CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your RadioShack TRC-503 40 Channel Mobile CB Radio 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 immediately. Liquids might con-
tain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.
Use and store the CB only in normal temperature environments. Tempera-
ture 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.
Handle the CB gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage circuit boards
and cases and can cause the CB to work improperly.
Wipe the CB with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new. Do not
use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the
CB.
Modifying or tampering with the CB’s internal components can cause a malfunction
and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your
CB is not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assis-
tance.
