Thank you for purchasing the RadioShack BuzzBuggs FRS Radio with 14
Channels. Family Radio Service (FRS) is a license-free, two-way, short-
range voice radio service that lets you communicate on channels. The
walkie talkie has 14 channels and auto-squelch. It provides clear
communication for over half a mile, and its lightweight, handheld design and
the attached plastic clip let you conveniently carry it almost anywhere. It is
appropriate for ages 8 and up.

• Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury
them.
• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.
• Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (standard,
alkaline or rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of different
capacities.
• If you do not plan to use the walkie talkie for a month or longer, remove
the batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals that can destroy electronic
parts.

Keep the walkie talkie dry; if it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Use and
store the walkie talkie only in normal temperature environments (not
extreme hot or cold temperatures). Handle the walkie talkie carefully. Wipe it
with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new. If your walkie talkie is
not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for
assistance.

Do not open your walkie talkie to make internal adjustments. It is set up to
transmit a regulated signal on one of 14 assigned frequencies. It is illegal to
alter or adjust the settings inside the walkie talkie to exceed those
limitations. Any adjustments to your walkie talkie must be made by a
qualified technician using the proper test equipment. To be safe:
• Never open your walkie talkie’s case.
• Never change or replace anything in your walkie talkie except the
batteries.
Your walkie talkie contains a low power transmitter. When Tis pressed,
radio frequency (RF) signals are emitted. The device is authorized to
operate at a duty factor not to exceed 50%. In August 1996, the Federal
Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with
safety levels for handheld wireless devices. To maintain compliance with the
FCC’s RF exposure guidelines hold the transmitter and antenna at least 1
inch (2.5 cm) from your face and speak in a normal voice, with the antenna
pointed up and away from your face. Unauthorized antennas, modifications,
or attachments could damage the transmitter and may violate FCC
regulations.

This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules
. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules
. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to walkie talkie
communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to walkie
talkie or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult your local RadioShack store or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
• If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop
using your walkie talkie.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by RadioShack may
cause interference and void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.#

replaced parts and products, and products on which a refund is made, become the property of RadioShack. New or reconditioned parts and products may be used in the performance of warranty ser-
vice. Repaired or replaced parts and products are warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period. You will be charged for repair or replacement of the product made after the expiration of
the warranty period.
This warranty does not cover: (a) damage or failure caused by or attributable to acts of God, abuse, accident, misuse, improper or abnormal usage, failure to follow instructions, improper installation or
maintenance, alteration, lightning or other incidence of excess voltage or current; (b) any repairs other than those provided by a RadioShack Authorized Service Facility; (c) consumables such as fuses
or batteries; (d) cosmetic damage; (e) transportation, shipping or insurance costs; or (f) costs of product removal, installation, set-up service adjustment or reinstallation.
