Helpful Tips
Radio Care
Caution:
• Your radio casting has a vent port that
allows for pressure equalization in the
radio. Never poke this vent with any
objects, such as needles, tweezers, or
screwdrivers.
• Do not submerge the radio as this results
in damage to the radio.
• If water is observed on the battery contact
area, dry and clean the radio battery
contacts before attaching a battery to the
radio. Otherwise, the water could short-
circuit the radio.
• If water is observed on the speaker grill
area, shake the radio well so that any
water that may be trapped inside the
speaker grille and microphone port can be
removed. Otherwise, the water will
decrease the audio quality of the radio.
• Do not disassemble the radio. This could
damage radio seals and result in leak
paths into the radio. Any radio
maintenance should be performed only by
a qualified radio technician.
Cleaning Your Radio
Caution: Do not use solvents to clean your
radio as most chemicals may permanently
damage the radio housing and textures.
Do not submerge the radio in the detergent
solution.
To clean the external surfaces of your radio, follow
