Setting Up the Hardware

Attaching the antenna

The antenna detaches from the radio

for easy shipping or storage. To attach the

antenna to your radio, screw it tightly onto

the anchor post at the top of the radio.

Installing the battery

Your MHS450 comes with a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery.

For shipping safety, the battery is not installed at the factory;

the empty alkaline battery case is installed as a placeholder.

Note: Charge the battery fully before using the radio.

Unlock the latch at the base

of the radio and remove the

alkaline battery case.
Insert the hooks on the

battery into the notches on

the top of the battery

compartment.

Note: Each time you remove the battery, check the

rubber seal around the battery compartment. Make

sure the seal is seated in the groove and there is no

dirt or debris on it. If the seal looks worn or damaged,

contact customer service to order a replacement (see

back cover page for contact information).
