water
for
two hours. Radios shipped from the Motorola
factory have passed the water immersion test and
should not be
disassembled.
If disassembly
is
necessary,
refer to qualified
service personnel
and
service shops capable
of restoring the
watertight
integrity of the radio.
Submersible models can be identified by the
black escutcheon
with white lettering on top of the
radio.
lf
the radio is
accidentally dropped
in water,
shake the radio to remove the
excess
water
from
the
speaker grille area
before operating;
otherwise, the sound may be distorted until the
water has evaporated
from
this area.
Also,
remove the battery and dry the battery contacts
on
the bottom
of
the radio.

GENERAL
INFORMATION
To ensure that the submersible radio
is truly
a
watertight
unit,
special testing, test procedures,
and specialized test equipment are required.
The
special testing involves a vacuum check
of
the
radio and
pressure testing (troubleshooting)
for
water
leaks
if
the
vacuum
check fails. The
specialized test
equipment
is
needed
to
perform
the vacuum
check
and
pressure testing, if
required.
NOTE
When ordering replacement batteries
for a
submersible
radio, either
NTN4596 (Ni-Cd, FM
approved, Ultra-High-Capacity)
or
NTN4538
(Ni-Cd,
FM
approved, Medium-Capacity)
should be ordered.

SPECIALIZED
TEST
EQUIPMENT
a.
Vacuum Pump Kit, NLN9839
The vacuum
pump kit
includes
a
vacuum
pump with
gauge,
and
a
vacuum hose. An
adapter
with
gasket (NTN4264),
which must be
ordered separately,
connects
the vacuum hose to
the radio's
baseplate. The vacuum
pump
kit and
adapter are also used
on
Motorola EXPO™
radios.
CAUTION
It
is
strongly
recommended that
maintenance of the submersible radio be
deferred to qualified service personnel and
service shops. This
is.
of paramount
importance
as irreparable damage
to the
radio can result
from
service
by
unauthorized persons.
If
disassembly is
necessary, unauthorized
attempts
to
repair
the radio may void any existing warranties
or
extended performance agreements
with
Motorola. it
is also recommended
that
submersibility
be
checked annually
by
qualified service personnel.
b.
Pressure
Pump Kit, NTN4265
The pressure
pump kit
includes a pressure
pump with
gauge,
and a
pressure hose;
the
pressure pump
kit is
also used
on
Motorola
EXPO
radios.
As
with the vacuum pump
kit above,
the
NTN4264 adapter connects the pressure hose to
the radio's baseplate.
c. Miscellaneous Hardware
Other items needed for testing the
submersible radio include:
*
Large water container.
¢
Fresh water
* A supply
of
replacement
seals, O-rings,
and
gaskets
(refer
to
the exploded view parts lists
in
the
applicable service manual
for Motorola
part
numbers).
