When to replace the batteries
Replace all three batteries with new ones when the
OPR/BATT (operation/battery) indicator goes out. As the
batteries become drained, the OPR/BATT indicator may
gradually grow dimmer before it goes out or static from
the radio may grow louder. Although you may still be able
to use the radio for a while in this state, please replace
the batteries as soon as possible.
Notes on batteries
• Do not mix an old battery with a new one or mix
different type of batteries.
• When you are not going to use the unit for a long time,
remove the batteries to avoid damage from battery
leakage and corrosion.
• Check if the batteries are inserted in the correct
orientation ( and ) when the radio does not turn on
after battery replacement.
• Batteries have a recommended use-by date for proper
use. When using expired batteries, battery life will be
extremely short. Check the use-by date on the batteries
and if they are expired, replace them with new ones.
If the battery compartment cover comes off
Insert the right hook tab
of the lid into the right
hole, then put the left
hook tab on the edge of
the opening and slide it
slowly until it fits into
the left hole.
If you have any questions or problems concerning your
unit, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
