Setting Up the Hardware Attaching the antenna The antenna detaches from the radio for easy shipping or storage. To attach the antenna to your radio, screw it tightly onto the anchor post at the top of the radio. Installing the battery Your MHS450 comes with a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery. For shipping safety, the battery is not installed at the factory; the empty alkaline battery case is installed as a placeholder. Note: Charge the battery fully before using the radio. 1. Unlock the latch at the base of the radio and remove the 2 alkaline battery case. 2. Insert the hooks on the battery into the notches on the top of the battery compartment. 1 Rubber seal Note: Each time you remove the battery, check the rubber seal around the battery compartment. Make sure the seal is seated in the groove and there is no dirt or debris on it. If the seal looks worn or damaged, contact customer service to order a replacement (see back cover page for contact information). Uniden MHS450 Radio Owner's Manual 15
