4in1: BT + MP3 + AUX + RADIO
Wireless BT connection
Music playing from mobile device, computer
Controls the mobile phone’s music player
MP3 playing from USB/microSD device
3-band AM-FM-SW radio
Wired audio input (AUX IN)
Extremely long service life; up to 20 hours with one charge
Expected charging time / operation time: ~10 / 20 hours
Continuous operation from the mains or from accumulator
The operation time can be multiplied by inserting an additional accumulator (18650) and batteries (LR20)
Versatile power supply: accessory power cable for charging, built-in accumulator, 3 x D/LR20 (1,5 V) batteries (not included), insertable 18650 type accumulator (not included), external 5 V miniUSB adapter (option)

INSTALLATION, POWER SUPPLY, CHARGING

The device has five different power supply options. Can be used from the built-in accumulator – after it is charged. The accumulator must be charged before the first use. Connect the supplied power cord to the radio (AC IN socket on the back), then connect to the mains and leave the radio off. When charging, the red LED is lighting on the right side. Complete the charging by removing the mains cable if the red LED goes out or after 12 hours at the latest. In case of completely discharged accumulator, the charging time is approximately 10-12 hours. This provides approx. 18-20 hours operation on the internal accumulator at medium volume. It also depends on the set volume, the selected mode and the ambient temperature. The test was done by radio listening at room temperature. It also can be charged while in use, but it increases the charging time. If it is exhausted, charge it from the mains. You can operate the built-in accumulator besides fromthe mains from 3 x D (LR20/1,5 V) batteries, or from the separately available – placed to the separate compartment next to the battery holder -18650 type accumulator or from the separately available 5 V adapter connected to the miniUSB socket (11.)
Extremely long accumulator time can be achieved with on charge if all available options are used and we insert next to the built-in accumulator simultaneously 3 x LR20 batteries and an 18650 accumulator.

Later do not charge it longer than 12 hours, even in case of total depletion! After the given time, unplug the wire from the electrical network and from the device as well! Exception, if you are listening to device during charging!
Even when it is out of use, it is recommended to recharge the accumulator in 1-2 months to reach a longer lifetime. If it depletes during use, recharge it immediately!
Insert the 3 x D batteries into the battery holder according to the polarity indicated there. If you use it from batteries, they are not charging neither from the charging cable, neither by using the external 5 Volt power supply. It is not recommended to use same (D) size accumulators instead of the batteries. In case of battery mode, do not connect the power cable to the device!
The 3 x D batteries can charge the factory built-in (and optional 18650) accumulator without connecting the power cable.
The operation time can be extended by purchasing and inserting an additional accumulator (18650 type) to the compartment designed for it.
Decreasing volume or distorted sound indicates the depletion of the batteries or the accumulator. Charge up the accumulator, immediately remove the depleted batteries!
Simultaneously do not use together differently manufactured or different-condition batteries. Battery replacement can only be done by an adult!
If there is some liquid flown out from the battery, take a protective glove and clean the battery holder with a dry cloth! It is forbidden to open, throw into fire or short circuit the batteries! The non-rechargeable batteries must not be charged! Risk of explosion! Do not put batteries instead of accumulators because their voltage and efficiency are significantly smaller!
Charging may occasionally cause noise in the speaker. When the unit is turned off, the automatic battery. The unit functions as an automatic accumulator charger in switched-off state. Therefore, remove the cable after charging is complete!
For complete power off, switch it off with the VOLUME control and unplug it from the mains!
Keep the accumulator in charged state even when it is not in use for extended life.
The used accumulator-type is a closed, lead-acid type. It requires no maintenance. AT the end of its lifetime, it can be replaced by a specialist after removing the rear panel. The cover is secured with screws.
