CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Your Optimus Multiband PLL Radio is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The
following suggestions will help you care for your radio so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the radio dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids might contain
minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.
Use and store the radio only in normal temperature environments. Temperature
extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and dis-
tort or melt plastic parts.
Keep the radio away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature wear of
parts.
Handle the radio gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage circuit boards
and cases and can cause the radio to work improperly.
Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type. Batteries
can leak chemicals that damage your radio's electronic parts.
Wipe the radio with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new. Do not use
harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the radio.
Modifying or tampering with the radio's internal components can cause a malfunction and
might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your radio is not
performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance.
