3. Starting to use your PMR radio

Installing the batteries
To use the radio, install four AAA batteries.

Caution!
Incorrect positioning of the batteries can damage both
the batteries and the unit.


To install the batteries
Remove the belt clip. To do this, pull back the tab on the top of
the clip, raise the cover and pull off.
Pull the battery compartment lock downwards and release the
battery cover.
Insert four AAA batteries.
Position the batteries according to the polarity markings on the
plastic. Replace the battery cover.
Snap the lock tab and belt clip back into place.


Connecting the adapter
To operate the unit on AC/DC, a suitable adapter is required
(option) to charge rechargeable batteries.
Insert the round connector (OD 2.5 mm) of the
7.5 V DC/200 mA AC/DC adapter* into the charging jack on
bottom side of the unit.


Note
The unit should be switched off in order to charge the batteries
properly. If the unit is left switched on the charge current will be
too low to charge the batteries, as the unit will still be using power.
There is no charge indicator during charging in the off mode.
It takes 7-10 hours to fully charge the batteries if they are at their
lowest level.



WARNING
For the charging process using an AC/DC adapter, use only
rechargeable AAA-type batteries. No rechargeable batteries
will be damaged beyond use and damage the unit (risk of explosion)!
Do not mix old and new batteries.
Do not mix alkaline batteries, standard (carbon-zinc) and
rechargeable batteries.

* AC/DC adapter and rechargeable batteries are not included.
