RESETTING/INITIALIZING THE SCANNER

If the scanner's display locks up or does not work properly after you
install new batteries or after you connect an external power source, you
might have to reset the scanner.

To reset the scanner:

1.  Turn on the scanner.

2.  Press the reset switch at right of the PWR jack using a pointed
    object, such as a straightened paper clip.  If this is not effective,
    initialize the scanner as directed below.

Caution:  Use this procedure only when you are sure the scanner is not
          working properly.  This procedure clears all information you
          have programmed into the scanner.

To initialize the scanner:

1.  Turn on the scanner.

2.  Press and hold CLEAR and then press the reset switch at the right of
    the PWR jack using a pointed object, such as a straightened paper
    clip.  Release CLEAR after the display reappears.

CONNECTING THE ANTENNA

Follow these steps to attach the flexible antenna to the ANT (antenna)
jack on the top of the scanner.

1.  Slip the slot in the antenna's connector over the protrusions on the
    jack.

2.  Press down and rotate the base of the antenna until the antenna locks
    into place.

Connecting an Optional Antenna

The antenna jack on your scanner makes it easy to use your scanner with a
variety of antennas.  You can remove the supplied antenna and attach a
different one, such as external mobile antenna, telescoping antenna, or
outdoor base antenna.

Use coaxial cable to connect an outdoor antenna.  Always use 52-ohm
coaxial cable, such as RG-58 or RG-8.  For lengths over 50 feet, use RG-8
low-loss coaxial cable.  Radio Shack stores sell the antenna connector
adapters that let you use these antennas.
