    hArging the Attery The battery pack is not charged at the factory; charge it before use. Average battery pack life (calculated using 5% transmit time, 5% receive time, and 90% standby time) is 7 hours. ATTENTION: Always switch OFF a transceiver equipped with a battery pack before inserting the transceiver into the charger.
  • Page 17 When charging is completed, the indicator lights green. Remove the battery pack or the transceiver from the charging slot of the charger. It takes approximately 3 hours to charge the battery pack. When the charger will not be used for a long time, unplug the AC adapter from the AC outlet.

  • Page 22: Voice Operated Transmission (Vox)

    VOICE OPERATED TRANSMISSION (VOX) Using the VOX feature, you can operate the transceiver hands-free. In order to use this feature, however, you must use an optional headset; VOX will not function with the built- in microphone. For best operating conditions, we recommend you use an optional headset with both an ear piece and a microphone on a boom that rests in front of your mouth.
  • Page 23 Press the Side 1 key to increase the VOX Gain level and the Side 2 key to decrease the level. The VOX Gain can be adjusted from level 1 to level 10 and OFF. The transceiver announces the VOX Gain level as you adjust it. If OFF is selected, the transceiver announces “Off”.

  • Page 24: Vox O Peration

    voX o perAtion Set up a VOX Gain level from 1 to 10 {page 14}. To transmit, simply speak into the headset microphone. You do not need to press the PTT switch; the transceiver automatically detects your voice and begins transmitting. To stop transmitting, stop speaking.

    BACKGROUND OPERATIONS (tot) imer The purpose of the Time-out Timer is to prevent you from using a channel for an extended period of time. This function is useful, for example, when you accidentally keep the PTT switch pressed. Additionally, by limiting the amount of time you can continuously transmit, this feature helps you save on battery power consumption.
