POWER SUPPLY

AC operation

 Before plugging the AC power cord into the AC socket, make sure the voltage is correct and the Battery Select switch is set correctly: ALKALINE when using no batteries or Alkaline batteries / CHARGE NiMH ON when using NiMH rechargeable

batteries.

 If you use alkaline batteries in the radio and the Battery Select switch is on

ALKALINE, the batteries will be disconnected automatically when using AC power

supply.

 If you use rechargeable NiMH batteries in the radio and the Battery Select switch is on CHARGE NIMH ON, the NiMH batteries will be charged automatically when using AC power supply.

 AC power cord and plug storage are designed to store the cord and plug when the radio is not in use or playing on batteries.

Note:

In order to disconnect the unit from the AC mains completely, the AC power cord should be removed from the mains socket completely. The AC power cord shall remain readily operable and should not be obstructed during intended use.

In case of malfunction due to electrostatic discharge or fast transient (burst), remove the power supply and all the batteries then reinstall the batteries and reconnect the power supply.

Battery operation

GB

1. To open the battery compartment, first turn the battery cover fixtures counter clockwise to loosen and open the battery cover.

2. This unit can be operated with either Alkaline batteries (6 x 1,5V type IEC LR6 /

UM-3 / AA-size) or NiMH rechargeable batteries (6 x 1,2V PerfectPro Rechargeable

UM3/AA 2300mAh). Set the Battery Select switch in the battery compartment according to the battery type to be used (ALKALINE or CHARGE NIMH ON).

3. Insert the batteries with correct polarity as indicated in the battery compartment

(+ and -). Close the battery cover and fasten the fixtures by turning clockwise. Close well to prevent moist or dust from entering the compartment.

4. If the unit is not to be used for an extended period of time, it is recommended that the batteries are removed from the radio.

The approximate power level of the batteries is displayed in the LCD display of the radio.

When the power level is very low, the indication “Battery Low!” appears and the battery symbol flashes on the display. The batteries should then be recharged or replaced soon to continue normal operation of the radio.

6

7

When the rechargeable NiMH batteries are being charged. The battery symbol in the

LCD display will animate. The charging and animation will stop automatically when the batteries are full.

Warning:

 Danger of explosion if a battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type.

 Always make sure the Battery Select switch is set to the correct position.

 An Alkaline battery is not rechargeable. Never attempt charging Alkaline batteries.

 Do not mix up different battery types.

 Do not mix up charged and uncharged batteries.

 Do not expose the batteries to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.

 Batteries should not be disposed of by incineration and with household waste.

 Disposable batteries should be taken to a suitable recycling centre if possible.

Note: Charging conditions of the rechargeable batteries and mobile phones

This radio supports recharging of mobile phones from the USB host socket and also supports recharging of rechargeable NiMH batteries. The table below shows how the charging will function when a mobile phone is connected to the USB socket and/or rechargeable NiMH batteries are inserted.

Note:

When the radio is playing a USB stick, due to additional power consumption of this function, the charging of the batteries will stop in order to maintain normal functioning and quality of the USB playback. Once the USB stick is removed normal charging will continue.

Note:

To fully charge the rechargeable NiMH batteries, the radio will need about 7 hours when it is in the quick charge mode, or about 16 hours when it is in slow charge mode.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON CHARGING AND USING

RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES

1. Recharge the batteries in any case at least every 2 months.

2. Make sure the Battery Select switch next the battery compartment is set to the

“CHARGE NiMH ON” position.

3. Put the batteries in the compartment whilst paying attention to the correct polarity of the batteries (+ and -).

4. First use: Charge new batteries in one continuous, uninterrupted, charge until they are full. This first charge may take longer than normal. For longer battery life it is advised to always recharge in one continuous, uninterrupted charge until batteries are full and to not recharge again whilst the batteries are still full.

5. New batteries will only reach their full capacity after some time of use (several charge – discharge cycles).

6. Leave the complete group of batteries in place inside the radio and do not use these batteries or a few of them for other purposes. This will result in a mix of (fully) charged and (partly) empty batteries. This can seriously damage the batteries and radio when recharged.

7. It is advised to only charge batteries at room temperatures between 5 degrees C –

35 degrees C. In lower or higher temperatures full charge cannot be achieved.

8. Depending on the capacity of the batteries, charging from “empty” to “full” can take several hours, even up to 10 hours or more.

9. Do not charge batteries when the radio is hot or exposed to heat or heat sources.

10. It is advised to clean the metal contacts of the batteries and of the charger inside the radio e.g. with a contact-spray from time to time.

11. Do not use a mix of old and new rechargeable batteries.

12. Do not use a mix of rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries.

13. Do not use a mix of full and empty rechargeable batteries.

14. Do not use batteries that have a different mAh capacity.

15. Do not use damaged, deformed or leaking batteries.

16. Battery level indication is an approximate indication only and can vary with battery type used.

17. Batteries can become hot during charging.

18. In cold conditions the capacity of batteries will be much lower than when used at normal room temperature

19. Batteries (even when supplied with the radio), as being consumables, do not fall under the warranty conditions of the radio.

20. It is advised to use Perfectpro rechargeable batteries as the radio and its charger were developed for use with these batteries.
