DX-399 Shortwave Receiver
(200-0229)                 Care and Maintenance       Faxback Doc. # 57600

Your RadioShack DX-399 Shortwave Receiver is an example of superior design 
and craftsmanship.  The following suggestions will help you care for your 
receiver so you can enjoy it for years.

  Keep the receiver dry.  If it gets 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. 

  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 cases and can cause the receiver to work improperly.

  Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.
  Batteries can leak chemicals that damage your receiver's electronic
  parts.

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

Modifying or tampering with the DX-399's internal components can cause a 
malfunction and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC
authorization to operate it.  If your DX-399 is not performing as it 
should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance.

The FCC Wants You To Know

Your DX-399 might cause TV or radio interference 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 it.  Try to eliminate the interference by:

  Moving your receiver away from the receiver. 
  
  Connecting your receiver to an outlet that is on a different electrical 
  circuit from the receiver.

  Contacting your local RadioShack store for help.

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

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.  Operation is subject 
to the following two conditions:

(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and 

(2) This device must accept any interference received, including 
    interference that may cause undesired operation.
