The Basics
Use extreme caution when installing or removing an
outdoor antenna. If the antenna starts to fall, let it go!
It could contact overhead power lines. If the antenna
touches a power line, touching the antenna, mast, cable,
or guy wires can cause electrocution and death. Call the
power company to remove the antenna. Do not attempt
to do so yourself.
connect an external speaker or headphones
When you mount your scanner in your dashboard, you will
need to connect an external speaker or headphones.
listening safely
To protect your hearing, follow these guidelines when you use
headphones.
Adjust VOL (volume) to its lowest level before putting on
headphones. With the headphones on, adjust VOL to a
comfortable level.
Avoid increasing the volume once you set it. Over time, your
sensitivity to volume decreases, so volume levels that do not
cause discomfort might damage your hearing.
Avoid listening at high volume levels. Prolonged exposure to
high volume levels can cause permanent hearing loss.
traffi c safety
Do not wear headphones while driving. This can create a traffi c
hazard and is illegal in some areas. Even though some headphones
let you hear outside sounds when you listen at normal levels, they
still can present a traffi c hazard.
