SECTION 9—CARE OF THE RAPTOR RP-1

9. CARE OF THE RAPTOR RP-1
The Raptor RP-1 radar system is designed for long reliable
use by law enforcement agencies. Following basic care
guidelines will ensure the unit gives many years of trouble-
free service.
9.0 ROUTINE CARE
1. Use a damp cloth to clean the outside of the radar unit if
it becomes dirty. DO NOT use excessive water or any
cleaners or sprays on the outer surfaces of the unit or
remote control.
2. As with all electrical or electronic equipment, protect
the unit from water. While all parts are weather
resistant, the processing unit and remote control are not
waterproof. If any liquid should get inside, remove
power immediately and send the unit in to a repair
facility. Prompt action can minimize any damage.
3. If the Raptor RP-1 is used outside in rain or snow, it
should be wiped dry with a clean cloth as soon as
practical.
4. There are no user serviceable parts inside the Raptor
RP-1. All major circuit boars (main processing,
display, antenna) have over-current protection by
automatically resetting fuses. There is one main fuse
located in the end of the cigarette lighter plug. If
needed, simply unscrew the tip and replace with the
same size fuse.
5. Do not pick up or carry the Raptor RP-1 by the power
or remote control cables. Broken power, antenna, and
remote control cables are a common cause of
intermittent operation.
