A) Depends on battery in use
Radio Energy Supply
Power can be supplied to the radio via a mains connection or
a lithium-ion rechargeable battery(26).
When the battery is used for power supply, only the func-
tions audio operation and power supply of external devices
via the integrated USB connection are available.
Operation via Mains Connection
u Pay attention to the mains voltage. The voltage of the
power source must match the voltage specified on the
type plate of the radio. Radios marked with 230V can
also be operated with 220V.
Operation with Battery Pack
u Use only the chargers listed in the technical data. Only
these chargers are matched to the lithium-ion re-
chargeable battery of your radio.
Note: The use of rechargeable batteries unsuitable for your
radio can lead to malfunctions or damage to the radio.
The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharge
by "Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)". A protective circuit
switches the radio off when the rechargeable battery is
drained.
u Do not switch the radio back on after it has been
switched off by the protective circuit. This can damage
the battery.
Replacing a Rechargeable Battery
Disengage the locking lever(28) of the battery cover and
open the battery cover(27) flap.
To remove a rechargeable battery, press the battery release
button(25) and pull the rechargeable battery out of the bat-
tery compartment. Do not use force to do this.
To insert a rechargeable battery, push it into the battery
holder(29) such that the connections of the rechargeable
battery are in line with the connections of the battery holder.
Allow the rechargeable battery to engage.
Close the battery cover(27) and lock it.
Battery Charge Indicator
When the rechargeable battery is inserted, you can see the
state of charge of the battery(26) in the display. When the
rechargeable battery is removed, you can see this on the
battery itself.
Battery Charge Indicator in the Display
The battery charge indicator(b) will appear in the display as
soon as a rechargeable battery with sufficient voltage is in-
serted and the radio is not connected to the mains supply.
