USING AND CHARGING tHE

RECHARGABLE BAttERY

The rechargeable Ni-MH (nickel-metal hydride) battery is located
in the battery compartment. To use it, plug the battery into the
socket adjacent to it, press the

DYN button (front right side of

radio) and then the

POWER button. You may have to charge the

battery. To do this, simply turn the crank for 90 seconds. You can
also charge via mini USB located under DC-IN (5V) on the back of
the radio. After charging, press

DYN and then POWER. After a

few years the rechargeable battery will eventually lose its ability to
hold a charge. Contact Etón Corporation to order a replacement.

While crank charging the Ni-MH battery, the battery charge
indicator (located on front right side of radio) turns red. While
charging the battery with the USB cord, the charging light turns
red while charging and turns green when fully charged.

A fully charged rechargeable Ni-MH battery will play for about 4
to 5 hours, at low volume. Crank charging for 1 minute will play
the radio for about 5 minutes, at low volume.

Warning: If you have the rechargeable battery unplugged,
do not turn the crank, as this can cause overload to internal
components, and possibly damage them.
