Charging your radio
The features a built-in 1850mAh rechargeable
Lithium battery to power your radio. Before operating
the radio for the first time, ensure that you fully charge
the radio.
1. Place your radio on a flat surface. Carefully pull
back the protection cover and insert the adaptor
plug into the Charging socket marked ‘DC In’ on
the rear of your radio.
2. Plug theadaptorintoa standardmainssocketoutlet.
The radio will begin charging the built-in battery.
During this time the LED charging indicator next to
the charging socket will light brightly. Charging will
take up to 4 hours. The radio can only be charged
when the radio is switched off.
3. Charging is completed when the battery is fully
charged. The LED charging indicator will then
change from the bright level to very much dimmer
level. It will remain at the dim level while the charger
is connected to the radio and to the mains. The
battery power icon will not be displayed on the
LCD when charging.
4. Reduced power, distortion, ‘stuttering’ sounds or
the low battery power indicator are all signs that
the battery needs to be recharged.

Note: The mains adaptor which is supplied with your
radio is a high efficiency type, designed to minimise
energy consumption, whether the radio is playing,
charging its battery or switched off. Do not use any
other mains adaptor in place of the unit supplied.
Such use will invalidate your guarantee.
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.
The AC adaptor
should be
disconnected
from the mains
supply and the
radio when not
in use.

Note: Never use, charge or operate the radio in rainy or
moist conditions to prevent moisture entering the radio.
