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 with this
scanner. You can also use an optional 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.
