For safety reasons, when operating, keep the radio volume at a level that permits hearing sounds outside the vehicle. Water can cause damage, if allowed in the speaker enclosures, radio, cassette player, or remote control unit. Keep water away from these parts. Do not wipe the knobs or buttons, or any other parts, with solvents such as benzene or thinner. Always use a soft, dry cloth (in extreme cases, alcohol may be applied sparingly to the cleaning cloth). WA450-3MC 5-15
