You are responsible for equipment issued to you.
Check that the battery is fully charged. This may be done automatically on some units, with a beep tone indicating that the radios battery is charged and working.
Be sure the carrying case and other accessories are in good condition.
Report any physical defects or electronic malfunctions at once.
Keep radios away from water, chemicals, etc., that could damage or short out the radio.
Do not use the radio as anything other than a communication device.
Radio is not a hammer or a weapon.
Never let an unauthorized person handle the radio.
Do not let another security Guard borrow your radio. If another employee requires
