Battery operation

1. Remove the battery cover on the back of the unit by sliding the cover

in the direction of the arrow.

2. Insert four LR14 (C size) batteries into the spaces in the compartment.

Take care to ensure all batteries are inserted with the correct polarity as

shown next to the battery compartment. Replace the battery cover.

3. Reduced power, distortion and a ‘stuttering’ sound are all signs that

the batteries may need replacing.

4. 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 Classic 997 is used on

the mains whenever possible with battery operation for occasional or

standby use only.

IMPORTANT: The batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat

such as sunshine, ﬁ 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.
