SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 

Do not use outside with charger.

Allow a 3cm clearance around the radio housing when
in use.

Inside the radio there are non-user serviceable parts.

High volume listening through headphones can 
damage hearing. 

Do not unscrew the casing or any other parts. This will
invalidate your warranty and is dangerous.

When using batteries ensure the battery selector switch
is set correctly for the type of batteries you are using.

Do not use the radio charger if the power cord is 
defective.

Always unplug the mains supply cord prior to cleaning
the radio and inserting or removing batteries.

Never use liquid or aerosol cleaners or abrasive brushes
to clean the radio.

To reduce the risk of fire or shock, do not expose the 
radio or charger to water or moisture.

This radio must not be cleaned with a water jet.

It must not be exposed to steam or sand.
