1.Remove the battery cover on the back of the unit by pushing the battery door in slightly and then downwards in the direction of the arrows in the diagram.

2.Slide the switch inside the battery compartment to the Alkaline position.

3.Insert three LR6 (AA size) alkaline batteries into the spaces in the compartment. Take care to ensure all batteries are inserted with the correct polarity as shown on the back of the radio. Then replace the battery cover.

•Important: when using alkaline batteries the battery switch must be placed in the alkaline position. Failure to do so could result in serious damage to the batteries or radio.

•When the batteries are exhausted, the battery light will show red for a short while. The radio will then switch itself off. It may not be possible to switch the radio back on until the batteries are replaced, or until the radio is connected to the mains adaptor.

•If the radio is not to be used for any extended period of time it is recommended that the batteries are removed from the radio.

•We would recommend for economy that the solarDAB 2 is used via the AC adaptor whenever possible with battery operation for occasional or stand-by use only. If extended listening using batteries is anticipated, then the use of rechargeable batteries is recommended.
