5)  ADJUSTMENT OF SWR (Standing wave ratio):

WARNING

 :

 This must be carried out when you use your CB radio for the first time

(and whenever you re-position your antenna). The adjustment must be
carried out in an obstacle-free area.

* Using the integrated SWR meter:

For this, carry out the following steps :

are less than three rows of the bar graph, then the SWR reading is acceptable
(1 being the ideal SWR value). If there are Minimum value more than three
rows, we advise you to re-adjust your antenna and re start the procedure from
step a).
