FEATURES
-3-
-4-
Your transceiver will achieve its maximum operating range when communicating
with other transceivers in a flat open area with no trees or buildings obstructing
its signal. Range may be up to two miles under such conditions. Obstacles
such as buildings, trees or mountains will tend to reduce the transceiver’s
effective range.
FCC WARNING
Replacement or substitution of transistors, diodes or other parts of a unique
nature, with parts other than those recommended by the manufacturer, may
cause a violation of the technical regulations of Part 15 of FCC Rules.
SAFETY INFORMATION
Your wireless handheld portable transceiver contains a low power transmitter.
When the PTT button is pushed it sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
The device is authorized to operate at a duty factor not to exceed 50%. In
August 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF
exposure guidelines with safety levels for hand-held wireless devices.
Important: To maintain compliance with the FCC’ s RF exposure guidelines
hold the transmitter at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) from your
face and speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up and
away. If you wear the handset on your body while using the headset
accessory, use only the Audiovox supplied belt clip for this product
and ensure that the antenna is at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters)
from your body when transmitting. Use only the supplied antenna.
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the transmitter and may violate FCC regulations.
Normal Position: Hold the transmitter approximately 1” from your face and
speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up and away.

BATTERY INSTALLATION
BATTERY SAVER MODE
Your FR-540 has a unique circuit designed to dramatically extend
the life of its batteries. After 10 seconds of inactivity, the FR-540 will
switch to battery saver mode. While in battery saver mode, the battery
saver mode indicator (
) is present on the display, and the trans-
ceiver will remain ready to receive any incoming transmissions while
the battery saver mode is active. Pressing any of the buttons, except
the up, down or power buttons, will exit the battery saver mode and
illuminate the display.
CAUTION:
Your FR-540 requires three “AAA” alkaline cells or
three rechargeable “AAA” cells. Alkaline batteries
will provide the best performance from your transceiver.
Remove the battery cover by rotating the belt clip
away from the battery compartment. Slide the
battery cover downward while applying pressure at the
its grooved section. Observe the polarity symbols
inside the battery tray when installing the batteries.
Incorrect battery installation can damage the unit.
The microphone / charger jack is intended for use with Audiovox
approved charging accessories only. Refer to the documentation
included with the battery charger.
Never attempt to charge alkaline batteries with the optional battery
charger.

Vous bénéficierez de la couverture maximale de votre émetteur-récepteur lors de
communications en terrain plat, sans arbres ni bâtiments pour bloquer le signal.
Dans de telles conditions, la couverture peut atteindre jusqu'à trois kilomètres
(deux miles). Les obstacles, tels que bâtiments, arbres ou montagnes tendent à
réduire la couverture effective de l'émetteur-récepteur.
AVERTISSEMENT DE LA FCC
Changer ou substituer des transistors, des diodes ou d'autres pièces
spécifiques par des pièces autres que celles recommandées par le fabricant
peut constituer une violation de la réglementation technique de la section 15 du
Règlement de la FCC.
INFORMATIONS RELATIVES À LA SÉCURITÉ
Votre émetteur-récepteur portatif mobile qui tient dans la main contient un émetteur
de faible puissance. Lorsque l'on appuie sur le poussoir d'émission, l'émetteur
envoie des signaux de fréquence radioélectrique (RF). Le facteur d'utilisation
autorisé pour l'appareil ne doit pas dépasser 50 %. En août 1996, la Federal
Communications Commission américaine (FCC) a adopté certaines normes
concernant les niveaux d'exposition sans danger aux RF pour les appareils
mobiles qui tiennent dans la main.
Important : Afin d'observer les normes de la FCC relatives à l'exposition aux RF,
tenez l'émetteur à un minimum de 2,5 centimètres (1 pouce) de votre
visage et parlez d'une voix normale, l'antenne étant dirigée vers le
haut et vers l'extérieur. Si vous portez le combiné sur vous lorsque
vous utilisez le casque d'écoute mains libres, employez uniquement
la pince de ceinture fournie par Audiovox avec l'appareil et assurez-
vous que l'antenne se trouve à un minimum de 2,5 centimètres
(1 pouce) de votre corps lorsque vous émettez. Utilisez uniquement
l'antenne fournie. Les antennes, modifications ou accessoires non
autorisés sont susceptibles d'endommager l'émetteur et d'enfreindre
le règlement de la FCC.
Position normale : Tenez l'émetteur à 2,5 cm (1 pouce) environ de votre visage et
parlez d'une voix normale, l'antenne étant dirigée vers le haut et vers l'extérieur.
