Using Dynamo power
Make sure the telescopic antenna is in the rest position before rotating
the dynamo handle.
Take the Dynamo power handle from its rest position.
Rotate the Dynamo power handle approx. 20 rotations per minute,
either clock-wise or counter-clock wise until the charging LED indicator
appears red.
Under normal listening conditions, one minute of charging from
Dynamo power will allow you to listen to the radio for approx. 5-7
minutes (AM band mode using the speaker at a moderate volume
level).
Make sure the handle is in its rest position after charging is completed.
Using solar power
In order to recharge your MMR-88 battery using solar power, position
the radio so that the solar panel receives direct sunlight. The more
direct sunlight that shines on the solar panel, the more electricity it can
generate to power the radio.
Adjust the position of the radio to achieve maximum brightness of the
CHARGE indicator LED.
It takes approx.5 hours to fully charge the battery under direct
sunlight.
