NOTIFICATION OF WATER-RESISTANT MODEL
Water Resistance and Maintenance
Water-Resistant Model transceiver conforms to the following standards.
IP67:
The IP standard is the protection level specified by the international
standard IEC 60529. The first numeral indicates the “dust-resistant level”
and the second numeral indicates the “water-resistant” level.
Note:
●
Initial water-resistant tests and procedures are performed products
upon being ordered from
KENWOOD
.
PRECAUTIONS
●
The applicable standards listed above do not assure that the
transceiver can be used in water. The transceiver may be damaged in
a situation in which the maximum depth is over 1 meter or the maximum
submersion time exceeds 30 minutes.
●
Observe the following precautions to maintain the transceiver’s water-
resistant performance:
a) Do not drop or apply strong physical shocks to the transceiver.
b) Do not disassemble or attempt to modify the transceiver. (If it is
disassembled or modified, its performance is not guaranteed.)
c) Do not soak the transceiver in water that contains a solvent or
surfactant, such as detergent or alcohol.
●
If it is soaked in muddy water or salt water (including sea water), it may
become corroded. Immediately flush with fresh water and then wipe
dry with a soft cloth.
●
If water is splashed onto the microphone, the battery, or the antenna
terminal, clean and dry them with a soft cloth before reconnecting to
the transceiver.
●
When water gets into the microphone opening or the speaker grill, the
voice level may become low or distorted. Lightly shake the transceiver
to remove the water from the speaker and/or microphone before
operating the transceiver.
●
Use of any option on the transceiver not specified by
KENWOOD
, may
reduce or void the water resistant and dust resistant performance.
