Radio

 

 

You can power your radio from:

 

 

Internal battery power, using four AA batteries

Standard AC power, using an optional AC adapter

Vehicle battery power, using an optional DC adapter

USING BATTERIES

You can power your radio from four AA batteries (not supplied). For the best results, we recommend alkaline batteries such as Radio Shack Cat. No. 23-552.

1.Remove the battery compartment cover by sliding it in the direction of the arrow.

2.If necessary, remove the old batteries by pulling the ribbon.

Cautions: To protect the radio from battery leakage, never leave dead, weak, or old batteries in the radio. If you do not plan to use the radio for a month or more, or if you plan to use an AC or DC adapter, remove the batteries.

Always dispose of old batteries promptly and properly.

3.Insert four fresh AA batteries in the compartment as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and -) marked in the compartment.

Cautions: Use only fresh batteries of the required size and type.

Never mix fresh with old batteries.

4.Replace the battery compartment cover.

When you use batteries and the radio does not operate properly or the sound weakens or distorts, replace the batteries.

USING STANDARD AC POWER

You can power your radio from standard AC power using an optional AC adapter, such as Radio Shack Cat. No. 273-1662.
