and the air bag inflates, the communicator may be propelled with great force and cause

serious injury to the occupants of the vehicle.

• Keep the radio at least 15 centimetres away from a pacemaker.

• Turn your radio OFF as soon as interference is taking place with medical equipment.

• Do not replace batteries in a potentially explosive atmosphere. Contact sparking may

occur while installing or removing batteries and cause an explosion.

• Turn your communicator off when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere.

Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even

death.

• Never throw batteries in fire as they may explode.

unit must be in accordance with airline regulations or crew instructions.

• Turn your unit OFF in any facilities where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals

or health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.

• Replacing or modifying the antenna may affect the PMR radio specifications and violate

the CE regulations. Unauthorised antennas could also damage the radio.

4.6 Notes

• Do not touch the antenna while transmitting, it could affect the range.

• Remove the battery if the device is not going to be used for a long period.

Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but not

always, clearly marked. They include fuelling areas such as

facilities; areas where the air contains chemicals or particles,

such as grain, dust or metal powders; and any other area where

7 Using a PMR device

To communicate between PMR devices they need to be set all on the same channel and

within receiving range (up to max. 6 km in open field). Since these devices use free frequency

bands (channels), all devices in operation share these channels(total 8 channels). Therefore,

privacy is not garanteed. Anybody with a PMR set to your channel can overhear the

conversation. If you want to communicate (transmitting a voice signal) you need to press the

-button.

Once this button pressed, the device will go into transmit mode and you can speak into the

microphone. All other PMR devices in range , on the same channel and in standby mode (not

transmitting) will hear your message. You need to wait until the other party stops transmitting

before you can reply to the message. At the end of each transmission the unit will send a

beep. To reply, just press the -button and speak into the microphone.

PTT

If 2 or more users press the - button at the same time the

receiver will receive only the stongest signal and the other signal

(s) will be supressed. Therefore you should only transmit a

signal (press - button) when the channel is free.
