CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your Radio Shack TRC-234 5-Watt 40-Channel CB
Walkie-Talkie is an example of superior design and
craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help
you care for your CB so you can enjoy it for years.
• Keep the CB dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry imme-
diately. Liquids can contain minerals that can
corrode the electronic circuits.
• Use and store the CB only in normal tempera-
ture environments. Temperature extremes can
shorten the life of electronic devices, damage
batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.
• Handle the CB gently and carefully. Dropping it
can damage circuit boards and cases and can
cause the CB to work improperly.
• Keep the CB away from dust and dirt, which can
cause premature wear of parts.
• Wipe the CB with a damp cloth occasionally to
keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemi-
cals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to
clean the CB.
Modifying or tampering with the CB’s internal compo-
nents can cause a malfunction and might invalidate
the CB’s warranty, and void your FCC authorization
to operate it. If your CB is not performing as it should,
take it to your local Radio Shack store for assistance.
