POWER SUPPLY
AC operation
Before plugging the AC power cord into the AC socket, be sure the voltage is correct.
If you have batteries in the radio and using the AC power supply, the batteries will
automatically be disconnect.
AC power cord storage is designed to store the cord when the radio is not in use.
Note
: In order to disconnect the unit from the mains completely, the AC plug should be
removed from the mains socket completely.
Battery operation
1. To open the battery compartment, first turn the battery cover fixtures anti-clockwise
to loosen and pull down the battery cover.
2. Insert 4 x D size (UM-1) battery with the correct polarity into the compartment. Close
the battery cover and fasten the fixtures by turning clockwise. Close well to prevent
moist or dust from entering the compartment.
3. If the unit is not to be used for any extended period of time, it is recommended that
the batteries are removed from the radio.
The approximate power level of the batteries is displayed in the LCD display of the radio.
When the power level is very low the indication “Battery Low!” appears and the battery
symbol flashes on the display. The batteries should then be replaced soon to continue
normal operation of the radio.
Back up battery (2 x AA size compartment located underneath the larger
battery compartment)
Back up battery is to back up the clock.
It is necessary to insert back up battery (2 x AA size / UM-3) for memory back up
even if you use AC power supply only. Without the back up battery, time will get lost
if you remove the AC power cord from AC socket or during power failure.
Notes:
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or
equivalent type.
Do not expose the batteries to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.
Batteries should not be disposed of by incineration and with household waste.
Disposable batteries should be taken to a suitable recycling centre if possible.
