RECYCLING / DISPOSAL OF BATTERIES
The battery should be recycled at the end of its useful life.
Under various local laws, Ni-MH and Ni-Cd batteries must be
recycled or disposed of properly and cannot be discarded in
landfills or incinerators.
For further information on how to safely dispose of your used
batteries, contact your dealer.
SL55+ OPERATION
POWER ON / VOLUME / POWER OFF
Turn the radio on by rotating the off/on/volume control
clockwise.
You will hear a click and (if enabled via dealer programming),
the radio’s self-test alert tones. Increase the radio volume by
continuing the clockwise rotation.
To turn the radio off, rotate the control anti-clockwise until a
click is heard.
CHANNEL SELECT / CHANNEL SCAN
To change radio channels, simply rotate the Channel Knob
until the desired channel is reached.
If your radio has been programmed for scanning, you must
rotate the knob to the channel that has been programmed to
begin scanning.

The monitor button is located on the side of the SL55+ below
the PTT button. Your radio may be set-up to either allow or
dis-allow monitoring of a channel. Press and hold the
monitor button to listen to the channel.
When on, the radio will continue to receive even if the signal
is very low. This may assist clarity if the audio “chops on
and off” while receiving.
TRANSMIT
Check the colour of the radio’s top-panel LED. It will
illuminate orange if RF activity is present; it will not be
illuminated if the radio indicates a “clear” channel. See page
11.
When the channel is “clear”, hold the radio microphone area
