Holsters Incorporating Magnets
Some Motorola Solutions holsters incorporate strong, neodymium magnets. If you use a personal medical device, such as a pacemaker or hearing aid, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it can be used in close proximity to magnets. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Also be aware that magnets can damage other products, including cell phones, computers, hard drives, and other electronic devices, as well as credit cards and magnetic media. Keep the holster away from any mechanical device that could be affected by a magnetic field. Consult the manufacturer of your product to determine if your device or product can be used in close proximity to magnets.

Operational Warnings
The following explains the operational warnings:
For Vehicle With Air Bags

Warning:

  • Refer to vehicle manufacturer’s manual prior to installation of electronic equipment to avoid interference with air bag wiring.
  • DO NOT place a portable radio in the area over an air bag 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 the vehicle.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Warning:

  • Use of a radio that is not intrinsically safe in a potentially explosive atmosphere could result in a serious injury, or death. You should only use a certified Intrinsically Safe radio in potentially explosive atmospheres.
  • Explosive atmospheres refer to hazard classified locations that may contain hazardous gas, vapors, dusts, such as fueling areas below decks on boats, fuel, or chemical transferor storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but not always, posted.
  • Turn off your radio prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere unless it is a radio type specifically certified for use in hazardous location areas.
  • DO NOT remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas, or remove or install antennas. Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Blasting Caps and Blasting Areas

Warning: To avoid 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.

Caution

Use only Motorola Solutions approved batteries. Risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type.

  • Charge your battery using the approved Motorola Solutions charger.
  • Connect the charger/power supply to a nearby and easily accessible power outlet.
  • Use the battery in accordance with its water and/or dust Ingress Protection (IP) rating.
  • DO NOT discard your battery into a fire.
  • Do not replace the battery in any area labeled “Hazardous Atmosphere”.
  • DO NOT disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or otherwise attempt to change the form of your battery.
  • DO NOT dry a wet or damp battery with an appliance or heat source, such as a hair dryer or microwave oven.
  • DO NOT allow conductive material such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains to touch exposed battery terminals.
  • Do not dispose of batteries with household waste.

Do Not Substitute Options or Accessories
The Motorola Solutions communications equipment certified as intrinsically safe by the approving agency (FM, UL, CSA, CENELEC) is tested as a complete system which consists of the listed agency approved portable, approved battery, and approved accessories or options, or both. This approved portable and battery combination must be strictly observed. There must be no substitution of items, even if the substitute has been previously approved with a different Motorola Solutions communications equipment unit. Approved configurations are listed by the approving agency (FM, UL, CSA, CENELEC).

The Intrinsically Safe Approval Label affixed to radio refers to the intrinsically safe classification of that radio product, and the approved batteries that can be used with that system.The manual PN referenced on the Intrinsically Safe Approval Label identifies the approved accessories and/or options that can be used with that portable radio unit. Using a non-Motorola Solutions-intrinsically safe battery and/or accessory with the Motorola Solutions-approved radio unit will void the intrinsically safe approval of that radio unit.

Basic Radio Operations

Read this reference guide completely before attempting to operate the unit.

Automatic Power Save
For better battery life, your radio is designed to switch to Power Save mode when there has been no transmissions after 3 s. The radio can receive transmissions in this mode.

 

Easy Pairing

This feature allows a group of radio users to program all their radios to the same Channel and Sub-Code settings quickly and simultaneously. Any radio within the group can be designated as the “Leader’s radio” and have it’s Channel and Sub-Code settings transmitted to and copied by all the other radios in the group called “Members’ radios”.

Note: When the “Leader’s radio” has no Sub-Code feature, all radios in the group will have their Sub-Code set to zero. When the Sub-Code is set to zero, all transmissions on the selected channel will be heard, regardless of the transmitting radio Sub-Code setting.

  1. Pick any of the radios as the “Leader’s radio”. On this radio, program the Channel and Sub-Code to the desired settings. See “Selecting the Channel” and “Selecting the Sub-Code” sections in this user manual. The Sub-Code for your radio is fixed at zero and cannot be programmed.
  2. To copy the channel and Sub-Code combination to all the other “Members’ radios”, press and hold the   button on the Members’ radios” until you hear a beep. Release the button after the beep, and wait for the transmission from the “Leader’s radio.”

Note:
• You will see the icon blinking on the display. This confirms that the radio is in Easy Pairing mode waiting to receive the Channel and Sub-Code settings from the “Leader’s radio”. All “Leader’s radio” will remain in this mode for three minutes.
• A group with many radios should have all users take this step at the same time, so all radios can be programmed together.

3. On the “Leader’s radio”, press and hold down the button until you hear a double beep.

Note:

  • At the double beep, this radio’s Channel and Sub- Code settings will be transmitted, which will be received and copied by all the other “Members’ radios”.
  • The “Leader’s radio” must make this transmission when all the “Members’ radios” are still in the Easy Pairing mode, otherwise the transmission will not be picked up.
  • On the “Leader’s radio”, user must remember not to release the button on the first (single) beep, otherwise this radio will become another “Member’s radio”. If that happens, you can press PTT to escape, and retry the steps described in Step 3.
  • When the “Leader’s radio” does not have sub-code feature, all “Members’ radios” will have their sub-code set to zero (Disable). When a radio sub-code is set to zero, all transmissions received on the channel will be sent to the speaker, regardless of the sub-code embedded in the transmission.
  • Your radio does not have sub-code feature and is not compatible with radios with sub-code enabled. Please ensure all radios in the group have their sub-code disabled (Sub-code is set to Zero). With Easy pairing, either use your radio as the leader, or ask the Leader to set sub-code to zero before performing easy pairing.

 

Channels and Frequencies

Note: The power refers to the maximum allowable power defined by FCC/ISED for each channel under FRS rules for USA and FRS/GMRS for Canada, and is not a reflection of the power specification of the radio.
