Use Radio with Care

To ensure safety, always keep the sound to a level where it is possible to hear outside sounds during operation. If water gets into the speaker case or radio, it may lead to an unexpected failure, so be careful not to get water on the equipment. Do not wipe the scales or buttons with solvent such as benzene or thinner. Wipe with a dry soft cloth. If the dirt cannot be removed easily, soak the cloth with alcohol. When the battery is replaced, the settings for the preset buttons are all cleared, so set them again.
