Precautions
Before you use this scanner, please read and observe the following.
This scanning radio has been manufactured so that it will not tune to the radio frequencies
assigned by the FCC for cellular telephone usage. The Electronic Communications Privacy
Act of 1986, as amended, makes it a federal crime to intentionally intercept cellular or
cordless telephone transmissions or to market this radio when altered to receive them. The
installation, possession, or use of this scanning radio in a motor vehicle may be prohibited,
regulated, or require a permit in certain states, cities, and/or local jurisdictions. Your local law
enforcement officials should be able to provide you with information regarding the laws in
your community.
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by Uniden, or operation of
this product in any way other than as detailed by this Operating Guide, could void your
authority to operate this product.
Be sure to use only a monaural earphone or 32 Ω stereo headset. Use of an incorrect
earphone or stereo headset might be potentially hazardous to your hearing. The output of
the phone jack is monaural, but you will hear it in both headphones of a stereo headset.
Set the volume to a comfortable audio level coming from the speaker before plugging in the
monaural earphone or a stereo headset of the proper impedance (32 Ω). Otherwise, you
might experience some discomfort or possible hearing damage if the volume suddenly
becomes too loud because of the volume control or squelch control setting. This might be
particularly true of the type of earphone that is placed in the ear canal.
