You can power the radio from a 9-volt battery or a standard AC outlet.
USING BATTERY POWER
To use battery power, you need a 9-volt battery, such as Radio Shack
Cat. No. 23-553 (not supplied).
Follow these steps to install the battery.
1. Remove the battery compartment cover by pressing down on the cover and
sliding it in the direction of the arrow.
2. Snap the battery connector over the battery contacts.
3. Place the battery in the battery compartment and replace the cover.
NOTE: Remove the battery if you do not plan to use the radio for a week
or more, or if you use AC power. Weak batteries can leak chemicals
and damage the radio.
USING AC POWER
To power your radio from a standard AC outlet, you need an AC adapter
(not supplied), such as Cat. No. 273-1650.
CAUTION: You must use an adapter that supplies 9 volts and delivers at
least 50 milliamps. Its plug must correctly fit the radio's DC
9V jack. Using an adapter that does not meet these
specifications could seriously damage the radio or the adapter.
1. Insert the adapter's 3/32-inch plug tip into the radio's DC 9V jack.
Be sure the tip is set to negative.
2. Plug the adapter into a standard AC outlet.
