Using the AC adaptor
Your solarDAB radio may be powered either by using an AC adaptor (supplied) or by using solar power.
For prolonged life, the internal rechargeable NiMH battery pack requires an external conditioning charge of 24 hours prior to fi rst use.
1.Place your radio on a fl at surface.
2.Insert the adaptor plug into the DC socket located on the rear of your radio.
3.Plug the adaptor into a standard 13 amp mains socket outlet. The display will show the on charge indicator and the battery indicator will be animated.
4.When the batteries are fully charged, the battery indicator should show all segments without fl ashing. Remember to keep the adaptor connected for a period of 24 hours for the initial charge in order to ensure optimal conditioning of the batteries.
The AC adaptor should be disconnected from the mains supply and the radio when not in use.
Note: The mains adaptor which is supplied with your radio is a high- effi ciency type, designed to minimise energy consumption, whether the radio is playing, charging its batteries, or switched off (in standby). Do not use any other mains adaptor in place of the unit supplied. Such use will invalidate your guarantee.
IMPORTANT: The mains adaptor is used as the means of connecting the radio to the mains supply. The mains socket used for the radio must remain accessible during normal use. In order to disconnect the radio from the mains completely, the mains adaptor should be removed from the mains socket outlet completely.
