Battery operation
1. Slide the battery cover catch in the direction of the arrow. Open the
battery cover.
2. Fit six LR14 (C size) batteries into the spaces in the compartment.
Take care to ensure all batteries are inserted with the correct polarity
as shown inside the battery compartment. Replace the battery
cover.
3. Reduced power, distortion and a ‘stuttering’ sound are all signs that
the batteries may need replacing. If your CD radio is not to be used
for a prolonged period of time, remove the batteries to avoid damage
by battery leakage.
We would recommend for economy that your CD radio is used on
the mains whenever possible with battery operation for occasional
or stand-by use only.
Mains operation
1. Place your CD radio on a flat surface.
