5 GETTING STARTED
WHAT THE E10 INCLUDES
• Earbud style earphones
• Carrying pouch
• AC adaptor/charger
• 4 - 1100 mAh, Ni-MH rechargeable batteries.
• Owner’s manual
NOTE: In the instructions below, numbers in
parenthesis ( ), refer to the diagrams.
INSTALLING BATTERIES
The battery compartment is located on the back of
the E10. Its cover is on the lower right corner of the
back. To remove the battery compartment cover,
apply thumb pressure and slide it towards the bottom
of the radio. Install 4 AA alkaline batteries into the
battery compartment, observing the battery polarity
diagram on the back of the radio.
NOTE: If you don’t plan to use rechargeable bat-
teries at all, then it’s a good idea to set SYSTEM SET
CODE 29. To do this, see the section titled SYSTEM
SET CODES. This assures that the battery strength
indicator will display correctly for your non-
rechargeable batteries. This is not a mandatory
procedure and the E10 will function if it is not done.
PREVENTING BATTERY ACID
LEAKAGE
To avoid battery acid leakage, only use high quality
alkaline, lithium or rechargeable nickel-metal-
hydride batteries. Never intermix old with new, or
different brands or types of batteries. Damage
caused by battery acid leakage is not covered by
this product’s warranty. If the batteries leak, don’t
throw them away and immediately contact the
manufacturer of the batteries to inquire about their
battery leakage warranty program.
USING THE INCLUDED AC
ADAPTOR/CHARGER
To power the E10 with the included AC Adaptor/
Charger, plug it into a wall outlet first, and then
into the socket on the left side of the E10, labeled
DC 6 V. Batteries can be in the radio while using
the AC Adaptor/Charger.
CHARGING BATTERIES IN THE
E10
The E10 will play using whatever type of AA batteries
are in the battery compartment, but only nickel-
metal-hydride batteries can be charged within it. If
non-rechargeable batteries are installed, the E10
has a built-in safeguard system that will prevent
them from being charged. This safeguard system
works with the E10 set to either SYSTEM SET
CODE 28 or 29, as described below, and only with
the included AC Adaptor/Charger.
WARNING: Use only the included AC
Adaptor/Charger to recharge Ni-MH batteries. Use
of any other device may cause the rechargeable
batteries to overheat, become damaged and possibly
damage the E10. The built-in safeguard system,
described above, works only with the included AC
Adaptor/Charger. Damage caused to the E10
resulting from failure to observe this warning is not
covered by the warranty and voids the warranty.
