In your communications network, you may be

is possible with your radio. However, you can
communicate with another radio within your
radio’s range without going through the repeater
by using the

Press the programmed
button to toggle between the options of making
or not making a call through the repeater. A
positive indicator tone indicates that the radio is
in repeater mode, while a negative indicator
tone indicates that the radio is in talkaround
mode.
SQUELCH
If a particular channel receives many unwanted
calls coming from radios that do not belong to
your communications group and some distance
away, or the “background noise” is excessive,
you can try to filter these transmissions out by

or tightening the squelch of your radio. A
positive indicator tone indicates that the radio is
operating in tight squelch, while a negative
indicator tone indicates that the radio is
operating in normal squelch.
POWER LEVEL
You can transmit your calls at different transmit
power levels. A higher level means you can
reach a radio that is farther away. Lower power
level conserves battery power. You are advised
to transmit as frequently as possible on low
power, and use high power only when needed.

these channels. Sixteen different channels can
be programmed into a scan list. Each channel
can share the same scan list or have different
scan lists assigned to them.
Once the radio’s scan operation is activated and
the radio detects a call coming through a
channel in its scan list, it switches to that
channel for you to receive the call.

A channel in your scan list may be prioritized

Phone
PHONE
You can use your radio to connect to a phone
line to make a phone call. You need a radio with
a keypad to do this.
To do this, your radio must send an access code
to a station that connects it to a phone line. After
you have finished your call, the radio has to
send a deaccess code to shutdown the
connection to the phone line.
MAKING A PHONE CALL
A complete phone session consists of
•entering the phone mode
•sending the access code
•sending the phone number
•having the phone conversation
•ending the phone call.
Entering the Phone Mode
Before you can make a phone call, you must
enter the radio’s phone mode.
1.Press the Phone button.
Sending the Access Code
Your radio can be programmed to send the
access code in any of the following three ways:
•manual (for radios with keypad only)
•automatic delay
•automatic immediate.
Check with your dealer for more details.
Method
Used
ManualDial the access code from the
keypad.

You can send
•a phone number that is stored in the
radio, or
•a new number (for radios with keypad
only).

Additionally, depending on how your radio is
programmed, if you use the keypad to send a
number, the radio can send the numbers in one
of the following ways:
Steps to Take
You do not have to do anything;
the radio immediately sends the
access code when it enters phone
mode.

The Phone Conversation
Once the radio has connected to the intended
party, you can begin the conversation. Even
though, this is a phone call, your conversation
mimics a radio call (i.e. both parties speak in
turn).
1.Press and hold the PTT, while talking into the
microphone.
2.Release the PTT when you finish what you
want to say, and wait for the response.
3.Continue in like manner until the conversation
ends.

ble Time-Out-Timer the
moment both parties stop
transmitting (talking). If the
Time-Out-Timer expires, the
radio will end the phone call.
Ending the Phone Call
PHONE
Just as the radio needs to send the access code
when starting a phone call, the radio needs to
send the deaccess code to end the phone call.
The radio can send the deaccess code in any of
the following ways:
•manual (for radios with keypad only)
•automatic.
Check with your dealer for details.
1.If your radio sends the deaccess code manually,
dial the deaccess code from the keypad.
2.Press the Phone button to exit phone mode
(radios using the automatic method will send
the code automatically).

SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION
OF MOTOROLA TWO-WAY RADIOS

instructions for the safe and efficient operation
of Motorola Portable and Mobile Two-Way
Radios.
The information provided in this document
supersedes the general safety information

Exposure To Radio Frequency Energy
Your Motorola Two-Way Radio, which
generates and radiates radio frequency (RF)
electromagnetic energy (EME) is designed to
comply with the following National and
International Standards and Guidelines
regarding exposure of human beings to radio
frequency electromagnetic energy:
•Federal Communications Commission
Report and Order No. FCC 96-326
(August 1996)
•American National Standards Institute
(C95.1 - 1992)

“Safety Considerations for
Human Exposure to EMFs
from Mobile Telecommunication Equipment (MTE) in
the Frequency Range
30MHz - 6 GHz.”(EMF Electro-Magnetic Fields)
To assure optimal radio performance and to
ensure that your exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic energy is within the guidelines
in the above standards, always adhere to the
following procedures:
Portable Radio Operation
And EME Exposure
•When transmitting with a
portable radio, hold radio in
a vertical position with the
MAN WITH RADIO
microphone 2.5 to 5 centimeters (one or two inches)
away from the mouth. Keep
antenna at least 2.5 centimeters (one inch) from your
head or body when transmitting.
•If you wear a portable Two-Way radio on
your body, ensure that the antenna is at
least 2.5 centimeters (one inch) from the
body when transmitting.
Electromagnetic
Interference/Compatibility
Note:Nearly every electronic device is susceptible
to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if
inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise
configured for electromagnetic compatibility.
•To avoid electromagnetic interference
and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off
your radio in any facility where posted
notices instruct you to do so. Hospital or
health facilities may be using equipment
that is sensitive to external RF energy.
•When instructed to do so, turn off your
radio when on board an aircraft. An y use
of a radio must be in accordance with
airline regulations or crew instructions.

Safety Information
Operational Warnings
Vehicles with an air bag
•Do not place a portable radio
in the area over an airbag or in the air bag
deployment area. Air bags inflate with
great force. If a portable radio is placed
in the air bag deployment area and the air
bag inflates, the radio may be propelled
with great force and cause serious injury
to occupants of vehicle.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
•Turn off your Two-Way radio when you
are in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is a radio type
especially qualified for use in such areas
(e.g. FM or Cenelec approved). Sparks in
a potentially explosive atmosphere can
cause an explosion or fire resulting in
bodily injury or even death.
Batteries
• Do not replace or recharge batteries in a
potentially explosive atmosphere. Contact sparking may occur while installing
!
!
W A R N I N G
or removing batteries and cause an
explosion.
Blasting caps and areas
•To av oid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio when
you are near electrical blasting caps. In a
“blasting area” or in areas posted “turn off two-way radio”, obey all signs and
instructions.
Note: The areas with potentially explosive atmo-
spheres referred to above include fuelling
areas such as: below decks on boats; fuel or
chemical transfer or storage facilities; areas
where the air contains chemicals or particles,
such as grain, dust or metal powders; and
any other area where you would normally be
advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always posted.

a damaged antenna comes into contact
with your skin, a minor burn can result.
Batteries
•All batteries can cause property damage
and/or bodily injury such as burns if a
conductive material such as jewellery,
keys or beaded chains touch exposed terminals. The conductive material may
complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise care
in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket,
purse or other container with metal
objects.
