Caller ID System 250 (430-0956) Care and Maintenance Faxback Doc. # 7126 Your Radio Shack Caller ID System is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for the module so you can enjoy it for years. Keep the module dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids can contain minerals that corrode electronic circuits. Use and store the module only in normal temperature environments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts. Handle the module gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage the circuit boards and cause the module to work improperly. Wipe the module with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the module. Modifying or tampering with your module's internal components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your module is not performing as it should, take it to your local Radio Shack store for assistance. If the trouble is harming the telephone lines, the telephone company might ask you to disconnnect the module until you have resolved the problem. LIGHTNING This system has built-in protection circuits to reduce the risk of damage from surges in phone and power line current. These protection circuits meet or exceed the FCC requirements. However, lightning striking the phone or power lines can damage the system. Lightning damage is not common. Nevertheless, if you live in an area that has severe electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug the module during storms to reduce the possibility of damage. (br/al-7/7/94)
