TRC-484 40-Channel CB
(210-1556)               Care and Maintenance         Faxback Doc. # 31929

The Radio Shack TRC-484 40-Channel CB is an example of superior design and
craftsmanship.  The following suggestions will help you care for the CB so
you can enjoy it for years.

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

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

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

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

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

REPLACING THE FUSE

1.  Make sure the power source and CB are both off.

2.  Hold the fuse holder by both ends.

3.  Push the fuse holder ends together, then turn and release either end. 
    The fuse holder opens.

4.  If the fuse has blown, replace it with a 2-amp fuse of the same type
    and rating (Cat. No. 270-1007).

5.  Hold the fuse holder by both ends.

6.  Push the fuse holder ends together, then turn either end.  The fuse
    holder closes.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW

Your CB might cause TV or radio interference even when it is operating
properly.  To determine whether your CB is causing the interference, turn
off your CB.  If the interference goes away, your CB is causing the
interference.  Try to eliminate the interference by:

    Moving your CB away from the receiver.

    Contacting your local Radio Shack store for help.  If you cannot
    eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your
    CB.

Warning:  Do not open your CB to make any internal adjustments.  Any
          adjustments to a CB must be make by a qualified technician using
          the proper test equipment.

Internal adjustments and/or modifications can lead to illegal operation as
defined by FCC Rules, Part 95.  Such illegal operation can lead to very
serious consequences.
