Waterproof Specifications

The Atlantis 270 is a submersible radio, complying with floating JIS7/IPX7 water-resistant standards. The radio can be submerged in 1 meter of water for 30 minutes without damage.

CAUTION! The radio will only meet this rating if fully assembled and all rubber seals are well maintained and correctly fitted. This means that the battery and casing must be 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 exposured to salt water, clean it thoroughly with fresh water and dry it before turning it on.

The charger is not waterproof.
