Common Radio Features
Sending a Silent Emergency Alarm
Your radio may have been programmed for silent emergency based 
on your needs or the needs of your workgroup.
To activate silent emergency: 
1 Press the orange top button (T2).
Your radio sends an emergency signal to the dispatcher, but 
shows no external indications that the emergency alarm is in 
progress. The audio is muted.
2 To exit the emergency mode, press and hold the orange top 
button for more than 1-1/2 seconds.
You hear a medium-pitched exit tone which confirms that the 
radio has exited successfully. The radio returns to the home 
display.
