Elta 3642 Portable Radio User Manual


 
Battery Operation
Open the battery compartment (6) of the Radio and insert four UM-2 or equivalent batteries following the polarity
diagram shown inside the battery compartment.
If the radio does not function or the sound is distorted, the batteries may be exhausted and need to be replaced with
new ones. If the unit is not to be used for sometimes or is being run exclusively on AC Power, remove batteries to avoid
leakage. Plugging in the Mains Lead automatically cuts off the battery connection. To return to battery operation, remove
the mains lead.
Batteries should be removed from the compartment if the unit is not to be used for sometime.
Discharged batteries should be removed from the unit to avoid leakage.
