hand side of your radio ensuring that the plug is pushed fully into the
socket.
3. Plug the other end of the mains adaptor into a standard 13A mains
socket outlet and switch on the wall socket. Whenever the adaptor is
used the batteries are automatically disconnected.

mains completely, the mains adaptor should be removed from the mains
socket outlet completely.

General

leave your radio where excessive heat could cause damage such as in
a parked car where the heat from the sun can build up even though the
outside temperature may not seem too high. It is recommended that the
FM band be used wherever possible as better results in terms of quality
and freedom from interference will usually be obtained than on the MW
or LW bands.
