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.
• (For APX 7000/APX7000L R Radios Only)
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.
