Pocket Weatheradio with Alert (120-0143B) Care and Maintenance Faxback Doc. # 16975 The Radio Shack Pocket Weatheradio with Alert is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for the weatheradio so you can enjoy it for years. Keep the weatheradio dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits. Use and store the weatheradio only in normal temperature environments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts. Handle the weatheradio gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage the case and circuit boards and can cause the weatheradio to work improperly. Keep the weatheradio away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature wear of parts. Wipe the weatheradio with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the weatheradio. Use only fresh batteries of the recommended size and type. Always remove old or weak batteries. They can leak chemicals that destroy electronic circuits. Modifying or tampering with the weatheradio's internal components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate the weatheradio's warranty. If your weatheradio is not performing as it should, take it to your local Radio Shack store for assistance.
