1. AC Operation
The AC/DC switch (at the back of the unit) controls the power supply. Be sure AC/DC switch is
in the proper position. AC for household current; DC for battery and 12-Volt adapter current.
2. Battery Installation
3. 12-Volt Car Adapter Operation: (Adapter Not Included)
Insert four D size batteries in the battery compartment. Be sure that the batteries are inserted
correctly to avoid damage to the unit. Always remove them when the unit will not be used for a
long period of time, as this will cause leakage and subsequent damage to your set. The Tuning/
Battery indicator will show the battery strength when the unit is turned on so batteries can be
replaced if necessary.
Connect the adapter properly to a working 12-Volt cigar lighter receptacle and firmly insert the
adapter cord plug to the DC 12V Jack located on the back of the radio cabinet. Be sure AC/DC
switch is in at DC position.
CAR ADAPTER (Optional accessory): Use only 12-Volt, 1Amp DC supply, negative ground.
The cigarette lighter plug is equipped with a fuse to protect the radio. To replace this fuse
unscrew the top of the plug.
