Setup and Charging

Initial Charging

Before first use, fully charge the walkie talkies. Each unit has a built-in, non-removable Lithium Ion battery.

Connect the provided USB-C charging cable to the charging port on the walkie talkie.
Connect the other end of the USB-C cable to a compatible USB power adapter (not included) or a computer USB port.
The charging indicator light will illuminate. A full charge typically takes approximately 2.5 hours.
Once fully charged, the indicator light may change or turn off, depending on the model. Disconnect the cable.

The walkie talkies offer approximately 7 days of standby time on a full charge.

Operating Instructions

Power On/Off

To power on: Press and hold the Power/Menu button until the screen illuminates.
To power off: Press and hold the Power/Menu button until the screen turns off.

Adjusting Volume

Use the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust the speaker volume. Adjusting the volume can also help block out background noise for clearer reception.

Changing Channels

The walkie talkies have 22 available channels.

Press the Menu button once. The channel number on the display will flash.
Use the UP or DOWN buttons to select the desired channel.
Press the Menu button again or wait a few seconds for the selection to be confirmed.

For communication, all walkie talkies must be set to the same channel.

Transmitting (Push-to-Talk - PTT)

To speak to another walkie talkie:

Ensure both walkie talkies are on the same channel.
Press and hold the PTT (Push-to-Talk) button located on the side of the unit.
Speak clearly into the microphone (MIC) located near the bottom of the display.
Release the PTT button when finished speaking to allow the other party to respond.

VOX Function (Voice-Activated Transmission)

The VOX function allows for hands-free communication without pressing the PTT button.

Press the Menu button multiple times until the VOX icon (usually "VOX" or a microphone symbol) flashes on the display.
Use the UP or DOWN buttons to select the VOX sensitivity level (e.g., 1-3, with 1 being most sensitive). Or select "OFF" to disable VOX.
Press the Menu button again to confirm the setting.

When VOX is active, the walkie talkie will automatically transmit when it detects your voice.

Using the LED Flashlight

The built-in LED flashlight provides illumination in dark environments.

To turn on the flashlight: Press the Flashlight button (often indicated by a light bulb icon).
