TRC-401 Portable Emergency CB Radio
(210-1588) Care and Maintenance Faxback Doc. # 47608
Your TRC-401 Emergency CB Radio is an example of superior design and
craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for your
TRC-401 so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the TRC-401 dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids
might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.
Handle the TRC-401 gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage circuit
boards and cases and can cause the TRC-401 to work improperly.
Keep the TRC-401 away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature wear
of parts.
Wipe the TRC-401 with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to
clean the TRC-401.
Modifying or tampering with the TRC-401's internal components can cause a
malfunction and might invalidate your TRC-401's warranty and void your FCC
authorization to operate it. If your TRC-401 is not performing as it
should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance.
REPLACING THE POWER CORD'S FUSE
The power cord's 2-amp fuse helps protect your CB from power surges and
short circuits. If the fuse is blown, replace it with a 2-amp, 250-volt,
fast-acting fuse (Cat. No. 270-1052).
Follow these steps to replace the fuse.
1. Unplug the power cord from the vehicle's cigarette-lighter and the CB.
2. To open the cigarette-lighter plug and remove the fuse, turn the cap
counterclockwise and remove it. (Take care not to lose the tip.)
3. If the fuse is blown, replace it.
CAUTION: Make sure you replace the fuse only with another fuse of the
same type and rating.
4. To close the cigarette-lighter plug, replace the cap and turn it
clockwise.
