operate
at a duty factor not to exceed 50%. In August 1996, the Federal
Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines
with safety levels for hand-held wireless devices.

Important: T o maintain compliance with the FCC’ s RF exposure guidelines

hold the transmitter at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) from your
face and speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up
and away. If you wear the handset on your body while using the
headset accessory, use only the Audiovox supplied carry clip
for this product and ensure that the antenna is at least 1 inch
(2.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use only
the supplied antenna. Do not use your transceiver with a
damaged antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the transmitter and may violate
FCC regulations.

Performance:

Your transceiver will only achieve its maximum operating range when
communicating with other transceivers across open and flat areas or
between elevated points. Normally occurring environmental factors such
as buildings, trees, terrain and weather, or interference from other radio or
electrical equipment, may have adverse effects on the transceiver’s effective
range. These are not indicative of a fault condition.

Avoid placing the GMRS200 radio transceiver for prolonged periods of
time in direct sunlight or temperatures below -4
140

°F (60°C).

Place the rubber cover on jacks when not in use.

Powering the transceiver:

Your GMRS200 radio transceiver operates on four rechargeable batteries.
Only approved rechargeable batteries can be recharged in the
GMRS4WM wall mount charger. This will ensure optimum performance
for the GMRS200. Battery charging time is typically 10-12 hours.
Use of other brands of rechargeable batteries is not recommended as
battery charging time will vary. Do not mix old and new, or batteries of
differing manufacture, since the charging will be uneven and will
result in decreased battery life.

If necessary, four AAA alkaline batteries can be used to power the GMRS200,
but note that these type batteries can not be recharged and damage to

the charger or the batteries may result if the units are placed in the
GMRS4WM wall mount charger with the alkaline batteries installed.
FOR THIS REASON, IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO USE ALKALINE

BATTERIES IN THE GMRS200.
DO NOT PLACE GMRS200 TRANSCEIVERS IN THE CHARGING

STAND IF THERE ARE ALKALINE BATTERIES INSTALLED.

Channel Selection

In order to communicate with other GMRS units, both transmitting and
receiving party must be on the same frequency. The GMRS200 has 22
channels (frequencies) indicated by the large digits on the LCD display
panel. Channels 1 through 7 are the shared GMRS/FRS channels.
Channels 8-14 are FRS only channels, while channels 15-22 are
assigned GMRS only channels. If an FRS only channel (8-14) has
been selected, the HI or LO indicator will not be displayed on the LCD
panel; otherwise, for channels 1-7 (GMRS/FRS) and 15-22 (GMRS
only), the HI or LO indicator will be displayed. Communication with
Audiovox FRS and compatible units is possible on the shared and FRS
only channels. Before transmitting on the selected channel, press the
Monitor (M) Button (2) to check the activity on that channel. If there is activity
on the selected channel, change to another channel that is clear.

To change the channel:

- From GMRS/FRS standby mode, press the MODE button (12) once
or until the channel number flashes.

- Press the Up Button (10) briefly to move to the next higher main
channel number.

NOTES FOR GOOD COMMUNICA TION

1 . The GMRS200 22 channels are shared on a ‘take turns’ basis.

This means other groups may be talking on any of the channels.
A common code of ethics/courtesy is to switch to another vacant
channel and not to attempt to talk over someone who is already using
the channel you first selected.

2. The GMRS200 has been designed to maximize performance
and improve transmission range in the field. To avoid interference,
it is recommended that you do not use the units closer than 5 feet
apart.

3. For best transmission results, always keep your mouth about 2-3
inches from the microphone (9) and speak slowly in a normal voice.

4. To increase battery life, avoid features such as Scan and Dual
Watch. These features will reduce operating time considerably.

Warning

Do not operate the transceiver unless you are licensed to do so.

•

Remove the batteries from the transceiver if it is not expected to be used

•

for long periods. This will eliminate the possibility of chemicals leaking
from the batteries and corroding the transceiver.

Avoid exposing the transceiver to water or extremes of temperature.

•

Do not use this device in or near a mining facility, which uses remotely

•

triggered explosives or in areas labeled “Blasting Area”. Premature or
accidental detonation may result.

Do not attempt to modify or in any way increase the output of this

•

transceiver. Its output is designed to meet the legal limits set by the FCC.
Do not use this device or change its batteries in potentially explosive

•

atmospheres as sparks in such areas could result in an explosion.
Turn your transceiver off wherever posted notices restrict the use of radios

•

or cellular telephones. Facilities such as hospitals may use equipment
that is sensitive to RF energy.

20

128-xxxx

20 of 28

Turn your transceiver off on board aircraft when requested to do so.

•

Do not place your radio in front of a vehicle’s air-bag. If the air-bag de-

•

ploys, it could propel the transceiver like a projectile causing bodily injury.
