Caring for Your Radio
• 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. 
This could create 
leak paths into the 
radio and the 
radio’s 
submergibility will 
be lost.    
• Your radio is 
designed to be submerged to a maximum depth 
of 6 feet, with a maximum submersion time of 2 
hours. Exceeding either maximum limit may 
result in damage to the radio.
