Installing Batteries
Your radio requires 3 AAA alkaline batteries for power. For the best performance
and longest life, we recommend RadioShack batteries.
Cautions:
§ Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.
§ Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (alkaline or
rechargeable).
1. Rotate VOL/OFF counterclockwise until it clicks to turn off the radio.
2. Use a Philips screwdriver to loosen the screws in the battery door, then lift the
door off.
3. Install 3 AAA batteries according to the polarity symbols (+ and -) marked
inside.
4. Replace the cover and then rotate VOL/OFF clockwise until it clicks to turn on
the radio.
5. The battery indicator [ ] on the bottom of the LCD display shows how
much power remain. The battery indicator displayed the battery power in 4
levels:
[ ] Battery full
[ ] Below 70% battery capacity
[ ] Below 30% battery capacity
[ ] (Blinking) Battery depleted
Warning:
Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury them.
Caution:
If you do not plan to use the radio for a month or longer, remove the batteries. Batteries
can leak chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.
