Uniden MHS450 Radio Owner’s Manual
Owner Manual Conventions
To indicate a key, button, knob or other physical control, we
print the label in BOLD UPPER CASE. To indicate an LCD
(display) label, option, or selection, we use UPPER or Lower
Case italic labels such as MENU, 5 Seconds, etc.
You will also occasionally see an option labeled as (default).
This means that the option is set in the manner indicated at
the factory and is the setting when you rst apply power. If
you choose not to alter it, the default is the setting used by
the radio.
