(also see page 72)
1. Slide the battery cover located underneath the unit in the direction of the
arrow and lift upwards.
2. Slide the switch inside the battery compartment to the Alkaline position (as
shown).
3. Insert six 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 battery compartment cover. 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.
4. The low battery indicator showing red, reduced power, distortion and a
‘stuttering’ sound are all signs that the batteries may need replacing. 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 iStream 3 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, see page 8.
IMPORTANT: The batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat
such as sunshine, re or the like. After use, disposable batteries should
if possible be taken to a suitable recycling centre. On no account
should batteries be disposed of by incineration.
Caution: Replace batteries only with the same or equivalent type. Danger
of explosion if the batteries are incorrectly replaced.
