Battery operation using rechargeable batteries
(also see page 97 and 98)
1. Open the battery cover on the back of the unit by pushing the battery
door in slightly and then downwards in the direction of the arrow.
2. Slide the switch inside the battery compartment to the Rechargeable
NiMH position (left).
3. Insert six identical Rechargeable LR14 (C size) 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. The radio
is designed to be used with Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) rechargeable
batteries.
No other type of rechargeable battery should be used.
4. Plug the mains adaptor into your radio and then plug the adaptor into
the mains.
5. The charge indicator will fl ash green indicating batteries are charging.
Batteries will be fully charged in around 5 - 7 hours. The charge indicator
shows a steady green light when the battery charging is complete.
6. Under some conditions the charging indicator may switch off after
fl ashing only brie fl y.This may happen if the batteries are already freshly
charged, or if the radio detects that you may be attempting to recharge
alkaline batteries. In these cases the charging will be stopped.
If this happens with discharged batteries, try charging the batteries a
second time by removing and reconnecting the AC power adaptor. If
charging is stopped again then it is possible that the batteries are old
and may need to be replaced.
• When the batteries are exhausted, the low battery indicator will show
red for a short while. The radio will then switch itself off. It may not be
possible to switch the radio back on until the batteries are recharged,
or until the radio is connected to the mains adaptor.
• 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.
IMPORTANT:
You should never attempt deliberately to recharge alkaline
batteries in the radio. Attempted recharging of alkaline batteries
can be dangerous.
W hen using rechargeable batteries the battery switch must be
placed in the Rechargeable position. Batteries will only be charged
when the radio is switched off and connected to the AC adaptor.
Batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat such as
sunshine,
fi re or the like. After use, disposable batteries should
if possible be taken to a suitable recycling centre. On no account
should batteries be disposed of by incineration.
