Handling Precautions
Handling Precautions
The MOTOTRBO DP1400 Portable radio meets IP54
specifications with the antenna and dust cover attached. Your
radio limits protection against dust and water exposure.
•
Keep your radio clean and exposure to water should be
avoided to help ensure proper functionality and performance.
•
To clean the exterior surfaces of the radio, use a diluted
solution of mild dishwashing detergent and fresh water (i.e.
one teaspoon of detergent to one gallon of water).
•
These surfaces should be cleaned whenever a periodic visual
inspection reveals the presence of smudges, grease, and/or
grime.
The effects of certain chemicals and their vapors
can have harmful results on certain plastics.
Avoid using aerosol sprays, tuner cleaners and
other chemicals.
