WARNING!!! WARNING!!! WARNING!!!!

PLEASE read this section in detail for important warnings and notices.

USE ONLY THE SUPPLIED TRANSMITTER ANTENNA!
Using any antenna other than the one supplied for use with your PX Transmitter is a violation of Federal Law and may actually
cause damage to the radio inside the transmitter. This will also promptly void your warranty. Your PX Transmitter has been
carefully tuned to broadcast the maximum signal strength allowable by law. Altering the antenna characteristics is more
likely to “de-tune” or degrade performance than to improve it.

INSERT THE BATTERY IN THE CORRECT DIRECTION!
Inserting the batteries “backwards” could possibly damage the electronic components inside PX Transmitter and PX Receiver
units. The little “bump” on the AAA always points away from the spring. A graphic is provided at the base of the AAA battery
holder, as well as on the back side of the circuit board for reference. Further, you should observe for the Green Power LED
blinking a few times about one second after you insert the battery - indicating proper insertion.

DO NOT REMOVE OR TAMPER WITH THE CIRCUIT BOARD!
Some of the components inside your PX Transmitters and PX Receivers are especially susceptible to electrostatic shock (they’re
easily ‘zapped’ by static electricity) - just touching them could damage them. Your circuit board is grounded to the case - as
long as it’s not removed everything is safe. Breaking the glue seal and removing or tampering with your circuit board will
promptly void your warranty.

YOUR POPPERS CAN’T SWIM!! KEEP THEM DRY!!
The new splash-proof design of the PX goes a long way to keeping the wet stuff out. However, they are *not* “waterproof”.
Don’t use them outside in the rain, to photograph objects under water, or in any other environment that may allow water to
enter the physical enclosure or battery area.

If you dunk them, it may be too late. Should you do manage to expose a RadioPopper to anything wet, remove the batteries
as quickly as possible and allow it 24 hours to dry. You may find it has come back to life. Allowing anything wet inside the
case of your PX Transmitter or PX Receiver will promptly void the warranty.
