Important: Enhancements to be used with this device do not meet the same durability or water resistance specifications as the device itself. For example, all the chargers are only to be used in dry conditions. They should never be used when damp or wet.

■ Interference filters (for RC-2 and RC-4)

To check the type number of your radio, remove the battery. The type number (RC-2, RC-3, or RC-4) is printed on the white label inside your radio. When charging an RC-2 or RC-4 radio with the charger ACP-8, ACP-9 or ACP-12, you need to use two electromagnetic interference filters. Two filters are supplied in the sales package, and they are also available as separate accessories. See

and RC-4) on page 24 for how to install the filters to the charger’s power cord.

General information

■ Active holder

The wearable active holder CRR-1 offers multiple carrying possibilities, and makes the Nokia THR880i radio an integral part of the work outfit.

■ Access codes

The factory setting for the four-digit PIN code is 1234. When the PIN code request is enabled, the code is requested each time the radio is switched on. See Security settings on page 106.

The factory setting for the five-digit security code is 12345.

To prevent unauthorised use of your radio, change the codes. Keep the new codes secret and in a safe place separate from your radio. See Security settings on page 106.

■ Modes of operation

Your radio has two modes of operation: network mode and direct mode. In the network mode, the radio operates using the TETRA network. In the direct mode, the radio operates without the network, so that the radios communicate directly

with each other. In the direct mode, only some functions of the radio are available. For more information on the direct mode, see Direct mode on page 65.

■ Transmission barring

When transmission barring is active, the radio does not send any signals to the network, and only limited network services are available. In the network mode, the radio can only receive group calls and status and text messages addressed to talk groups, providing that the radio is registered to the network. In the direct mode, the radio can receive direct mode calls. When transmission barring is active, the radio cannot re-register to the network, for example, if it is switched off and then on again.

The limited network services in the network mode are only available in the coverage area of the network cell where the radio was last registered. The radio cannot register to other network cells while transmission barring is active, and therefore the area of operation may be limited.

When transmission barring is active in the network mode, the radio cannot send the necessary information to the network about changes in talk groups. When transmission barring is active, you cannot change the selected group. If you make any other changes that affect talk groups, such as change the selected folder, home group, or the scanning priority of a group, you will not be able to receive further communication from the affected groups. After transmission barring has been deactivated, the radio can attempt to negotiate the changes with the network.

If you start to make a red key call or an emergency call to an emergency number programmed into your radio when transmission barring is active, the radio automatically deactivates transmission barring and attempts to make the call. See Red key calls and emergency calls in direct mode on page 70.

Note: If you start to make a red key call or an emergency call when transmission barring is active, transmission barring will be deactivated, and you should consider exiting the area where you wanted transmission to be barred.

To activate or deactivate transmission barring, select

Menu→Settings→Phone settings→Transmission barring→On or Off. Transmission barring should be active before you enter the area where you want transmission to be barred. or is displayed in the standby mode when transmission barring is active. Depending on predefined radio settings, the radio may send a notification message to the network about the activation. is displayed if the message does not need to be sent or message sending failed, and

is displayed if the message has been sent.

■ Network selection

In addition to your predefined home network, you may be able to select other networks in which your radio can operate (network service), for example, if you are not in the coverage area of your home network. The network can be changed automatically or manually; see Network selection on page 103.

Some services are network dependent, so the availability of services may change when the network is changed. In addition, the selected folder, selected group,

home group, or the availability of groups may change when the network is changed.

■ Using your device in wet and damp conditions

•You can use this device in the rain, but do not submerge it in water.

•If the device or the system connector has been exposed to salt water, wash it immediately with freshwater to avoid corrosion. The device must be carefully wiped dry.

•Before opening the back cover, dry the device to prevent water from reaching the interior of the device. The battery is not water resistant.

•Never charge the device when the bottom connector is wet or damp.

•Never use a damp device with enhancements that have an electrical function (such as a desk stand or car kit).

Note: Make sure the interior of your device and the back cover seals are dry, clean, and free of any foreign objects. Foreign objects may damage the seals against water.

1. Getting started

■ Install the battery

1.To open the battery cover, press the release button upwards, away from the bottom connectors. Pressing the release button down makes the opening harder.

2.Slide the battery under the back cover of the radio so that the end with the contacts enters first.

3.To close the battery cover, first pull it back and downwards so that the locking catches near the

hinge are directed towards their slots, and press them to make sure that they are locked in place (1). Then press the bottom end of the cover down to lock the cover in place (2). Be careful when closing the battery cover. If the cover is not properly closed or, for example, the locking catches or the seals are damaged, the durability of the radio against shocks and water is impaired.

Always switch the device off and disconnect the charger before removing the battery.

■ Install the electromagnetic interference filters (for RC-2 and RC-4)

To check the type number of your radio, remove the battery. The type number (RC- 2, RC-3, or RC-4) is printed on the white label inside your radio. When charging an RC-2 or RC-4 radio with the charger ACP-8, ACP-9, or ACP-12, you need to use two electromagnetic interference filters. Two filters are supplied in the sales package, and they are also available as separate accessories.

Install the filters to the charger’s power cord before you connect the charger to the radio or an AC wall outlet.

1.The filters should be placed on the power cord one after the other, within 15 cm (6 inches) of the charger. Place the power cord inside the opened filter, and then wrap it in one loop around the filter.

2.Close the filters around the power cord.

■ Charge the battery

1. Connect the lead from the charger to the bottom of your radio.

2.Connect the charger to an AC wall outlet. The battery indicator bar starts to scroll. Charging is

briefly displayed if the radio is switched on. You can use the radio while charging.

If the battery is completely empty, it may take a few minutes before the charging indication appears on the display, or any calls can be made.

3.The battery is fully charged when the battery indicator bar stops scrolling, and Battery full is briefly displayed if the radio is switched on.

If Not charging is displayed, charging has been suspended. Wait for a while, disconnect the charger, plug it in again, and retry. If charging still

fails, contact your dealer.

■ Switch the radio on and off

1.Press and hold to switch the radio on and off.

2.If the radio asks for a PIN code, enter the four-digit PIN code (displayed as ****),

and press OK.

3.If the radio asks for a security code, enter the five-digit security code (displayed as *****), and press OK.

For more information, see Access codes on page 19.

Your device has an external antenna.

Note: As with any other radio transmitting device, do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the device is switched on. Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the device to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.
