CARE
Your Radio Shack TRC-232 4-Watt 40-Channel CB Walkie-
Talkie is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The
following suggestions will help you care for the CB radio so you
can enjoy it for years.
• Keep the walkie-talkie dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immedi-
ately. Liquids can contain minerals that can corrode the
electronic circuits.
• Handle the walkie-talkie gently and carefully. Dropping it
can damage circuit boards and cases and can cause the
walkie-talkie to work improperly.
• Use and store the walkie-talkie in normal temperature envi-
ronments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of
electronic devices, damage batteries, and distort or melt
plastic parts.
• Keep the walkie-talkie away from dust and dirt, which can
cause premature wear of parts.
• Wipe the walkie-talkie with a damp cloth occasionally to
keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning
solvents, or strong detergents to clean the walkie-talkie.
Modifying or tampering with the CB radio’s internal components
can cause a malfunction and might invalidate the CB radio’s
warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your
CB radio is not performing as it should, take it to your local Radio
Shack store for assistance.
