• Emergency Button: In an emergency, press the orange programmable emergency button. The specific function of this button is configured on your radio. Refer to your radio's user manual for details on emergency signaling.
• Discreet Listening: If an earpiece is connected to the 3.5mm audio jack, audio will be routed to the earpiece instead of the microphone's speaker.
