The Radio Shack ET-152 Headset Telephone is an example of superior design
and craftsmanship.  The following suggestions will help you care for the
ET-152 so you can enjoy it for years.

    Keep the ET-152 dry.  If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.
    Liquids might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic
    circuits.

    Handle the ET-152 gently and carefully.  Dropping it can damage
    circuit boards and cases and can cause the ET-152 to work
    improperly.

    Use and store the ET-152 only in normal temperature environments.
    Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices
    and distort or melt plastic parts.

    Keep the ET-152 away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature
    wear of parts.

    Wipe the ET-152 with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking
    new.  Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong
    detergents to clean the ET-152.

Modifying or tampering with the ET-152 Headset Telephone's internal
components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate the ET-152's
warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it.  If the ET-152 is
not operating as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for
assistance.  If the trouble is harming the phone lines, the telephone
company might ask you to disconnect the ET-152 until you have resolved the
problem.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW

In the unlikely event that the phone causes problems on the phone line, the
phone company can temporarily discontinue your service.  If this happens,
the phone company attempts to notify you in advance.  If advance notice is
not practical, the phone company notifies you as soon as possible and
advises you of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Also, the phone company can make changes to its lines, equipment,
operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of this
telephone.  The telephone company notifies you of these changes in advance,
so you can take the necessary steps to prevent interruption of your
telephone service.

LIGHTNING

The telephone has built-in protection circuits to reduce the risk of damage
from surges in telephone line and power line current.  These protection
circuits meet or exceed the FCC requirements.  However, lightning striking
the telephone power lines can damage the telephone.

Lightning damage is not common.  Nevertheless, if you live in an area that
has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug the phone during
storms to reduce the possibility of damage.
