Maintenance and Troubleshooting Due to its rugged design, your radio requires very little maintenance. However, it is a precision electronic instrument, so you should follow a few precautions: ŠŠ If the antenna has been damaged, do not transmit except in an emergency situation. Transmitting with a defective antenna may cause further radio damage. ŠŠ You are responsible for continued FCC technical compliance of your radio. Common Questions Problem The radio won't turn on.

Things to Try Charge the radio. - Don't use the charger when the ambient temperature is below 0° C (32° F) or above 45° C (113° F). - Make sure the charging contacts on the radio and charger are clean. - Replace the battery. Make sure you are not in Weather or Scan mode.
