4. GETTING STARTED

4.1 RADIO CARE

Before following the instructions below, insure the battery pack is in place
and firmly connected. Care must be taken if the radio was dropped and
a close inspection may be needed to insure the radio case and gaskets
are in adequate condition.
The design of the HX290 allows water to enter between the radio and the
battery pack, however waterproof performance is not compromised.
After using the HX290 in salt water environment is recommended to clean the
radio with fresh water by rinsing the battery and radio (separately) under a sink
facet or by dunking in a fresh water. After washing, use a soft cloth to thor-
oughly dry all parts of the radio and battery.
This will keep the radio parts and the battery clean and in top operating condi-
tion.
