■ AquaQuake water draining function
The IC-M604 uses a new technology to clear water away
from the speaker grill: AquaQuake. AquaQuake helps drain
water away from the speaker housing (water that might oth-
erwise muffle the sound coming from the speaker). The IC-
M604 emits a vibrating noise when this function is being
used.
➥ While pushing and holding [H/L], turn power ON.
• A low beep tone sounds while [H/L] key is pushed and held to
drain water, regardless of [VOL] control setting.
• The transceiver never accepts a key operation while the
AquaQuake function is activated.
While pushing and holding [PTT] on the optional HM-162,
turn power ON to clear water away from the HM-162.
