MAINTENANCE 

Your RadioShack CTR-109 AC

²

DC Portable Cassette Recorder is an example of

superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for
your CTR-109 so you can enjoy it for years.

Keep the CTR-109 dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids
might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.

Handle the CTR-109 gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage
circuit boards and cases and can cause the CTR-109 to work improp-
erly.

Use and store the CTR-109 only in normal temperature environ-
ments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic de-
vices and distort or melt plastic parts.

Keep the CTR-109 away from dust and dirt, which can cause prema-
ture wear of parts.

Wipe the CTR-109 with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking
new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong deter-
gents to clean the CTR-109.

Modifying or tampering with the CTR-109’s internal components can cause a mal-
function and might invalidate your CTR-109’s warranty. If your CTR-109 is not per-
forming as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance.
