CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your RadioShack DX-398 All-Band Shortwave Receiver with Radio Data
System is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The following
suggestions will help you care for your receiver so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the receiver dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liq-
uids might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic cir-
cuits.
Use and store the receiver only in normal temperature environ-
ments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic
devices, damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.
Keep the receiver away from dust and dirt, which can cause pre-
mature wear of parts.
Handle the receiver gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage
circuit boards and cases and can cause the receiver to work im-
properly.
Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended
type. Batteries can leak chemicals that damage your receiver’s
electronic parts.
Wipe the receiver with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking
new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong de-
tergents to clean the receiver.
Modifying or tampering with the receiver’s internal components can cause a
malfunction and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authoriza-
tion to operate it. If your receiver is not performing as it should, take it to your
local RadioShack store for assistance.
