AquaQuake water draining function
The transceiver uses a new technology to clear water away

otherwise muffle the sound coming from the speaker). The
transceiver emits a vibrating beep when this function is
being used.

Push and hold both [SCAN] and [H/L].
• A low beep tone sounds for 9 sec. to drain water, regardless of
volume level setting.
• The transceiver does not perform key operations while the
AquaQuake function is activated. The AquaQuake function can not
be activated when an optional speaker-microphone is connected.
