Midland C1179 Instruction Manual page 4

Above all....Safety!
Warnings
! Do not open the radio for any reason! The radio's precision mechanics and
electronics require experience and specialized equipment; for the same reason,
the radio should under no circumstances be realigned as it has already been
calibrated for maximum performance. Unauthorized opening of the transcei-
ver will void the warranty.
! Do not use detergents, alcohol, solvents, or abrasives to clean the equipment.
Just use a soft, clean cloth. If the radio is very dirty, slightly dampen the cloth
with a mixture of water and a neutral soap.
Batteries
! Do not try to charge alkaline batteries or non rechargeable batteries. Make
sure that when you charge the radio, only rechargeable NI-MH batteries
should be contained in the battery compartment! It is very dangerous at-
tempting to recharge other types of batteries (for example alkaline or man-
ganese batteries). Batteries which are not suitable to be recharged may leak,
explode or even burn and cause damage!
! Using a different battery charger other than the one specified can cause da-
mage to your device or may even cause explosions and personal injuries.
! Do not throw batteries into fire or place them near heat as this may cause ex-
plosions or personal injuries. Dispose of the batteries according to procedures
set out by local regulations.
! Do not mix old and new batteries or batteries of different types or batteries
which have been used in different manners.
