BASIC USER GUIDE

Radio Operation

When the self test is complete the self test tone will sound. The radio will then scan for system access with the LED on the top of the radio flashing GREEN. When a system is acquired, the green LED will go off.

Making a Call

Before you can make a call the radio must be in the IDLE STATE, i.e. a personality has been selected and no call is in progress.

The radio is capable of making a variety of calls, including calls to individual radios, groups of radios and calls to private and public telephone systems.

Please contact your dealer for further information.

There are two types of systems on which the radio may be used, Off Air Call Set Up (OACSU) and Full Off Air Call Set Up (FOACSU). If you are in doubt about which system you are operating on, please consult your dealer.

Receiving a call on an OACSU system -

When the radio is called tone D will sound and the LED flashes. This will then be followed by tone B.

Receiving a call on an FOACSU system -

When the radio is called, a ringing tone will sound and the LED flashes. Press the PTT to accept the call. Tone D will sound until a speech channel is allocated, then tone B sounds.

Note:The system may have a limited call time and

the call may be terminated automatically if this call time is exceeded.

Cancelling or Ending a Call

At any time while setting up a call it may be cancelled by pressing the clear button. The call timer can also cancel calls.

A call should always be ended by pressing the clear button.

BATTERY INFORMATION

Battery Care and Tips

This product is powered by a nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd), nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH), or lithium-ion rechargeable battery.

The following battery tips will help you obtain the highest performance and longest cycle life from your Motorola rechargeable battery.

• Charge your new battery overnight (14-16 hrs)

before using it to obtain maximum battery capacity and performance.

• Charging in non-Motorola equipment may lead to battery damage and void the battery warranty.

• When charging a battery that is attached to the radio, turn the radio off to ensure a full charge.

• The battery should be at about 25°C/77°F (room temperature) whenever possible. Charging a cold battery (below 10°C/50° F) may result in leakage of electrolyte and ultimately, in failure of the battery.

• Charging a hot battery (above 35°C/95°F) results in reduced discharge capacity, affecting the performance of the radio. Motorola rapid-rate battery chargers contain a temperature-sensing circuit to ensure that the battery is charged within these temperature limits.

• New batteries can be stored up to two years without significant cycle loss. Store new/unused batteries in cool dry area.

• Batteries which have been in storage should be charged overnight.

• Do not return fully charged batteries to the charger for an “extra boost”. This action will significantly reduce battery life.

• Do not leave your radio and battery in the charger when not charging. Continuous charging will shorten battery life. (Do not use your charger as a radio stand.)

• For optimum battery life and operation use only Motorola brand chargers. They were designed to operate as an integrated energy system.

Recycling or Disposal of Batteries

At the end of its useful life, the NiCd battery can be recycled. However, recycling facilities may not be available in all areas.

Motorola endorses and encourages the recycling of all re-chargeable batteries. Please contact your dealer for further information.

BASIC USER GUIDE

Charging the Battery

If a battery is new, or its charge level is very low, you will need to charge the battery before you can use it in your radio.

Note: Batteries are shipped uncharged from the

factory. New batteries could prematurely indicate full charge, charge a new battery for

14-16 hrs before initial use.
