DX-380  (200-0213)           Care and Maintenance      Faxback Doc. # 16718

The Realistic DX-380 Receiver is an example of superior design and
craftsmanship.  The following suggestions will help you care for the
receiver so that you can enjoy it for years.

    Use only fresh batteries of the recommended size and type.  Never leave
    dead or weak batteries in the receiver.  They might leak chemicals that
    can damage the receiver.  If you are not going to use the receiver for
    several days, remove the batteries.

    Keep the receiver dry.  If it does get wet, wipe it dry immediately. 
    Liquids can contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.

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

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

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

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

Modifying or tampering with your receiver's internal components can cause a
malfunction and might invalidate the receiver's warranty and void you FCC
authorization to operate the receiver.  If the receiver is not performing
as it should, take it to the local Radio Shack store where our personnel
will assist you.
