AUTOMATIC
POWER-OFF
FEATURE
The FT

after a user-defined amount
of
time. This can prevent your transceiver from draining your
car's battery, for example,
if
you forget to
tum
the transceiver
off
when leaving the car.

eration.
Once you have programmed a time interval, the APO countdown timer will start whenever

will shut down the radio automatically.
