Your Realistic DX-342 9-Band Portable 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.

   Keep the receiver dry.  If it does get wet, wipe it dry immediately.
   Liquids might 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, damage
   batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.

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

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

   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 the receiver.

   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 receiver's internal components can cause
a malfunction and might invalidate the receiver's warranty and void your
FCC authorization to operate the receiver.  If your receiver is not
performing as it should, take it to your local Radio Shack store.  Our
personnel can assist you and arrange for service if needed.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW

Your receiver might cause interference on other radio/TV devices even when
it is operating properly.  To determine whether your receiver is causing
the interference, turn off your receiver.  If the interference goes away,
your receiver is causing the interference.

Try to eliminate the interference by:

Moving your receiver away from the other device

Connecting your receiver to an outlet that is on a different electrical 
circuit from the other device

Contacting your local Radio Shack store for help

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop
using your receiver.
