Care and Maintenance

Your RadioShack TRC-509 FM Walkie-Talkie is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for your walkie-talkie so you can enjoy it for years.

Keep the walkie-talkie dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids might contain minerals that can cor- rode the electronic circuits.

Use and store the walkie-talkie only in normal temperature environments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.

Keep the walkie-talkie away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature wear of parts.

Handle the walkie-talkie gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage cir- cuit boards and cases and can cause the walkie-talkie to work improperly.
