Keep the phone dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Use and store the phone only in “room”
temperature environments. Handle the phone carefully; do not drop it. Keep the phone away from
dust and dirt, and wipe it with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.
Service and Repair
Service and Repair
If your telephone is not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for
assistance. To locate your nearest RadioShack, use the store locator feature on RadioShack’s
website (www.radioshack.com), or call 1-800-THE SHACK (843-7422) and follow the menu
options. Modifying or tampering with the telephone’s internal components can cause a malfunction
and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it.
