CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Keep the scanner dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Use and
store the scanner only in normal temperature environments. Handle the
scanner carefully: do not drop it. Keep the scanner away from dust and
dirt, and wipe it with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.
GENERAL USE

LOCATION
Do not use the scanner in high-moisture environments such
•
as the kitchen or bathroom.
Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or near heating elements
•
or vents.
If the scanner receives strong interference or electrical noise,
•
move it or its antenna away from the source of the noise. If
possible, a higher elevation might provide better reception.
Also try changing the height or angle of the antenna.
•
CLEANING
Clean the outside of the scanner with a mild detergent.
•
To prevent scratches, do not use abrasive cleaners or
•
solvents. Be careful not to rub the LCD window.
Do not use excessive amounts of water.

BIRDIES
All radios can receive "birdies" (undesired signals). If your scanner stops
during Scan mode and no sound is heard, it might be receiving a birdie.
Birdies are internally generated signals inherent in the electronics of the
receiver.
