AC power

Plug the power supply cord into the AC power jack on the back of the unit, and into an AC power supply outlet that accepts the plug supplied with your unit.

•Open the battery compartment door on the bottom of the unit by pressing down on the tab and pulling out the cover.

•Before inserting the batteries, observe the polarities (that is, + and -) of the battery, then relate the polarities to the engraved diagram located on the battery compartment door. Insert batteries in the battery compartment.

Note that the AC line cord must be unplugged from the jack on the back of the unit to operate on batteries.

Important battery information

•Remove the batteries to avoid leakage if you do not use your system for more than one month.

•Discard leaky batteries immediately as leaking batteries may cause skin burns or other personal injuries. Dispose of batteries in the proper manner, according to provincial and local regulations.

•Any battery may leak electrolyte under the following circumstances:

-if mixed with a different battery type,

-if inserted incorrectly,

-if all batteries are not replaced at the same time,

-if disposed of in fire, or

-if an attempt is made to charge a battery not intended to be recharged

•Be sure to remove batteries when storing the set for more than 30 days. Leaky batteries can badly damage the system. Be sure to dispose of leaky, weak or dead batteries properly according to federal, state, and local regulations. To prevent injury or damage, do not reverse batteries and do not mix battery type.

The Weather transmission, broadcast 24 hours a day, are taped messages that are repeated every 4 to 6 minutes and revised and updated as needed to match the changing weather conditions. For additional information, check your location office of the National Weather Service (Department of Commerce).

Important: The listening range of NOAA weather stations varies from 10 miles up to a maximum of 40 miles from the station’s transmitter. In some areas of the United States, weather transmissions cannot be monitored. The effective range of this radio will have side variations due to the height of the local transmitting antenna, atmospheric conditions, and the terrain between the transmitter and your radio’s location.
