CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your PRO-2045 200-Channel Direct
Entry Programmable Scanner is an
example of superior design and crafts-
manship. The following suggestions
will help you care for the PRO-2045 so
you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the scanner dry. If
it gets wet, wipe it dry
immediately. Liquids
can contain minerals
that can corrode the
electronic circuits.
Handle the scanner
gently and carefully.
Dropping it can damage
circuit boards and cas-
es and can cause the
scanner to work im-
properly.
Use and store the scan-
ner only in normal tem-
perature environments.
Temperature extremes
can shorten the life of
electronic devices and
distort or melt plastic
parts.
Keep the scanner away
from dust and dirt,
which can cause pre-
mature wear of parts.Wipe the scanner with a
damp cloth occasional-
ly to keep it looking
new. Do not use harsh
chemicals, cleaning
solvents, or strong de-
tergents to clean the
scanner.
Modifying or tampering with your
scanner’s internal components can
cause a malfunction and might invali-
date the scanner’s warranty and void
your FCC authorization to operate it. If
your scanner is not operating as it
should, take it to your local Ra-
dioShack store for assistance.
