2. SAFETY

2.1 Warnings

Follow  all  directions  and  warnings  about  batteries  stated  at  chapter  4.1.  Do  not 

disassemble  the  radio  for  any  reason!  Precision  mechanics  and  electronics  require 

experience  and  specialized  equipment.  The  radio  has  already  been  calibrated  for 

maximum performance.  Unauthorized opening of the transceiver will void the warranty.

 

Do not use detergents, alcohol, solvents, or abrasives to clean the equipment.  Just use 

a soft clean cloth.  If the radio is very dirty, slightly dampen the cloth with a mixture of 

water and a neutral soap.
