Helpful Hints
General Use
? Turn the scanner off before disconnecting the power.
? Always write down the programmed frequencies in the event of
memory loss. If memory is lost, simply reprogram each channel.
The display shows "MEMO LOSS" when memory is lost.
? Always press each keypad button firmly until you hear the entry
tone for that key entry.
Location
? If strong interference or electrical noise is received, relocate the
scanner or its antenna away from the source of the noise. A
higher elevation, if possible, may provide better reception. You
might also try changing the height or angle of the telescoping an-
tenna.
? Do not use the scanner in high-moisture environments such as the
kitchen or bathroom.
? Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or near heating elements or
vents.
? Do not plug the scanner into an outlet controlled by a wall switch
as prolonged periods without power will cause scanner memory
loss.
Cleaning
? Disconnect the power to the unit before cleaning.
? Clean the outside of the scanner with a mild detergent.
? To prevent scratches, do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
Be careful not to rub the LCD window.
? Do not use excessive amounts of water.
Repairs
? Do not attempt any repair. The scanner contains no serviceable
parts. Contact the Uniden Customer Service Center or take it to a
qualified repair technician.
Birdies
All radios are subject to receiving undesired signals or birdies. If your
scanner stops during SEARCH mode and no sound is heard, it may be re-
ceiving a birdie. Birdies are internally-generated signals inherent in the
electronics of the receiver. If the interference is not severe, you might be
able to tur[SQ]n counterclockwise to cut out the birdie. Or, press
[SEARCH] to resume searching. (Known birdie frequencies for the
BC350A are: 31.200, 41.600, and 52.000 MHz)
