button until the VOX icon appears on the display.

ton for 3 seconds; the VOX icon disappears.
Channel Scan Operation
This feature allows you to monitor all channels automatically
for valid signals. While scanning, you can transmit and receive.
When a signal is received, the scan is interrupted and will return
to scan mode 5 seconds after reception is terminated.
NOTE: While the scan function is active, the MODE button will
be inoperative. In addition, the scan mode will shorten overall
battery life because the battery save function is overridden.
To enable the channel scan mode:
- From GMRS/FRS standby mode, momentarily press the SCAN Button; ( )
will appear on the LCD display.
- The radio will display each channel (1-22) in order as the scan mode oper-
ates to find an active main channel.
- When unit doesn’t find any signals and you want to transmit, press the PTT
button to return to home channel operation. The transceiver will automati-
cally resume scanning approximately 10 seconds after the communication
is completed.
- If there is no activity and you want to leave the scan mode, press the power
button momentarily and the unit will return to normal operation; ( ) icon
will disappear from the LCD display.
