Recommendation
CLEAN THE TRANSCEIVER THOROUGHLY IN A BOWL OF FRESH WATER
after
exposure to saltwater, and dry it before operating. Otherwise, the transceiver’s keys and
switches may become unusable, due to salt crystallization.
NOTE:
If the transceiver’s waterproof protection appears defective, carefully clean
it with a soft, damp (fresh water) cloth, then dry it before operating. The transceiver
may lose its waterproof protection if the case, jack cover, or battery cover is cracked
or broken, or the transceiver has been dropped. Contact your Icom distributor or your
dealer for advice.
