When the radio turns off unexpectedly

When you set the Auto Power OFF function to ON, the radio turns off automatically approximately after 120 minutes to prevent unnecessary wear of the batteries. To listen to the radio continuously, press POWER.

If the radio does not turn on after pressing POWER, or if the radio turns off unrelated to the Auto Power OFF feature, the batteries are exhausted.

Replace both batteries with new ones.

To set this function see “To set the Auto Power OFF” (page 21) under “Setting the Functions” (page 20).

Using External Power Sources

You can connect the following external power sources through the DC IN 3 V jack located on the left side of the unit. (When you plug a cord into the DC IN 3 V jack, the internal batteries are automatically bypassed.)

•House current using a Sony AC-E30HG (not supplied) AC power adaptor•12/24 V car battery using a Sony DCC-E230 (not supplied) car battery cord

Notes

•When operating the unit with an external power source, do not remove the batteries in the battery compartment which serve as a backup of the memory.

•Use only the recommended AC power adaptor or car battery cord manufactured by Sony. The polarity of the plugs of other manufacturers may be different.
