Charging the batteries
Battery operation
● Duration for charging your batteries fully can vary according to the mAh capacity of the
batteries. Higher mAh batteries require a longer charging time.
● When the batteries are exhausted, the battery light will show red for a short while.The radio will
then switch itself off. It may not be possible to switch the radio back on until the batteries are
recharged, or until the radio is connected to the mains adaptor.
● Under some conditions the charging LED indicator may switch off after flashing briefly. This
may happen if the batteries are already freshly charged, or if the radio detects that you may be
attempting to recharge alkaline batteries or mixed different types or capacity of rechargeable
battery. In these cases the charging will be stopped.
NOTE
The mains adaptor is used as the means of connecting the radio to the mains supply. The mains
socket used for the radio must remain accessible during normal use. In order to disconnect the
radio from the mains completely, the mains adaptor should be removed from the mains socket
outlet completely.
IMPORTANT
Using the AC power adaptor
The AC power adaptor required for this unit should be 7.5 volts DC at 0.8A center pin positive. Insert
the adaptor plug into the DC socket on the left side of the radio. Plug the adaptor into a standard mains
socket outlet.
Whenever the adaptor is used, the batteries are automatically disconnected. The AC adaptor should
be disconnected from the main supply when not in use.
