Turning the radio on and off

Give a long press of the on/off key to turn the radio either on
or off.

When the radio is first turned on, the red, green and amber
LEDs flash briefly and the radio gives two short beeps.

Unlocking your radio

You may need to enter a personal identification number (PIN)
before you can use your radio. If the display shows either
or — — after power-up, enter your assigned PIN.

Once you have entered your PIN correctly, the radio sounds
two short beeps and normal operation is now possible.

If you do not know your PIN or if your radio gives a long, low-
pitched beep, consult your radio provider or administrator.
