BATTERIES 
Your radio requires three AAA bat-
teries for power. For the best per-
formance and longest life, we
recommend RadioShack batteries. 
Cautions:
 
• Use only fresh batteries of the
required size and recommend-
ed type. 
• Do not mix old and new batter-
ies, different types of batteries
(standard, alkaline, or re-
chargeable), or rechargeable
batteries of different capacities. 
1. Rotate
 VOLUME/OFF 
fully coun-
terclockwise to turn off the ra-
dio, then slide the battery
compartment cover off in the
direction of the arrow.
