92  Emergency operation
Standard emergency mode
When you press the emergency key your radio enters 
‘emergency mode’, if your radio is programmed in 
this way.
When the radio enters emergency mode, it will 
automatically send alerts together with your radio unit 
ID to the dispatcher. These alerts are usually sent on 
a designated emergency channel.
Warning  The way your radio behaves in emergency 
mode depends on how your radio is programmed.
For further information on what your radio may do in 
emergency mode, see 
.
Stealth and non-stealth emergency modes
Your radio is programmed to operate in one of 
these ways:
Stealth: you often work in situations where you do 
not want an assailant to know that you have acti-
vated emergency mode. For this reason, the radio 
is silent and the display remains unchanged—
there is no indication that the radio has entered 
emergency mode.
An optional feature of stealth emergencies is false 
powerdown (‘keep alive’). When an unauthorized 
person attempts to prevent you from using your 
radio by turning it off, the radio appears to turn off. 
However, the radio is still in emergency mode.
Non-stealth: you often work in situations where 
you want audible and visual confirmation that you 
have activated emergency mode (for example, at 
an accident scene).
