USER TIPS

GENERAL:

The FR-225 is a transceiver operating with radio

waves on the 446 MHz band. The signal transfer

could be disturbed by external influences such

as other walkie-talkies, transmitters, wireless

phones, etc.

If your walkie-talkie receives or causes interfer-

ence, this is usually resolved by switching chan-

nel.

Use of this walkie-talkie is authorized in all EU

countries. If you’d like to bring your FR-225 to

countries outside the EU, refer to the local restric-

tions on the use of PMR446 equipment of the

concerned country.

Keep in mind that the signal of the FR-225 may

also be heard by walkie-talkies or receivers other

than yours.

It’s not allowed to make any changes to the elec-

tronics or to the antenna of the FR-225. Service

may only be performed by qualified electricians.

Never use the FR-225 outdoors during thunder-

storms.

POWER:

The battery symbol in the display indicates the

charge of the inserted batteries.

Batteries full

Batteries 1/3 full, a double beep tone is emit-

ted every 10 minutes, please recharge or

replace now

Only recharge the included rechargeable batter-

ies by placing the walkie-talkies onto the supplied

charger or by connecting the power adaptor

directly to the walkie-talkie.

RADIO CONNCTION:

The FR-225 has a range of up to 7km. This range

depends on local conditions such as tall build-

ings, high voltage towers and overhead wires. An

optimal range is achieved when the walkie-talkie

has a free view of the receiver.

SUB CHANNEL:

A Walkie-talkie on which no sub channel is set

can receive the signal from all handsets transmit-

ting on the same channel. Talking back is pos-

sible only when you’ve set the same sub channel

as the other Walkie-talkie.

MAINTENANCE:

• Only clean the FR-225 with a moist cloth.

• Never place the walkie-talkie in direct sunlight

or in a humid environment.

• Prevent water and/or sand from penetrating

the FR-225.

• In case of a failure, first check whether the

FR-225 can be used at a different location.

ENVIRONMENT:

• In case the baby video monitor is being

replaced, please return it to your supplier;

they will guarantee environment-friendly

processing.

• Exhausted batteries can be returned to the

supplier of these walkie-talkies or you may

bring them to your local depot for small chemi-

cal waste.

• Never discard empty batteries or exhausted

accumulators as regular household waste.

too large, please decrease the distance

Noise or other additional sounds:
