Radio Care

Cleaning

Clean external surfaces of the radio with a mild detergent and a stiff, non- metallic, short-bristled brush. A suitable detergent solution may be mixed by adding one teaspoon of mild dishwashing detergent to one gallon of water (0.5% solution). Apply the detergent solution sparingly with the brush, being careful not to allow excess detergent to remain entrapped near connectors and controls or in cracks and crevices. Do not submerse the radio in the detergent solution. Dry the radio thoroughly with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Clean all battery contacts with a lint-free cloth to remove dirt, grease, or other foreign material that may prevent good electrical connections.

Handling

•Avoid physical abuse; do not pound, drop, or throw the radio unnecessarily. Do not carry the radio by the antenna.

•Avoid subjecting the radio to an excess of liquids. Never allow the radio to become submersed.

•Avoid subjecting the radio to corrosives, solvents, or spirits.

CAUTION

Clean the radio with the recommended solution only. Cleaning the radio with solvents or spirits may be harmful and permanently damage the radio housing.

Do not disassemble the radio in any way. Keep the connector cover in place until ready to use the accessory connector. Replace the cover immediately after the accessory has been disconnected.
