Charging the battery pack
Your radio can use a rechargeable NiMH battery pack which can be
recharged by inserting the AC adapter into the radio charge jack or by
using the optional AC desktop charger. Initial charge time is 24 hours.
Charge time is about 12 hours thereafter. Charge the battery pack
when the low battery icon flashes on the display. Remove the radio
from the charger when the battery pack is charged.
To charge the battery pack using the optional desktop charger:
1 Connect the AC adapter into an AC wall outlet.
2 Insert the adapter jack into the desktop charger jack.
3 Place the radio into the desktop charger slot. The desktop charger
lights up to indicate the battery pack is charging.
Using the battery level indicator
Your radio has a battery level indicator that shows the battery level.
The greater the number of bars visible, the stronger the battery level.
When the battery level is low, the indicator does not have any bars
and flashes to indicate your batteries should be replaced or
recharged.

Turning the radio on and off
