Allows your radio to withstand adverse field
conditions such as being exposed to water or
dust.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble your radio. This could damage radio seals and result in leak
paths into the radio. Radio maintenance should only be done in service depot that is equipped
to test and replace the seal on the radio.
• If your radio has been submersed in water, shake your radio well to remove any water that may be
trapped inside the speaker grille and microphone port. Trapped water could cause decreased audio
performance.
• If your radio has been submersed in a corrosive substance (for example, saltwater), rinse radio in
fresh water then dry radio.
• To clean the exterior surfaces of your radio, use a diluted solution of mild dishwashing detergent
and fresh water (for example, one teaspoon of detergent to one gallon of water).
• When cleaning your radio, do not use a high pressure jet spray on radio as this may cause water to
leak into your radio.
