Battery operation
1. Remove the Battery cover on the rear of the unit by pushing the catch
downwards. Open the battery door.
2. Insert six LR14 (C size) batteries into the spaces in the compartment.
Take care to ensure all batteries are inserted with the correct polarity
as shown on the rear of your radio. Close the battery door.
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 RD-25 is used via the
mains adaptor whenever possible with battery operation for occasional
or stand-by use only.
Using the AC adaptor
Your radio is supplied with a Mains Adaptor.
1. Place your radio on a fl at surface.
2. Insert the adaptor plug into the DC socket located on the left hand
end of your radio.
3. Plug the adaptor into a standard 13 amp mains socket outlet. Whenever
the adaptor is used, the batteries are automatically disconnected.
The AC adaptor should be disconnected from the mains supply and
the radio when not in use. The unit is only fully isolated from the mains
if the AC adaptor is removed from the wall socket.
