INSTALLING BATTERIES
Your radio uses three AA batteries for power. For the
best performance and longest life, we recommend
RadioShack alkaline batteries.
Warning: Dispose of old batteries promptly and prop-
erly; do not bury or burn them.
Cautions:
• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and
recommended type.
• Do not use rechargeable batteries in your Weath-
eradio.
• Never leave weak or dead batteries in the radio.
They can leak chemicals that can damage the
radio.
• If you do not plan to use your radio for several
weeks, remove the batteries.
