Your Radio Shack CTR-98 4-Band Portable Radio Cassette Recorder with Multi-
Voltage Selection is an example of superior design and craftsmanship.  The
following suggestions will help you care for your CTR-98 so you can enjoy
it for years.

    Keep the CTR-98 dry.  If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.  Liquids
    might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic  circuits.

    Handle the CTR-98 gently and carefully.  Dropping it can damage circuit
    boards and cases and can cause the CTR-98 to work improperly.

    Use and store the CTR-98 only in normal temperature environments.
    Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices and
    distort or melt plastic parts.

    Keep the CTR-98 away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature
    wear of parts.

    Wipe the CTR-98 with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.
    Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to
    clean the CTR-98.

Modifying or tampering with the CTR-98's internal components can cause a
malfunction and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC author-
ization to operate it.  If your CTR-98 is not performing as it should,
take it to your local Radio Shack store for assistance.
