THANK YOU
We are grateful for your purchase of this KENWOOD product

personal, short range 2-way radio band for family & friends to
keep in touch without the need for a license, radio knowledge, or
monthly charges. Your KENWOOD
radio is called a
“transceiver”, meaning “transmitter & receiver”. Your transceiver
provides safety and convenience almost anywhere.
Communication distance depends on your location; you’ll get a
maximum distance of up to approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) in
open areas, less in buildings and vehicles.

reason.
• Avoid extremes in exposure to weather, heat, and cold. This
transceiver can be used in mild weather conditions, but it is
not waterproof.
• Do not expose the transceiver to long periods of direct
sunlight, nor place it close to heating appliances.
• Do not place the transceiver in excessively dusty, humid, or
wet areas, nor on unstable surfaces.
• If an abnormal odor or smoke is detected coming from the
transceiver, immediately switch OFF the power and remove
the batteries from the transceiver. Contact your KENWOOD
dealer.

• 38 code settings for each channel
