DO YOU NEED HELP?

Thank you for purchasing the FR300 AM/FM/NOAA-WEATHER/ VHF- TV radio – a perfect ‘emergency’ radio, a great radio for daily use and a portable cell phone charger when other charging methods are out of reach. Its unique design allows it to be powered from a variety of sources: 1.) From the built-in rechargeable Ni-MH battery that takes charge from the dynamo crank and from an AC adaptor (AC adaptor not included); 2.) From 3 AA batteries; 3.) From the

AC adaptor alone (AC adaptor not included); 4.) From the dynamo crank alone, even with no battery pack installed.
