NOTIFICATION OF WATER-RESISTANT MODEL
Water Resistance and Maintenance
Water-Resistant Model transceiver conforms to the following standards.
Immersion: The transceiver retains its water resistant capabilities
outlined in U.S. Military Standards when submersed in water at a depth
of 1 meter (3.28 feet) for 2 hours.
IP67/ IP68: The IP standard is the protection level specifi ed by the
international standard IEC 60529. The fi rst 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 2 hours.
• 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 modifi ed, 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 fl ush 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 specifi ed by KENWOOD, may
reduce or void the water resistant and dust resistant performance.
