Battery Operation
This unit requires 4 “AA” batteries, not included. We recommend using a well-
known brand of alkaline batteries for longest life and best performance.
1.) Open the battery compartment by pressing on the “ ” marks on the cover
and sliding it downward in the direction of the arrows.
2.) If necessary, fold the AC power cord as shown and push it back into the cord
storage compartment.
3.) Insert the 4 “AA” batteries into the battery compartment as shown. Be sure to
observe the polarity markings inside the compartment. If the batteries are
inserted incorrectly the unit will not work.
4.) Slide the battery cover upward until it snaps back into place.
When the radio sound becomes weak or distorted it is time to change the batteries.
Replace all 4 batteries with fresh, new alkaline batteries at the same time. Do not
mix old and new batteries, or different types of batteries together.
Battery Precautions
• Replacement of batteries must be done by an adult.
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or rechargeable (nickel-cadmium) batteries.
• The supply terminals are not to be short-circuited.
• Non-rechargeable batteries are not to be recharged.
• Exhausted batteries are to be removed.
• Only batteries of the equivalent type are to be used.
• Batteries are to be inserted with the correct polarity.
• Dispose of batteries properly. Do not dispose of batteries in fire. The batteries may explode
or leak.
