FUNCTION KEYS

TURNING THE RADIO ON AND OFF

Turn it on and off with the VOLUME control. When it's on, the light shines green (front right side of the band selector switch).

ADJUSTING THE VOLUME

Set VOLUME control to the desired level.

POWER SOURCES

  1. Rechargeable battery pack (Li-Poly battery)
  2. USB charging cable

CHARGING THE Li-POLY BATTERY PACK

  • Turn the crank for about one minute. The charge indicator light will turn red (located to the right of the band selector dial) when turning the hand crank. This will result in about 15 minutes of low volume play.
  • To charge via USB cable, plug the USB cord into a computer (must be turned on) or into an AC adapter with a USB socket (5V, 500mA). Then plug the other end into the mini-USB socket (labeled DC-IN under the rubber cover located on the bottom of the radio). While charging, the charge indicator light will turn red, and then change to green when it is fully charged. Once fully charged, the radio will play for about 8 hours, at low volume.

TUNING-IN STATIONS

  1. Select AM, Fm or WB (weather band) channel 1-7 with the band selector switch. For FM and WB, fully extend the telescopic antenna for best reception. When listening to AM the antenna is not needed because AM reception uses an internal ferrite bar antenna.
  2. Tune AM and FM stations with the TUNE knob, and tune in WB (weather band) with the 7-position switch. In most communities you will hear only one weather station.

WEATHER BAND CHANNELS

Channel 1 162.400 Mhz
Channel 2 162.425 MHz
Channel 3 162.450 Mhz
Channel 4 162.475 MHz
Channel 5 162.500 Mhz
Channel 6 162.525 MHz
Channel 7 162.550 MHz

CELL PHONE CHARGING

To charge the cell phone from the radio's Li-Poly battery, use the cell phone's USB charging cord to connect it to the radio's large USB socket (under the rubber cover on the bottom of the radio).
CELL PHONE CHARGING - Step 1
Turn the band selector knob to CELL. The indicator light will turn ON. The cell phone's battery charging indicator will show that it's charging. When fully charged, it provides 20 minutes of talk time. If internal battery is completely drain, turn the crank for 7 minutes at 130 rpm to charge the cell phone enough to talk for about 5 minutes.
CELL PHONE CHARGING - Step 2
If your cell phone has a USB charging cord, you can use it. If not, you can purchase one from www.iGo.com, or call 1-888-205-0093. To purchase a charging tip and cord for your cell phone, go to www.iGo.com, or call 1-888-205-0093 for USB charging cable model# PS00271-0003. Have the brand and model of your cell phone ready when purchasing a cell phone tip.

USING THE LIGHT

Turn the light on and off with the light switch button, located on top of the unit, near the light.

EARPHONE JACK

Plug in earphones (not included). Sound is heard from both sides in monaural (mono). Always turn down the volume before using earphones.
