To partially charge the battery, turn OFF the radio with the Band Selecting Knob, select the DYNAMO position with the power selector switch and turn the crank at two turns per second, for 90 seconds; the radio will play at low volume for about 5 minutes, then crank again. Turn the radio on with the Band Selecting Knob.

USING THE SOLAR PANEL TO RECHARGE THE Ni-MH BATTERY Charging with solar charges the Ni-MH rechargeable battery. Turn the radio OFF with the Band Selecting Knob. Select SOLAR with the Power Supply Knob. Place the radio in direct sunlight (not through a window or in the shade), with the sun shining directly on the solar panel. After a few minutes of charging you may be able to play the radio while it’s charging by turning it on with the Band selection Knob; if not, give it a little more time to 3 charge.
