If activated by your dealer, the Battery Saver function will
decrease the amount of power used when a signal is not
being received and no operations are being performed (no
keys are being pressed, and no switches are being turned).
While the channel is not busy and no operation is performed for
5 seconds, Battery Saver turns ON. 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.

(DQT)
Your dealer may have programmed QT or DQT signalling on
your transceiver channels. A QT tone/DQT code is a sub-
audible tone/code which allows you to ignore (not hear) calls
from other parties who are using the same channel.
When a channel is set up with a QT tone or DQT code,
squelch will only open when a call containing a matching tone
or code is received. Likewise, signals that you transmit will
only be heard by parties whose QT/DQT signalling matches
your transceiver.
If a call containing a different tone or code is made on the same
channel you are using, squelch will not open and you will not
hear the call. This allows you to ignore (not hear) these calls.
Although it may seem like you have your own private channel
while using QT/DQT, other parties can still hear your calls if
they set up their transceiver with the same tone or code.
