Care AND Maintenance
Your RadioShack BTX-128 VHF/FM Business Band Transceiver is an ex-
ample of superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions
will help you care for your transceiver so you can enjoy it for years.
• Keep the transceiver dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liq-
uids might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.
• Use and store the transceiver 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 transceiver away from dust and dirt, which can cause pre-
mature wear of parts.
• Handle the transceiver gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage
circuit boards and cases and can cause the transceiver to work
improperly.
• Use only a battery pack of the required size and type. Battery packs
can leak chemicals that damage your transceiver’s electronic parts.
• Wipe the transceiver with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it look-
ing new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong
detergents to clean the transceiver.
Modifying or tampering with the transceiver’s internal components can
cause a malfunction and might invalidate your transceiver’s warranty and
void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your transceiver is not per-
forming as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance.
