WARNING.. When you first hear the beep toae, you should turn the

unit off and immediately replace your batteries (or recharge if NiCad

batteries are used) to avoid losing memory. When you replace weak

batteries, you must install the new ones immediately to keep the sca-

nner memory. Be sure to read the "Installing Batteries" section of this

guide before attempting to replace your batteries.

HELPFUL HINTS

The following hints are provided to help you get the most out of your new scan-

ner. By reading this entire guide, including this section, you will better under-

stand and enjoy your new Uniden(ii)Bearcat(ii)50XL.

1. Always remember to press the enter key when programing a frequency. If

the enter key is not pressed the frequency will not be programmed into that

channel. It is a good idea to press the review key after entering a frequency

to confirm that the correct number was entered.

2. If you ever have to ship the unit. be sure to remove the antenna and place

it and the unit in the original styrofoam inner packing and box. One of the

most common causes of damage to electronic products is improper pack-

ing when shipping.

3. Remember that the liquid crystal display is subject to permanent damage

if it is exposed to extremes in temperature or humidity. Take extra care with

your scanner in the winter and on sunny, summer days.

4. The Uniden(ii)Bearcat(ii)50XL never sleeps-its memory is always active

even though the power is turned off. Battery drain in the off mode is almost

as Iow as the discharge rate of the batteries alone. As long as you observe

the battery Iow indicator and act accordingly, you shouldn't have any prob-

lem with memory loss.

5. Receiver sensitivity is affected by the location of the antenna and the en-

vironment that the unit is used in. Best reception will occur when the unit

is placed on a level metal surface with the antenna pointing up. Placing

the unit close to a window will also provide better reception.

6. Receivers, such as the Uniden@Bearcat(ii)50XL, which have broad tuning

ranges are subject to interference from internally generated signals ("Bir-

dies") on a few receiver frequencies. On these frequencies, reception of

external signals may be impaired. Nothing is wrong with your scanner if

this kind of interference occurs, unless it happens on a large number of

frequencies.
