Your Realistic 2-Channel VHF FM Transceiver is an example of superior
design and craftsmanship.  The following suggestions will help you care for
the transceiver so you can enjoy it for years.

    Keep the transceiver dry.  If it gets wet, immediately wipe it dry. 
    Some liquids contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.

    Use and store the transceiver only in normal temperature environments.
    Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage
    batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.

    Handle the transceiver gently and carefully.  Dropping it can damage
    the circuit boards and can cause the transceiver to work improperly.

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

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

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