    							 Batteries 
    The Ni-Cad battery ships uncharged, it must
    be fully charged for 16 hours before use (first
    charge only). It is recommended that only
    Motorola batteries and chargers be used with
    the radio.
    The Ni-Cad rechargeable battery pack will
    provide approximately 8 hours of operation
    with normal use (5% sending messages, 5%
    receiving messages and 90% in standby
    mode). 
    Low Battery Alert 
    When the battery is low, the radio will beep: 
    • 3 to 4 seconds after turning power on
    • Every 10 minutes in standby mode
    • After release of the Push-To-Talk button 
    Recharge the battery pack immediately to
    avoid interrupted use. 
    Note: 
     Remove battery pack before storing
    your radio for extended periods. Batteries
    may corrode over time if left in radio and can
    cause permanent damage to your radio.  To Install/Remove Ni-Cad

    age the battery. Installing Alkaline Batteries 
    For DPS Model 
    Your TalkAbout Distance DPS radio has the
    option of operating with either a Ni-Cad bat-
    tery pack or 6 AA alkaline batteries. Alkaline
    batteries will last about 25 hours with normal
    use. That’s approximately 5% sending mes-
    sages, 5% receiving and 90% in standby
    mode.

    8 Before You Can Talk 
    Read this manual carefully, make sure you
    know how to properly operate the radio
    before use.
    TalkAbout Distance radios have 10 channels
    and 38 Interference Eliminator Codes. To talk
    to others, all radios in your group must be set
    to the same channel and code (see charts on
    back cover). 
    Interference Eliminator Codes 
    Codes filter out static, noise and unwanted
    chatter on radio channels. When you operate
    on a channel with a code set, you block out
    most interference on that channel. This allows
    you to communicate with less interference
    than when operating without a code. Remem-
    ber, since radio channels can be monitored,
    codes will not make your conversations private. 
    •  For compatibility with radios that do not
    have codes, the radio can be set to Code
    “Off” in the programming mode.  
    Bandwidth 
    In the USA, the FCC has declared that all
    Family Radio Service frequencies must oper-
    ate on 12.5 kHz bandwidth.   Your Talkabout 
    Distance radio ships pre-set on 25.0 kHz, but
    can be set to 12.5 kHz while in the program-
    ming mode. Handicom/Sport 10X radios
    operate on 25.0 kHz as well. All other Talk-
    about and Sport 7/7X radios operate on 12.5
    kHz bandwidth. For optimal audio quality, all
    radios in your talk group should be set to the
    same band.

    IMPORTANT 
    To talk to others in your group all radios
    must be set to the same channel and code. Compatibility 
    Channels 1-7 on your TalkAbout Distance are
    compatible with TalkAbout/TalkAbout Plus,
    Sport 7/7X and 10X radios. Channels A and B
    are compatible with SportBASE and Sport
    10X radios. The emergency channel (C) is to
    be used only for the purpose of soliciting or
    rendering assistance to a traveller, or for
    communicating in an emergency pertaining
    to the immediate safety of life or the immedi-
    ate protection of property. The emergency
    channel is used by certain organizations dur-
    ing emergency situations and is not neces-
    sarily monitored. See back cover for chart of
    channels and codes. 
    FIG. L 
    						
    							 Turn the Radio On/Off

    when you press the Push-To-Talk button 
    Built-In VOX  
    The VOX (Voice Activated Transmission) fea-
    ture allows hands-free operation of your
    radio. The sound of your voice activates
    transmission when the radio is used with a
    Headset With Swivel Boom Mic or Earbud
    With Inline Mic (models 50226/50256, sold
    separately).  
    To Use VOX Feature 
    1.  
    Turn the radio off. 
    2.  
    Open Accessory Jack Cover and plug 
    accessory’s connector firmly into jack.  
    3.  
    Turn radio on and lower volume before 
    placing accessory on head or in ear. 
    Press Monitor button while rotating     
    Volume knob to adjust volume to a com-
    fortable listening level. 
    4.  
    To transmit, speak into accessory micro-
    phone. To receive, stop talking. 
    There will be a one second delay
    between when you start or stop talking
    and radio transmission.  
    Exit VOX Feature 
    1.  
    Press Push-To-Talk button once.  
    2.  
    To transmit, press Push-To-Talk button. 
    3.  
    To receive messages, release Push-To-Talk 
    button. 
    4.  
    To return to VOX mode, turn the radio off, 
    then on again. 
    Note:  
    The Accessory Jack Cover is not
    detachable and should be closed when not
    in use. Scan  
    Scan allows you to monitor the radio’s
    channels and code. When the radio detects
    someone talking, it stops scanning and
    locks in on the active channel. It allows you
    to listen and talk back automatically to the
    person transmitting without having to
    switch channels. 
    Note:  
    To communicate in scan, your radio
    must be set to the same code as the other
    radio(s) in your group.   If your radio is set to
    a different code, the scan feature will not
    detect channel activity in your group. 
    To Use Scan Feature 
    1.  
    Move the Channel Selector knob to the 
    “s” position (Fig. N). The radio will scan 
    the radio’s channels and code in 
    sequential order. 
    2.  
    When the radio detects someone talking, 
    you will hear the message. 
    3.  
    Press Push-To-Talk button to talk back on 
    the channel.    If channel activity ceases, 
    the radio will return to scan mode after  
    three seconds. 
    4.  
    In scan, you will always transmit back 
    to the channel which last sent a mes-
    sage.  
    Notes:  
    • In scan, after you receive a message, the 
    radio will remain on that channel for three 
    seconds before returning to scan mode.

    ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE/
    COMPATIBILITY 
    Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to
    electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inade-
    quately shielded, designed or otherwise config-
    ured for electromagnetic compatibility. 
    • To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or
    compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio in
    any facility where posted notices instruct you
    to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may
    be using equipment that is sensitive to exter-
    nal RF energy.
    • When instructed to do so, turn off your radio
    when on board an aircraft. Any use of a radio
    must be in accordance with airline regulations
    or crew instructions. 
    EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY ENERGY 
    Your Motorola two-way radio, which generates and
    radiates radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic
    energy (EME), is designed to comply with the
    following national and international standards and
    guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to
    radio frequency electromagnetic energy:
    • FCC Report and Order FCC 96-326 (August, 
    1996)
    • American National Standards Institute (C95-1 - 
    1992)
    • National Council on Radiation Protection and 
    Measurements (NCRP - 1986)
    • International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radi-
    ation Protection (ICNRP - 1986)
    • European Committee for Electrotechnical       
    Standardization (CENELEC)  
        - Env. 50166 - 1 1995E - Human Exposure to
    Electromagnetic Fields Low Frequency (0Hz to
    10kHz)
       - Env. 50166 - 2 1995E - Human Exposure to
    Electromagnetic Fields High Frequency
    (10kHz to 300Ghz)
        - Proceeding of SC211/8 1996 - Safety Consid-
    erations for Human Exposure to E.M.F’s from
    Mobile Telecommunications Equipment
    (M.T.E.) in the Frequency Range 30MHz -
    6GHz (E.M.F.-Electromagnetic Fields)
    To assure optimal radio performance and that
    human exposure to radio frequency electromag-
    netic energy is within the guidelines set forth in the
    above standards, always adhere to the following
    procedures: 
    FOR PORTABLE TWO-WAY RADIOS 
    • When transmitting with a portable radio, hold
    radio in a vertical position with its microphone 1
    to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.0 cm) away from your
    mouth. Keep antenna at least 1 inch (2.5 cm)
    from your head and body. 
    • If you wear a portable radio on your body,
    ensure that the antenna is at least one inch(2.5
    cm) from your body when transmitting. 
    ! 
    WARNING 
    For Vehicles With an Air Bag 
    Do not place a portable radio in the area over an air
    bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags
    inflate with great force. If a portable radio is placed
    in the air bag deployment area and the air bag
    inflates, the radio may be propelled with great
    force and cause serious injury to occupants of vehi-
    cle.  
    Potentially Explosive Atmospheres 
    Turn your radio OFF when in any area with a poten-
    tially explosive atmosphere, unless it is a type
    especially qualified for such use (for example, Fac-
    tory Mutual Approved). Sparks in such areas could
    cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury
    or even death. 
    Batteries 
    Do not replace or charge batteries in a potentially
    explosive atmosphere. Contact sparking may occur
    while installing or removing batteries and cause an
    explosion. 
    Blasting Caps and Areas 
    To avoid possible interference with blasting opera-
    tions, turn your radio OFF near electrical blasting
    caps or in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn
    off two-way radio”. Obey all signs and instructions. 
    Note 
    : 
     Areas with potentially explosive atmo-
    spheres are often, but not always, clearly marked.
    They include fuelling areas such as below deck on
    boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facili-
    ties; areas where the air contains chemicals or par-
    ticles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and
    any other area where you would normally be
    advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

    ! 
    CAUTION 
    Damaged Antennas 
    Do not use any radio that has a damaged antenna.
    If a damaged antenna comes in contact with the
    skin, a minor burn may result. 
    Batteries 
    All batteries can cause property damage and/or
    bodily injury such as burns if a conductive material
    such as jewelry, keys or beaded chains touches
    exposed terminals. The material may complete an
    electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite
    hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery,
    particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse or
    other container with metal objects.
