transmission will stop and an alert tone will sound. To stop the
tone, release the PTT switch.

When activated by your dealer, the Battery Saver function
decreases the amount of power used after no signal is present and
no operations are being performed for 5 seconds. When a signal is
received or an operation is performed, Battery Saver turns off.
Note: While the Battery Saver is operating, the LED may flash green
when receiving a QT/DQT signal which does not match the QT/DQT
tone/code set up in your transceiver.
LOw BATTERy wARNING
While operating the transceiver, the Low Battery Warning
sounds an alert tone every 30 seconds and the LED indicator
blinks red when the battery needs recharged or replaced.

When activated, BCL prevents you from interfering on a channel
that is already in use. Pressing the PTT switch will cause an
alert tone to sound and the transceiver will not transmit. Release
the PTT switch to stop the tone.
Note: Ask your dealer for an explanation on how BCL functions
when using QT or DQT signaling.
PROCEED TONE
If enabled by your dealer, when transmitting by pressing the
PTT switch, the Proceed tone will sound.
