All Loc Out Problem

Hello, our scanner is brand new, my husband tried to add a few frequencies (does not know which he added) and for some reason we are all locked out of any scanning at this time. I have tried everything I can find with Googling this error. Holding #2 and #9 while turning power off does nothing, holding #2 and #9 and hold while powering off does nothing. Nothing works. The book I found to go with this model is all in French. We are very very frustrated, please help.

The simplest way for this to occur is that you have just locked out all your programmed frequencies. Just manually step to any channel in a bank that is toggled on and has programming in it, and toggle the LO key to reestablish at least one channel to be unlocked.

Or you need to program the channels. Look for a "Lock" button among the buttons on the front of the device. Press and hold the button down until the key icon on the LCD display goes out.

If the above instructions do not solve the issue, please refer to page "45" of the below manual link;
