Battery operation
1. Remove the Battery cover on the rear of the unit by pushing the
catches in the direction of the arrows.
2. Insert four LR20 (D size) batteries into the spaces in the compartment.
Take care to ensure all batteries are inserted with the correct polarity
as shown inside the battery compartment. Replace the battery cover.
3. Reduced power, distortion, and a ‘stuttering’ sound are all signs that
the batteries may need replacing.
4. If the radio is not to be used for any extended period of time it is
recommended that the batteries are removed from the radio.
We would recommend for economy, that the R983 is used on the mains
whenever possible with battery operation for occasional or stand-by
use only.
Mains operation
1. Place your radio on a flat surface. Plug the mains lead into the Mains
socket located on the rear of your radio ensuring that the plug is pushed
fully into the socket. The batteries will be automatically disconnected.
3. Plug the other end into a wall socket and switch on. The Display
backlight will light up indicating that the radio is connected to the
mains supply.
Battery replacement
1. The battery indicator will appear in the display for 7 seconds after the
radio is switched on. The indicator will show when the batteries
are new. The batteries should be replaced when the indicator shows
. After removing the batteries you have approximately 3 minutes
to replace the batteries after which the clock and memory information
will be lost
