CARE
To enjoy your joystick for a long time, keep the joystick
dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Use and store
the joystick only in normal temperature environments.
Handle the joystick gently and carefully. Do not drop it.
Keep the joystick away from dust and dirt. Wipe the
joystick with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking
new.
Modifying or tampering with the joystick’s internal
components can cause malfunction and invalidate its
warranty. If your joystick is not performing as it should,
take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance.
