MN005642A01-AG Chapter 1: Read Me First 3 Chapter 2 Radio Care Proper radio usage and care ensure efficient operation and long life of the product. CAUTION: Use the radio according to the following recommendations and warnings. • Your radio casing has a vent port for pressure equalization in the radio. Never poke this vent with objects such as needles, tweezers, or screwdrivers. Poking the vent could create leak paths into the radio and the radio submergibility will be lost. • Never obstruct or cover the vent port, even with a label. • Ensure that no oily substances come in contact with the vent port. • Your radio is designed to be submerged to a maximum depth of 6 feet and maximum time of 2 hours. Exceeding either maximum limit may result in damage to the radio. • Elastomer seals used in portable radios age with time and environmental exposure. To ensure the waterseal integrity of the radio, Motorola Solutions recommends that radios be checked annually as a preventive measure. The disassembly, test, and reassembly procedures along with necessary test equipment are available in the Service Manual. • If the radio battery contacts are exposed to water without the battery attached, dry and clean the radio battery contacts before attaching a battery to the radio. Turn the radio over with the battery contact facing down and shake the radio so any trapped water can escape. A short circuit of the contacts could occur if they are not dried properly. • If the radio has been submerged in water, shake the radio to remove any water that is trapped inside the speaker grille and microphone port. Otherwise, the water decreases the audio quality of the radio. • If an accessory is not attached to the radio, ensure that the accessory connector cover is attached to the radio side accessory connector. • If the radio is submerged or exposed to a high force water spray, such as from a hose, remove the accessory or accessory connector cover immediately and ensure that no water is forced into the accessory connector/radio interface. Rinse and dry the area and re-attach the accessory or accessory connector cover if leakage occurs. • If the radio is exposed to a corrosive environment, such as salt water or corrosive gases or liquids, rinse and clean the radio immediately to prevent damage to radio materials, especially plated surfaces. Remove the battery and the antenna before cleaning. • Do not disassemble the radio as you could damage radio seals and result in leak paths into the radio. Any radio maintenance should be performed only by a qualified radio technician. • Only Underwriter Laboratory (UL) approved service centers can open and service UL certified radios. Opening or repairing at unauthorized locations invalidates hazardous location rating of the radio. • Do not pound, drop, or throw the radio unnecessarily. • Turn off the radio when charging the radio using a wall-mounted charger. Otherwise, the Man Down Alert and Emergency may be accidentally triggered. • When cleaning the radio, do not use a high-pressure jet spray as this may exceed the depth pressure and cause water to leak into the radio.
