Charging the batteries
Reduced power, distortion and a “stuttering sound” or low battery sign
flashing on the LCD display are all signs that the batteries need
recharged if you use rechargeable batteries to power the radio.
Note:
The radio can be charged only when the radio is off. Connect the AC
power cord into the AC socket to charge the batteries. Be sure the
battery type switch is set to Ni/MH position.
When the batteries are being charged, the red Charge LED will be on.
Charging time can take up to approx. 10 hours depending on the
battery capacity of the rechargeable batteries. When the batteries are
fully charged, the charged LED will be steady on green color.
Note:
Charge new batteries fully the first time before first use. This can take
longer depending on the capacity of the rechargeable batteries.
Do not use a mix of old and new rechargeable batteries.
Do not use a mix of full and empty rechargeable batteries.
Do not use batteries that have a different mAh capacity.
Do not use damaged or leaking batteries.
