THE FCC WANTS YOU TO
KNOW
This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class B digital de-
vice, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules
.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a res-
idential installation. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications.
Your Model 36 might cause radio or TV interfer-
ence even when it is operating properly. To de-
termine whether your Model 36 is causing the
interference, turn off your Model 36. If the inter-
ference goes away, your Model 36 is causing it.
Try to eliminate the interference by:
• moving your Model 36 away from the
receiver
• connecting your Model 36 to an outlet that
is on a different electrical circuit from the
receiver
• contacting your local RadioShack store for
help.
If you cannot eliminate the interference, the
FCC requires that you stop using your Model 36.
REPLACING THE DC
ADAPTER’S FUSE
If the Model 36 stops operating when the DC
adapter is connected, the fuse in the DC adapter
might be blown. Follow these steps to check and
replace it with a 5-amp, 1

, fast-acting
fuse (RadioShack Cat. No. 270-1011, not sup-
plied).
Caution: Using a fuse that does not meet these
ratings or defeating the fuse protection can
damage your Model 36, the DC adapter, and the
vehicle’s electrical system.
1. Grasp the ring near the tip of the plug, then
carefully unscrew the ring by turning it
counterclockwise.
Caution: If you must use pliers to loosen
the ring, be careful not to crush the tip.
Never use pliers or other tools to retighten
the ring on the plug.
2. Pull the ring straight out, then remove the
metal tip and old fuse.
3. Check the fuse to see if it is blown. If it is,
replace it with a new fuse. If it is not, put the
fuse back into the fuse holder.
4. Replace the metal tip inside the ring, then
place the fuse inside the cigarette-lighter
plug and screw the ring back onto the plug.
Make sure that the metal tip is visible when
you reassemble the cigarette-lighter plug.
