Birdies

Turn the scanner off before disconnecting the power.

If memory is lost, simply reprogram each channel.

Always press each button firmly until you hear the entry tone for that key entry.

Do not use the scanner in high-moisture environments such as the kitchen or

bathroom.

Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or near heating elements or vents.

If the scanner receives strong interference or electrical noise, move it or its antenna

away from the source of the noise. If possible, a higher elevation might provide

better reception.

Also try changing the height or angle of the antenna.

Disconnect the power to the unit before cleaning.

Clean the outside of the scanner with a mild detergent.

To prevent scratches, do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Be careful not to rub

the LCD window.

Do not use excessive amounts of water.

Do not attempt any repair. The scanner contains no user serviceable parts. Contact

the Uniden Customer Service Center or take it to a qualified repair technician.

All radios can receive “birdies” (undesired signals). If your scanner stops during

Scan mode and no sound is heard, it might be receiving a birdie. Birdies are

internally generated signals inherent in the electronics of the scanner.

Press

to lock out the channel.
