CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your TRC-495 40-Channel CB Base Station Transceiver is an example of supe-
rior 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 immediately. Liquids
might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.
Handle the CB gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage cir-
cuit boards and cases and can cause the CB to work improperly.
Use and store the CB only in normal temperature environments.
Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices
and distort or melt plastic parts.
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 chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong de-
tergents to clean the CB.
Modifying or tampering with the CB’s internal components can cause a malfunc-
tion and might invalidate your CB’s warranty. If your CB is not performing as it
should, take it to your local Radio Shack store for assistance.
Warning: Do not open your CB to make any internal adjustments. Any internal
adjustments can be made only by an authorized Radio Shack service center.
