Low Battery Warning and Auto Shutoff

When the 6 “AA” main power batteries that operate the radio and iPod® become too weak for normal

operation the Low Battery Indicator will begin to flash in the display.

This is your indication that it's time to replace the 6 “AA” batteries. Approximately 90 seconds after the Low Battery Indicator begins flashing the system will shut off automatically.

NOTE: The Low Battery Warning Indicator only applies to the 6 “AA” main power batteries that operate the radio and the iPod® , not the 2 “AA” back-up batteries for the clock and tuner memories. The 6 main power batteries should be changed when the low battery warning indicator begins flashing. The 2 back-up batteries should be changed approximately every 12 months.

Battery Precautions

•Replacement of batteries must be done by an adult.

•Do not mix old and new batteries.

•Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or rechargeable (nickel-cadmium) batteries.

•The supply terminals are not to be short-circuited.

•Non-rechargeable batteries are not to be recharged.

•Exhausted batteries are to be removed.

•Only batteries of the equivalent type are to be used.

•Batteries are to be inserted with the correct polarity.

•Dispose of batteries properly. Do not dispose of batteries in fire. The batteries may explode or leak.
