Connecting an AC Adapter
You can charge the radio from a standard
AC outlet using an optional AC adapter
(such as Cat. No. 273-1665).
Warning: Do not use an AC adapter’s po-
larized plug with an extension cord, recep-
tacle, or other outlet unless the blades can
be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.
Cautions:
• The recommended AC adapter sup-
plies 9 volts and delivers at least 300
milliamps. It has a barrel plug with a
center negative tip that correctly fits
the radio’s
DC 9V jack. Using an
adapter that does not meet these
specifications could damage the radio
or the adapter.
• To protect your radio and AC adapter,
always plug the adapter into the radio
before you plug it into the AC outlet,
and always unplug the adapter from
the AC outlet before you unplug it
from the radio.
• Make sure CHRG inside the battery
compartment is set to ON and nickel-
cadmium batteries are installed (see
“Installing Batteries” on Page 3).
1. Plug the adapter’s 3.4 mm outside
diameter/1.3 mm inside diameter bar-
rel plug into your radio’s
DC 9V jack.
