Radio Care
Proper radio usage and care ensure efficient operation and long-life of the product.
CAUTION: Use the radio according to the following recommendations and warnings.
•
The cables connecting the rear of the radio can have live voltage on their pins. Do not remove
or reconnect these cables. Only a qualified radio technician should perform this task. Service
performed by unauthorized personnel can cause the radio to transmit an emergency alarm even if
the unit is turned off.
•
If your radio is locked up or the display shows FAIL 01/09, power cycle the radio. If this does not
correct the condition, take the radio to a qualified radio technician for service.
•
If radio operation is intermittent, check with other persons using the system for similar problems.
Similar problems can indicate a system malfunction rather than a radio failure.
•
If symptoms persist or if your unit exhibits other problems, contact a qualified radio technician.
2.1
Cleaning the External Surface of the Radio
Prerequisites:
CAUTION: Do not use solvents to clean your radio. Spirits can permanently damage the radio
housing.
Do not submerge the radio in detergent solution.
Procedure:
1 Combine one teaspoon of mild dishwashing detergent to one gallon of water (0.5% solution) to
clean the external surfaces of the radio.
2 Use a stiff, nonmetallic, short-bristled brush to apply the solution sparingly to remove any loose
dirt from the radio.
Ensure that excess detergent does not get entrapped near the connectors, controls, or crevices.
3 Dry the radio thoroughly with a soft, absorbent, lint-free cloth.
4 Ensure that no water remains entrapped near the connectors, cracks, or crevices.
