Windporting Technology:

The Windporting feature is automatically active. It uses a specialized microphone port design to minimize wind noise and other environmental sounds, ensuring your voice is transmitted clearly even in adverse conditions.

Accessory Jack (if present):

Some RSM models may include an accessory jack (e.g., 3.5mm) for connecting an external earpiece. If present, insert your compatible earpiece into this jack for private listening.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable performance of your NNTN8235A Remote Speaker Microphone.

  • Cleaning:
    • Wipe the exterior of the RSM with a soft, damp cloth.
    • Do not use harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners.
    • Ensure the microphone grille and speaker openings are free from dirt and debris. Use a soft brush if necessary.
  • Water Exposure:
    • While the RSM is IP57 rated, always ensure the accessory connector is securely attached to the radio to maintain its water resistance.
    • After exposure to water, especially saltwater, rinse the RSM with fresh water and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth before storage or further use.
  • Storage:
    • Store the RSM in a clean, dry environment away from extreme temperatures.
    • Avoid kinking or sharply bending the coiled cable to prevent internal wire damage.
