You might want to ask the radio people who issued it to you, because it might not be programmed for scan, and if it is there are several buttons that they could have programmed to make it scan.

I assumed that would be evident from reading the manual. I was wrong. H. L. Mencken, and others, apparently were right.

Try a 2 sec press on each button. Usually the buttons can be dual function, with short press = 0.25 sec or long press = 1 sec, or something like this. If your team was not issued a pager, then they expect the radio to be on the dispatch channel 100%. There may not be a scan button programmed.
