	I see it also; downloaded the instruction manual, and I guess now 
you're correct in your previous assumption regarding the polarity (it's 
a non polarized cap, as it is). Note also that they do not state any 
value (but for the ptt resistor) so I think they leave you to choose the 
adequate value/type.
