phone helps prevent dust and moisture from getting into
the input jack. The flange around the rim of the connec-
tor on the transmitter helps retain the sleeve after it is
installed and
The following procedure simplifies the attachment and
removal of the microphone to assure the sleeve is
seated securely.
Align the pins on the plug and jack and insert the con-
nector.
