OPERATION
Before you use your CB radio, you
should know how to use it effectively
and courteously. “CB Operation Tips”
on Page 12 contains information that
will help you get more enjoyment from
your CB radio.
TURNING ON THE CB 
AND RECEIVING 
TRANSMISSIONS
1. Turn 
SQUELCH
 fully counterclock-
wise.
2. To turn on the CB, turn 
VOLUME
clockwise until it clicks and you
hear a hissing sound. The CB dis-
plays the last selected channel.
3. To tune to a specific channel, ro-
tate 
CHANNEL
 clockwise or coun-
terclockwise until the display
shows the desired channel.
To rapidly move up or down the
channels, turn 
CHANNEL 
only
slightly to the left or right.
4. Slowly turn 
SQUELCH
 clockwise
until the hissing sound stops.
Note: If the CB picks up
unwanted, partial, or very weak
transmissions, turn 
SQUELCH
clockwise to decrease the CB’s
sensitivity to these signals. Turn
SQUELCH
 counterclockwise if you
want to listen to a weak or distant
station.
5. Adjust 
VOLUME
 to a comfortable
listening level. 
6. To turn off the CB, turn 
VOLUME
counterclockwise until it clicks.
