Helpful Hints
General Use
Turn the scanner off before disconnecting the power.
Always write down the programmed frequencies in the event of scanner memory loss.
If scanner memory is lost, simply reprogram each channel. The display shows
when there has been a memory loss.
Always press each keypad button firmly until you hear the entry tone for that key.
Location
If your scanner receives strong interference or electrical noise, relocate the scanner or its
antenna away from the source of the noise. A higher elevation may provide better
reception. Also, try changing the height or angle of the antenna.
Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or near heating elements or vents.
Do not plug the scanner into an outlet controlled by a wall switch as prolonged periods
without power will cause the clock to reset.
Cleaning
Disconnect the power to the unit before cleaning.
To prevent scratches, do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Be careful not to rub the
display window.
Do not use excessive amounts of water.
Repairs
Do not attempt any repair. The scanner contains no serviceable parts. Contact the
Uniden Customer Service Center or take it to a qualified repair
technician. (Page 37)
Birdies
All radios are subject to receiving undesired signals or birdies. If your scanner stops
during Scan mode and no sound is heard, it may be receiving a birdie. Birdies are
internally-generated signals inherent in the electronics of the receiver. Press SCAN to
resume scanning.
If you still cannot get satisfactory results and want additional information, or to return the
unit for service, please call the Uniden Customers Service Department at the number on
Page 37.
