Electrical requirements
Check the voltage on the rating plate of your radio corresponds with
your house electricity supply, which must be A.C. (alternating current).
If the socket outlets in your home are not suitable for the plug
supplied with this appliance the plug should be removed and the
appropriate one fitted.
WARNING: The plug if severed from the mains lead must be
destroyed, as a plug with a bared flexible cord is hazardous if
engaged into a live socket outlet.
Should the fuse in the 13-amp plug require changing a 3-amp BS
1362 fuse must be fitted.
Power
The radio will work on mains or can be battery operated for portable
use. When the mains connector is fitted the batteries will be
overridden.
Mains supply
Insert the figure-of-eight connector on the mains lead into the mains
input socket, insert the plug into a mains socket and switch the
socket on.
Installing batteries (not supplied)
1 Remove the battery compartment cover (located at the rear).
2 Insert 4 x D batteries as shown by the diagram inside the
compartment being careful to observe polarity. The ribbon will help
in removing the batteries in the future.
3 Replace the battery compartment cover.
IMPORTANT: If the unit is not to be used for a prolonged period,
remove the batteries to avoid battery leakage. In the interests of
environmental safety, dispose of batteries safely.
