CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your PRO-2024 is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The following
suggestions will help you care for the PRO-2024 so that you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the PRO-2024 dry. If it does get wet, wipe it dry im¬
mediately. Liquids can contain minerals that can corrode
the electronic circuits.
Handle the PRO-2024 gently and carefully. Dropping it can
damage circuit boards and cases and can cause the prod¬
uct to work inproperly.
Use and store the PRO-2024 only on normal temperature
environments. Extreme temperatures can shorten the life of
electronic devices, damage batteries and distort or melt
plastic parts.
Keep the PRO-2024 away from dust and dirt, which can
cause premature wear of parts.
Wipe the PRO-2024 with a dampened cloth occasionally to
keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning
solvents, or strong detergents to clean the PRO-2024.
Modifying or tampering with the PRO-2024’s internal components can cause a
malfunction and might invalidate the PRO-2024’s warranty. If your PRO-2024 is not
performing as it should, take it to your local Radio Shack store. Our personnel can
assist you and arrange for service if needed.
