Your Optimus Portable 5 Band Radio is an example of superior design and 
craftsmanship.  The following suggestions will help you care for the radio 
so you can enjoy it for years. 
 
     Keep the radio dry.  If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.  Liquids 
     might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits. 
 
     Use and store the radio only in normal temperature environments.  
     Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices, 
     damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts. 
 
     Keep the radio away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature wear 
     of parts. 
 
     Handle the radio gently and carefully.  Dropping it can damage 
     circuits boards and cases and can cause the radio to work improperly. 
 
     Use only fresh batteries of the required size and type.  Old batteries 
     can leak chemicals that damage your radio's electronic parts. 
 
     Wipe the radio with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.  
     Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to 
     clean the radio. 
 
Modifying or tampering with the radio's internal components can cause a 
malfunction and might invalidate your radio's warranty and void your FCC 
authorization to operate it.  If you radio is not performing as it should, 
take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance.
