CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your
Keep the transceiver dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.
Use and store the transceiver only in normal tem- perature environments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices and dis- tort or melt plastic parts.
Keep the transceiver away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature wear of parts.
Handle the transceiver gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage circuit boards and cases and can cause the transceiver to work improper- ly.
Wipe the transceiver with a damp cloth occasion- ally to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong deter- gents to clean the transceiver.
Modifying or tampering with the transceiver’s internal compo- nents can cause a malfunction and might invalidate its warran- ty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your transceiver is not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance.
