Charging the radio
This unit features a built in 1850mAH Lithium rechargeable battery
to power the radio.
Before operating the radio for the first time please fully charge the
battery with a supplied 5V / 500mA AC adaptor.
Carefully insert the adaptor plug into the DC IN socket on the rear of
the radio. Plug the adaptor into a standard mains outlet and the radio
will begin charging the built in battery.
The LED charging indicator next to the DC IN socket will shine bright
red showing charging in progress. When the battery is fully charged,
this LED indicator turns off.
The battery can be charged both while the radio is powered on and
powered off.
Charging time is approx. 5 hours. The battery life is approx. 4-10
hours listening through the speaker and approx 6-15 hours with
headphones. Reduced power, distortion, "stuttering" sounds or battery
power indicator in "low" are all signs that the battery needs to be
recharged. Please note the battery power icon does not display on the
LCD when charging the battery.
IMPORTANT
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.
Safety Note:
Never use charge or operate the radio on AC mains power in
rainy or moist conditions to prevent moist from entering the radio.
Always keep the rubber cover on the back well closed under these
conditions.
Note to battery life:
This is a rough indication only as actual achieved battery life depends
on many factors such as: selected volume, music type (bass heavy
music consumes more energy), selected music source or radio band,
selected EQ settings, temperature and age of the battery.
