Power Supply - Albrecht ae 5290 xls Anleitung

Your AE 5290 XLS receives power from the 2 pin plug-in cable.
The red and black wires in the cable are for the power supply. Since the radio has now a
permanent storage via EEPROM, it is no more necessary to connect any + wire to
permanent DC supply. The cable has a looped-in fuse.
You can choose from various methods when connecting to the power supply (red and black):
Example 1 : permanent connection to 12 Volts
The channel last tuned into and the 5 stored stations are maintained after switching
off; the set can be switched on and off at any time using the volume / on/off switch.
Connect up the red wire to the positive pole on the vehicle battery (or elsewhere in
the vehicle's electrical system with permanent plus) or to a 12 volt power unit.
Connect up the black wire to the negative pole on the vehicle battery or the power
unit or to a well-conductive part of the car body.
Example 2 : connection via ignition switch
The set should be automatically switched on and off with the ignition. All stored
stations should be kept in memory.
Attach the red wire to a part of the vehicle electrical system which is connected with
the ignition switch.
For EMC reasons, the cable used to connect to the power supply should be no longer than 3
metres.
If you wish to operate your set at home from the mains supply then please only use a
stabilized power pack with at least 2 amps permanent current-carrying capacity. Under no
circumstances should you use a car battery charger, or a simple DC power supply as they
are provided for camping cooling devices, as these are not stabilized and during open circuit
reach such high voltage levels that your radio set could be destroyed.
In any case, please set the country switch on the rear side to the correct country position
before You plug in the DC cable! Do not change country switch position while radio is still
connected to power supply.
If in base station use it is important to you that the stored stations are kept even after
switching off and on again, then please do not switch the external power supply power unit
off when you switch your set off for a short time. Only use the on/off switch on the set itself.
Never repair a blown fuse (we recommend values between 2 and 5 A) with silver
paper or with aluminium foil! If the fuses keep blowing, then please give your radio
set to your servicing dealer to be repaired or hand it in to Albrecht's service station.
The maximum allowed voltage variation for this radio is up to 15.6 volts. Never
exceed this voltage under no circumstances! The transmitting stages for your
AE5290 XLS are electronically stabilized, and therefore it is impossible to increase
output by means of excessive supply voltage. Such attempts may lead to serious
damage to the radio set but will never increase output power!
