Resetting the Scanner
If the scanner's display locks up or stops operating properly,
you might need to reset the scanner.
Caution: This procedure clears all the information you have
stored in the scanner. Before you reset the scanner, try
turning it off and on to see if it begins working properly. Reset
the scanner only when you are sure it is not working properly.
After a reset, only the band plan informations and the
preprogrammed search bands are still memorized in the
scanner!
To reset the scanner:
• Turn of the scanner.
• While holding down 2, 9, and Hold, turn on the
scanner. It takes about 3 seconds to initialize and
CLEAr appears.

damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.
General Use
