1.  Remove the battery cover on the back of the unit by sliding the cover 
in the direction of the arrow.
2.  Slide the switch inside the battery compartment to the NiMH posi-
tion.
3.  Insert four Rechargeable LR6 (AA size) batteries into the spaces in 
the compartment. Take care to ensure all batteries are inserted with 
the correct polarity as shown on the back of the radio. The radio is 
designed to be used with Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) rechargeable 
batteries.
4.  Plug the mains adaptor into your radio and then plug the adaptor into 
the mains.
5.  The battery light will fl ash green indicating batteries are charging. Bat-
teries will be fully charged in around 7 hours. The battery light shows 
a steady green light when the battery charging is complete.

Important: when using rechargeable batteries the battery switch 
must be placed in the NiMH position. Batteries will only be charged 
when the radio is switched off and connected to the AC adap-
tor.
• 
When the batteries are exhausted, the battery light will show red for a 
short while. The radio will then switch itself off. It may not be possible 
to switch the radio back on until the batteries are recharged, or until 
the radio is connected to the mains adaptor.
• 
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.
 
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.
