Traffic Safety
• Do not use an earphone/headphones with your scanner
when operating a motor vehicle or riding a bicycle in or near
traffic. Doing so can create a traffic hazard and could be ille-
gal in some areas.
• If you use an earphone/headphones with your scanner while
riding a bicycle, be very careful. Do not listen to a continu-
ous transmission. Even though some earphones/head-
phones let you hear some outside sounds when listening at
normal volume levels, they still can present a traffic hazard.
CONNECTING AN EXTENSION SPEAKER
In a noisy area, an amplified extension speaker (available at
your local RadioShack store) positioned in the right place, might
provide more comfortable listening.
Plug the speaker cable’s 1 / 8
-inch (3.5-mm) plug into your scan-
ner’s jack.
Note: Connecting an external speaker disconnects the scan-
ner’s internal speaker.
