PRECAUTIONS

Before you use this scanner, please read and observe the

following.

IMPORTANT

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 ocials should be able to provide you

with information regarding the laws in your community.

Changes or modications 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.

EARPHONE WARNING!

Be sure to use only a monaural earphone with this scanner.

You can also use an optional stereo headset. Use of an

incorrect earphone or mono 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

headset. 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.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW

WARNING! Uniden does not represent this unit to be

waterproof. To reduce the risk of re or electrical

shock, do not expose this unit to rain or moisture.

Uniden® and Close Call® are registered trademarks of Uniden

America Corporation. Other trademarks used throughout

this manual are the property of their respective holders.

This scanner has been tested and found to comply with

the limits for a scanning receiver, pursuant to Part 15 of the

FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable

protection against harmful interference in a residential

installation. This scanner generates, uses, and can radiate

radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in

accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not

occur in a particular installation. If this scanner does cause

harmful interference to radio or television reception, which

can be determined by turning the scanner on and o, you

are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or

more of the following methods:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

• Increase the separation between the scanner and the

receiver

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation

is subject to the following two conditions: 1) This device

may not cause harmful interference, and 2) this device must

accept any interference received, including interference that

may cause undesired operation.

SCANNING LEGALLY

Your scanner covers frequencies used by many dierent

groups, including police and re departments, ambulance

services, government agencies, private companies, amateur

radio services, military operations, pager services, and

wireline (telephone and telegraph) service providers. It is

legal to listen to almost every transmission your scanner

can receive. However, there are some transmissions that you

should never intentionally listen to. These include:

• Telephone conversations (cellular, cordless, or other

private means of telephone signal transmission)

• Pager transmissions

• Any scrambled or encrypted transmissions

According to the Electronic Communications Privacy Act

(ECPA), you are subject to nes and possible imprisonment

for intentionally listening to, using, or divulging the contents

of such a conversation unless you have the consent of a

party to the conversation (unless such activity is otherwise

illegal). This scanner has been designed to prevent the

reception of cellular telephone transmissions and the

decoding of scrambled transmissions. This is done to comply

with the legal requirement that scanners be manufactured

so they are not easy to modify to pick up these transmissions.

Do not open your scanner’s case to make any modications

that could allow it to pick up transmissions that are illegal to

monitor. Modifying or tampering with your scanner’s internal

components or using it in a way other than as described in

this manual could invalidate your warranty and void your FCC

authorization to operate it.

In some areas, mobile use of this scanner is unlawful or

requires a permit. Check the laws in your area. It is also illegal

in many areas (and a bad idea everywhere) to interfere with

the duties of public safety ocials by traveling to the scene

of an incident without authorization.

paramedics)

• NOAA weather transmissions
