Important Battery
Information

Alkaline or alkaline renewable batteries are
recommended.

Rechargeable batteries may result in shorter
playing time.

Remove batteries if storing the unit for a month or more
to avoid leakage.

Dispose of batteries in the proper manner, according to
federal, state and local regulations.

Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a
different battery type; if inserted incorrectly; if all
batteries are not replaced at the same time; if disposed
of in fire; or if an attempt is made to charge a battery
not intended to be recharged.

Discard leaky batteries immediately to avoid possible skin
burns or other personal injury.

ANTENNAS

The headphone cord serves as the FM antenna. Because this
antenna is directional, repositioning can improve reception.

The built-in AM antenna is somewhat directional. It may be
necessary to slightly rotate the unit to strengthen weak AM
signals.
