Battery Operation - Roberts Rambler Manual

Battery operation

1. Remove the battery cover located underneath the unit by applying
pressure to the catch in the direction shown by the arrow and then
lifting off the cover.
2. Insert four LR14 (C size) batteries into the spaces in the compartment.
Take care to ensure all batteries are inserted with the correct polarity
as shown next to 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 radio is used via the AC
adaptor whenever possible with battery operation for occasional use
only.
If long term battery powered use is required, we recommend using
the Eco power saving mode, as described on page 30. The use of the
Eco power saving mode will maximise battery life if only occasional
use is intended and where the radio is not connected to the mains at
other times.
IMPORTANT: The batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat
such as sunshine, fi re or the like. After use, disposable batteries should
if possible be taken to a suitable recycling centre. On no account
should batteries be disposed of by incineration.
