Using AAA alkaline or 18650 Li-Ion battery
This radio can operate using 3 pieces of alkaline AAA batteries or by a 18650 Li-Ion battery.
Slide the battery cover of the battery compartment (15) down and release the battery cover.
Now place 3 AAA alkaline batteries and/or 1 * 18650 Li-Ion battery in the battery compartment
and make sure you install them per the right polarity as marked in the battery compartment.
Release the battery insulation foil to activate the 18650 Li-Ion battery.
After placing the batteries, slide the battery cover up to close it in the original position.
Slide the AAA/Li-Ion power switch (6) to the required position (AAA of Li-Ion powered).
The selected energy source, AAA of Li-Ion will be displayed left from the battery status symbol
and battery symbol will provide the battery capacity (25% | 50% | 75% | 100%).
When the radio is not used for a long time, take out the batteries.
When you replace the batteries, please ensure you replace with batteries with the same specifications and avoid using old and new
batteries in a mixed way.
When using the rechargeable 18650 Li-Ion battery, make sure to charge the radio at least once a month to maintain the battery.
In case the 18650 battery is running flat and remaining voltage becomes below a critical voltage, the battery may be damaged.
Charge the radio immediately when using 18650 Li-Ion battery by USB, solar or dynamo when the battery status symbol shows that
the battery is empty or the battery status symbol is flashing.
In case of using alkaline AAA batteries, replace the batteries when the battery status shows that the battery is empty.
Charging the device
1) By USB
Be sure that the power source slide (6) is at Li-Ion position.
Connect the supplied micro USB charging cable to the micro USB
charging input (12).
Connect the other end of the USB charging cable to an USB charger,
powerbank or USB interface of your computer (not included).
During charging, the charging indicator (2) will flash and the bars in the
battery status symbol in the right upper corner of the display, will be moving to indicate the device is charging.
It takes around 3 hours for fully charge the battery.
Disconnect after the battery is fully charged.
2) By dynamo manual power generation
Be sure that the power source slide (6) is at Li-Ion position.
Take out the dynamo arm (17) and rotate the arm at an even speed of around 2 revolutions
per second (120 revolutions per minute). This will charge the Li-Ion battery with the
9 highest efficiency at charging current of around 400mA. You can charge in both directions.
Over high rotation speed will not increase the power generation.
10
Do not over high rotate, as it may damage the device.
11
During charging, the charging indicator (2) will illuminate and the bars in the
battery status symbol in the right upper corner of the display, will be moving to indicate the device is charging.
