MTX-103 VHF Marine Transceiver
(190-1004)                 Care and Maintenance       Faxback Doc. # 18750

Your Radio Shack MTX-103 VHF Marine 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, wipe it dry immediately. 
     Liquids might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic
     circuits.

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

     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.

     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 your transceiver's warranty.  If your
transceiver is not performing as it should, take it to your local Radio
Shack store for assistance.
