manual abstract
However, when a NiCd battery pack is not available, use high quality alkaline batteries. If manganese batteries are used, it is recommended that transmissions be made only with the "L" or "EL" transmitter output power. 1 To remove the battery case, simultaneously press the tab on the back of the case while pulling out the case from the transceiver. 2 Open the battery case by simultaneously pressing on the locking tab on the bottom of the case while pulling the two case halves apart. Locking tab 3 Insert 4 AA manganese or alkaline batteries in the case half with metal contacts making sure the + and - end of each battery is as shown. * If replacing batteries, remove the old batteries first by lifting up on each battery end. Never discard old batteries in fire as extremely high temperatures can cause batteries to explode. 4 Insert the two small alignment tabs on the other half of the case into their matching holes in the case half containing the batteries. Press the case halves together until the tab on the case bottom locks in place. Note: ► Install only alkaline or manganese batteries in the battery case. Installing NiCd batteries in the battery case will cause an electrical short that generates heat and damages either the battery case or transceiver. ► Remove the batteries from the battery case if your transceiver will not be used for a long time. Insert the battery case into the bottom of the transceiver, and push in until the tab on the case locks in place. CAUTION: Do not install the battery pack or batteries in a hazardous environment where sparks could cause an explosion. BATTERY VOLTAGE LEVEL The horizontal bars on the Display show the relative battery voltage while transmitting using “EL" output power. Recharge or replace the batteries as necessary using the accompanying diagrams as reference. mi New Battery Discharged Battery NiCd Battery (PB-30) !

The 4 steps below will get you on the air in your first QSO within minutes to allow you to experience the exhilaration that comes with opening a brand new transceiver. After spreading the word to your best buddies that you are now “handy-active", settle back in your most comfortable operating chair with this manual and your favorite drink for an hour or two. The time spent will be worthwhile. 1 Install a new set of batteries or a charged battery pack ^page 3}. Holding the provided antenna at its base, twist the antenna onto the BNC connector until you feel the antenna click in place. 2 Turn the PWR/VOL control clockwise to the 11 o'clock position. 3 Turn the ENC/SQL control to select a frequency. • If accessing a repeater, press [F], [REV] to select a standard positive transmit offset. Repeat to select a negative offset. • If a subaudible tone is required to access the repeater, see page 30. 4 When the frequency is clear, press [PTT] and begin communicating. • Release [PTT] to receive. CAUTION: Transmitting with the supplied antenna near other electronic equipment can interfere with that equipment Also, transmitting near a regulated power supply not specified may cause the power supply to output an extremely high voltage that could damage both your transceiver and any other equipment connected to the supply. 6 GETTING ACQUAINTED ORIENTATION ÏU ÍV WB LOCK CAUTJW.T >0 0000000 OOOOOOO 'o 0000000 - 00000000 W=ï\0 OOOOOOO 31 J AO o„o OO O Wri^o OOOOOOO 00000000 4J0MHZ FM TRANSCEIVER TH-42AT KENWOOD • *Q DTSS DTW.M _ 'CD 2 CD 3CD CD* *CD 5CD “CD CD“ 'CD »CD SCD CDc *CD »CD »CD CDd 0 PWR/VOL control ©ENC/SQL control ^exixD® DC IN Jack protector cap Keypad TH-42AT The keypad is an option for General market versions.
