PRECAUTIONS
Before you use this scanner, please read and observe the following.
IMPORTANT!
This scanning radio has been manufactured so that it will not tune to the radio
frequencies assigned by the FCC for cellular telephone usage. The Electronic
Communications Privacy Act of 1986, as amended, makes it a federal crime to
intentionally intercept cellular or cordless telephone transmissions or to market
this radio when altered to receive them. The installation, possession, or use of
this scanning radio in a motor vehicle may be prohibited, regulated, or require
a permit in certain states, cities, and/or local jurisdictions. Your local law
enforcement officials should be able to provide you with information regarding
the laws in your community.
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by Uniden,
or operation of this product in any way other than as detailed by this Operating
Guide, could void your authority to operate this product.
EARPHONE WARNING!
You can use an optional 32Ω stereo headset or earphone with this scanner.
Use of an incorrect earphone or stereo headset might be potentially
hazardous to your hearing. The output of the phone jack is monaural, but you
will hear it in both headphones of a stereo headset.
Set the speaker volume to a comfortable level before plugging in either a
monaural earphone or a stereo headset of the proper impedance (32Ω).
Otherwise, you might experience some discomfort or possible hearing
damage if the volume suddenly becomes too loud because of the volume
control or squelch control setting. This is particularly true for the type of
earphone that is placed in the ear canal.
WARNING: Uniden does not represent this unit to be waterproof. To
reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose this unit to
rain or moisture.

Important: If you use the supplied AC adapter to power the scanner but
have not installed batteries in the scanner, never turn the scanner off by
disconnecting the AC adapter or unplugging it from the AC outlet. This might
corrupt the scanner’s memory. Always use POWER to turn the scanner off
before disconnecting AC power.
