MaintenanCe & troubleshooting

Due to its rugged design, your radio requires very little

maintenance. However, it is a precision electronic instrument, so

you should follow a few precautions:

x If the antenna has been damaged, do not transmit except in an

emergency situation. Transmitting with a defective antenna may

cause further radio damage.

x You are responsible for continued FCC technical compliance of

your radio.

x You should arrange for periodic performance checks with your

Uniden dealer.
