READ BEFORE OPERATING EQUIPMENT
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
To prevent damage to your radio or possible injury to you or others, read these safety precau-
tions and instructions entirely before applying power to your radio. Keep these precautions and
instructions where all who use this radio will read them.
1)
COMMON CARE
Check the radio, AC adapter, batteries and any accessories regularly. Do not use the radio if there
is any sign of damage. Only operate in accordance with the instructions in this manual. Only use
attachments or accessories specified by the manufacturer.
2)
BATTERY CHARGING
Battery charging can be dangerous and can cause batteries to overheat and explode and/or leak.
THIS RADIO HAS A CHARGING CIRCUIT for both AA and D size batteries.
NEVER CHARGE
ALKALINE BATTERIES OR other non-rechargeable batteries.
Pressing the “MEMORY/CHARGE”
button on the front of the radio while the radio is connected to the AC Adapter will start the charging
process! See BATTERY CHARGING (page 13) for proper operation of the charging circuit.
3)
PROPER BATTERY HANDLING
Never mix different type of batteries or use old batteries with new. This may cause the batteries to
leak or explode. Dead batteries are prone to leakage. Remove the batteries when no charge
remains. Orientate the batteries correctly in the unit according to the diagram. Do not store batteries
with metal objects like paper clips. We recommend you remove batteries from the radio if you are
not going to use the radio for one month or more.
4)
DISCONNECT THE RADIO IN CASE OF MALFUNCTION
If you smell or notice smoke, disconnect the AC adapter and remove the batteries immediately
taking care to avoid burns. Contact C. Crane Company or their representative for inspection and
service before any future operation. Only use the AC adapter supplied with the unit and replace it if
wires become frayed or exposed.
5)
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
The radio is heavy, especially when batteries are installed. Use only on a stable level surface.
Dropping the radio can cause damage or injury. Keep the AC Adapter cord in a position so some-
one cannot trip and cause the radio to fall.
6)
KEEP AWAY FROM WATER AND MOISTURE
Keep the radio dry. Liquids and moisture can damage the radio. If a liquid leaks into the radio do
not operate and seek a qualified service shop. To clean radio, remove the power and use a damp
cloth on the exterior only.
7)
KEEP AWAY FROM EXTREME TEMPERATURES
Extreme temperatures can damage the radio. Do not leave or use the radio where it can be
subjected to high or very cold temperatures.
8)
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SERVICE RADIO
Refer all service work to a qualified service shop when the radio does not appear to operate
normally, exhibits a change in performance or the radio has received damage. Never open the radio
as this may expose you to dangerous voltages and this will void all warranties.
9)
OUTSIDE ANTENNAS OR CABLES
Outside antennas or cables should not be used with this radio unless installed by
qualified personnel.
