As an extra precaution, it is recommended that the unit is left to soak in fresh water
to allow salt to dissolve and diffuse from hard-to-reach areas, such as crevices
between mating parts.

Leave the unit to soak for 24 hours, or as long as practical conditions allow.

3

Dry off the transponder and make sure that there is no water around the on/off
plug or the external connector.

4

Turn the unit off by removing the on/off plug or disconnecting the external cable.

5

Recharge the unit.

Result

The transponder is then ready for use.
