Your telephone is an example of superior design and craftsmanship.  The
following suggestions will help you care for your telephone so you can
enjoy it for years.

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

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

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

  Keep the telephone away from dust or dirt, which can cause premature wear
  of parts.

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

  Use only the recommended batteries.  Always remove old or weak batteries.
  They can leak damaging chemicals that destroy electronic circuits.

Modifying or tampering with the telephone's internal components can cause a
malfunction and might invalidate your telephone's warranty.  If your tele-
phone is not performing as it should, take it to your local Radio Shack
store for assistance.  If the trouble is harming the telephone lines, the
telephone company might ask you to disconnect your telephone until you have
resolved the problem.
