Weatheradio Alert
(120-0246) Batteries Faxback Doc. # 19120
Your radio uses three AA batteries for power. We recommend alkaline
batteries, such as Radio Shack Cat. No. 23-552. Follow these steps to
install the batteries.
NOTE: Do not use rechargeable batteries in your Weatheradio.
1. Remove the battery compartment cover by sliding if off in the
direction of the arrow.
2. Install three AA batteries as indicated by the polarity symbols
(+ and -) marked inside the compartment.
3. Replace the cover.
NOTES: If reception becomes weak or the sound becomes distorted, replace
the batteries.
Never leave weak or dead batteries in the radio. They can leak
chemicals that can damage the radio.
If you do not plan to use your radio for several weeks, remove the
batteries.
If your radio's batteries become weak, your radio might not sound a
tone when an emergency or test alert is broadcast. Test your
radio's reception periodically (see "Testing Alert Reception"), and
replace the batteries if the tone does not sound.
