AC operation
Before plugging the AC power cord into the AC socket, make sure the voltage is
correct and the Battery Select switch is set correctly: ALKALINE when using no
batteries or Alkaline batteries / CHARGE NiMH ON when using NiMH rechargeable
batteries.
If you use alkaline batteries in the radio and the Battery Select switch is on
ALKALINE, the batteries will be disconnected automatically when using AC power
supply.
If you use rechargeable NiMH batteries in the radio and the Battery Select switch
is on CHARGE NIMH ON, the NiMH batteries will be charged automatically when
using AC power supply.
AC power cord and plug storage are designed to store the cord and plug when the
radio is not in use or playing on batteries.
Note:
In order to disconnect the unit from the AC mains completely, the AC power cord should
be removed from the mains socket completely. The AC power cord shall remain readily
operable and should not be obstructed during intended use.
In case of malfunction due to electrostatic discharge or fast transient (burst), remove the
power supply and all the batteries then reinstall the batteries and reconnect the power
supply.
Battery operation
1. To open the battery compartment, first turn the battery cover fixtures counter
clockwise to loosen and open the battery cover.
2. This unit can be operated with either Alkaline batteries (6 x 1,5V type IEC LR6 /
UM-3 / AA-size) or NiMH rechargeable batteries (6 x 1,2V PerfectPro Rechargeable
UM3/AA 2300mAh). Set the Battery Select switch in the battery compartment
according to the battery type to be used (ALKALINE or CHARGE NIMH ON).
3. Insert the batteries with correct polarity as indicated in the battery compartment
(+ and -). Close the battery cover and fasten the fixtures by turning clockwise. Close
well to prevent moist or dust from entering the compartment.
4. If the unit is not to be used for an extended period of time, it is recommended that
the batteries are removed from the radio.
The approximate power level of the batteries is displayed in the LCD display of the
radio.
When the power level is very low, the indication “Battery Low!” appears and the battery
symbol flashes on the display. The batteries should then be recharged or replaced soon
to continue normal operation of the radio.
