BATTERY SAVER MODE

Your FR-541 has a unique circuit designed to dramatically extend the life of its
batteries. After 5 seconds of inactivity, the FR-541 will switch to battery saver
mode. While in battery saver mode, the battery saver mode indicator ( ) is
present on the display, and the transceiver will remain ready to receive any in-
coming transmissions while the battery saver mode is active. Pressing any of
the buttons, except the up, down, Function (F) or VOX button will exit the battery
saver mode.
