Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or heat radiating sources.
Make sure all batteries are inserted according to the proper polarity. Do not mix old batteries with new ones.
If the unit is not used for a long period of time (more than 1 month), remove all batteries from their compartment to avoid possible leaking.
Whilst using the earphones do not operate the emergency alarm.
Using Rechargeable Batteries
Your radio has a built-in power dynamo which can charge the internal rechargeable battery pack and let you play your radio without the AA batteries. When you rotate the crank handle for as little as 11/2 minutes, the dynamo recharges the Ni-MH battery which powers the radio for approx. 30 minutes. Follow these steps to power your radio using dy­namo and the rechargeable battery pack.
1 Remove the battery compartment cover. 2 The supplied Ni-MH battery is installed but not connected. Insert
the battery pack plug into the two pin battery pack socket. Replace the compartment cover.
Caution: The battery pack’s polarized plug fits into the socket only one way. If the plug does not fit properly, turn it round and try again. Do not force it into the socket.
3 Set DYNAMO/BATT switch to DYNAMO or BATT. Charging takes
place using either position. 4 Set On/Off/band selector switch to OFF. 5 Lift the crank handle and rotate it clockwise or counterclockwise.
Radio operation time depends on
the number of turns and the time
per turn. For example,
approximately 2 turns per
second for 90 seconds will
provide about 30 minutes of
radio operation at a medium
volume level. You can recharge
the battery pack even while the
radio plays. 6 Return the crank to the folded position.
Replace the Ni-MH battery when the play time reduces to an unaccept­able level.
1 Remove the battery compartment cover. 2 Unplug the rechargeable battery pack connector and lift the pack
out of the compartment.
! Insert a new battery pack plug into the socket and place the
battery into the compartment.
Caution:The supplied battery pack plug has the red wire toward the top of the radio when inserted correctly. To ensure proper polarity, only use the supplied or recommended replacement battery pack.
4 Replace the compartment cover.
OPERATION
PLAYING THE RADIO 1 Rotate DYNAMO/BATT switch to BATT if you have installed AA
batteries. To power the radio using the Ni-MH pack or the
generator, rotate DYNAMO/BATT switch to DYNAMO. 2 Set On/Off/band selector switch to the desired band. 3 Rotate TUNING control to select the desired station. 4 Adjust VOLUME control to a comfortable listening level. 5 To turn off the radio, set On/Off/band selector switch to OFF.
Using the display light
Hold down LIGHT to illuminate the dial in low-light conditions.
Using the emergency alarm
Press the EMERGENCY ALARM button. The radio sounds a loud, repeating beep. Press EMERGENCY ALARM button again to stop the alarm. Any broadcast stops temporarily when the beep sounds. Note: The emergency alarm takes 4 to 5 seconds to start after the button is pressed.
Using earphones
To listen to the radio privately, connect earphones with a 3.5-mm plug to the jack beneath the rubber flap on the side of the radio. Plugging in earphones disconnects the internal speaker. Stereo earphones can be used, however the output will be mono.
Maintenance
Do not expose your radio to extremes of temperature. The product should be kept in a warm environment free from dust and damp. For external cleaning use only a soft, clean, damp cloth. Use of deter­gents may damage the finish.
