intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
NOTE
literature accompanying the appliance.
Floating/Waterproof: JIS8
Uniden's MHS050 radio is designed to meet the water proofing
standard of JIS8 and will float in water.
This Means: Protected against the effects of continuous immersion in water.
The MHS050 can withstand immersion in water up to 1.5m depth for 1hr.
Note this is not suitable for scuba diving.
The MHS050 will only meet this rating if fully assembled
and all rubber seals are well maintained and correctly fitted.
This means that the carabiner clip is not connected and the
NOTE
battery cover securely fastened.
After your radio is submerged in water, you might notice that the sound
is distorted. This is because there is still water remaining in and around
the speaker and microphone. Just shake the radio to clear excess water,
and the sound should return to normal.
If your radio is exposed to salt water, clean your radio
thoroughly with fresh water, and dry it before turning it on.
