SECTION 3
DISASSEMBLY
3.1
Precautions for Waterproof
• Do not remove the black sheet from the reverse side of the transceiver (refer to the illustration below). Removal of this sheet
decreases the waterproof efficiency of the transceiver and may cause malfunctions if water seeps into the transceiver.
• The black packing material on the reverse side of the transceiver is important with respect to the waterproof efficiency of the
transceiver.
• Do not place stickers or other materials on the shaded area that the battery contacts shown in the figure. Doing so will impair the
waterproof efficiency of the transceiver and may cause it to break down.
Additionally, in order to prevent damage to the packing material, do not allow it to come in contact with foreign materials.
