CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Your Optimus Portable CD Player is an example of superior design and crafts- manship. The following suggestions will help you care for your CD player so you can enjoy it for years.

Keep the CD player dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.

Use and store the CD player only in normal temperature environ- ments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devic- es, damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.

Keep the CD player away from dust and dirt, which can cause prema- ture wear of parts.

Handle the CD player gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage circuit boards and cases and can cause the CD player to work improp- erly.

Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type. Batteries can leak chemicals that damage your CD player’s electronic parts.

Wipe the CD player with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong deter- gents to clean the CD player.

Modifying or tampering with the CD player’s internal components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your CD player is not performing as it should, take it to your local Ra- dioShack store for assistance.
