If it is used in temperatures lower than this range, the numbers displayed may change very slowly. (These irregularities will disappear and there will be no damage to the unit when the unit is used in the recommended temperature range.) The nameplate indicating operating voltage, etc. is located on the rear exterior. Avoid exposure to temperature extremes, direct sunlight, moisture, sand, dust or mechanical shock. Never leave in a car parked in the sun. Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit, disconnect the AC power adaptor and remove the batteries, and have the unit checked by a qualified personnel before operating it any further. In vehicles or buildings, radio reception may be difficult or noisy. Try listening near a window.
