FCC INFORMATION

Important:

Do not open your radio to make any inter-

nal adjustments. Your radio is set up to transmit a reg-
ulated signal on an assigned frequency. It is against
the law to alter or adjust the settings inside the radio
to exceed those limitations. Any adjustments to your
radio must be made by a qualified technician using
the proper test equipment. To be safe and sure:

• Never open your radio’s case.
• Never change or replace anything in your radio

except the batteries.

Your radio might cause TV or radio interference even
when it is operating properly. To determine whether
your radio is causing the interference, turn it off. If the
interference goes away, your radio is causing it. Try to
eliminate the interference by:

• moving your radio away from the receiver
• calling your local RadioShack store for help

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC re-
quires that you stop using the radio.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) this device must accept any interference re-
ceived, including interference that may cause undes-
ired operation.

CARING FOR YOUR RADIO

To enjoy your radio for a long time:

• Handle it gently.
• Keep it away from dust, moisture, and tempera-

ture extremes.

• Clean it with a damp cloth. Do not use harsh

chemicals.

Modifying or tampering with the radio’s internal com-
ponents can cause a malfunction and might invalidate
the radio’s warranty and void your FCC authorization
to operate it. If your radio is not performing as it
should, take it to your local RadioShack store for as-
sistance.

Your RadioShack Two-Way Family Radio is a
lightweight, palm-sized radio that you can carry
almost anywhere. Use it at shopping malls,
amusement parks, or sports events to contact
family and friends, or in a neighborhood watch
for vital communications.

Your radio has 14 channels and 38 different qui-
et codes. If someone else is using the channel
you selected and you do not want to hear that
person, select another channel or use the quiet
feature (see “Using the Quiet Feature” on Page
6). You can talk with other FRS radio users
whose radios are tuned to the same channel
and quiet code as yours.

Your radio has

auto-squelch

, which means you

will not hear anything on a channel unless
someone is transmitting nearby on the same
channel. You can turn off auto-squelch to hear
weaker, distant transmissions (see Pages 4 and
5).

Also, the radio has a channel and quiet code
lock pin in the battery compartment. (See illus-
tration on facing page.) Removing the pin locks
the channel and quiet code settings to avoid ac-
cidentally changing the settings.

The supplied hand strap and belt clip let you
carry your radio almost anywhere.

We recommend you record your radio’s serial
number here. The number is on the radio’s back
panel.
