Battery operation using alkaline batteries
1. Remove the battery cover on the back of the unit by sliding the cover
in the direction of the arrow.
2. Insert six LR6 (AA size) alkaline batteries into the spaces in the
compartment. Take care to ensure all batteries are inserted with the
correct polarity as shown inside the battery compartment.
3. Slide the battery switch to the Alkaline position and then replace the
battery cover.
Important: when using alkaline batteries the battery switch must
be placed in the alkaline position. Failure to do so could result
in serious damage to the batteries or radio.
Reduced power, distortion and a 'tuttering' sound are all signs that
the batteries may need replacing.
If the radio is not to be used for any extended period of time it is
recommended that the batteries are removed from the radio.
We would recommend for economy that the radio is used via the
AC adaptor whenever possible with battery operation for occasional
or stand-by use only. If extended listening using batteries is
anticipated, then the use of rechargeable batteries is recommended.

1. Remove the battery cover on the back of the unit by sliding the cover
in the direction of the arrow.

the compartment. Take care to ensure all batteries are inserted with
the correct polarity as shown inside the battery compartment.
The radio is designed to be used with Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH)
rechargeable batteries.
3. Slide the battery switch to the Rechargeable position and then
replace the battery cover.
