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 submersibility 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 six feet and maximum time of two
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.
