Getting Started
Battery life
Your radio has a built in power saver to make the batteries last
longer. But when you are not using the units, turn them OFF to
conserve battery power.
For in vehicle charging the accessory kit SM5100 contains 2 car
chargers and 2 shoulder speaker mics. These can be purchased
from your re-seller or online at www.oricom.com.au
Transmitting range
The talk range depends on the environment and terrain. The
radio can reach (up to about 7km) in wide open spaces, without
obstructions such as hills or buildings. Don’t try to use two radio
units which are less than 1.5m (5 feet) apart. Otherwise, you may
experience interference.
Talk range depends on the terrain. It will be affected by concrete
structures, heavy foliage and by operating radios indoors or in
vehicles.
