•
into the charging dongle.
Replace the dongle with the 6-pin Lemo microphone.

USE TIPS
:
The AquaMic is waterproof to 10 meters.
Audio quality and RF performance maybe be impacted if
water is able to penetrate into a loose-fitting connector.
To keep the AquaMic in top condition, rinse the
AquaMic with fresh water after use, especially if used in
saltwater.
