Powering the radio
The NETBOX can be powered using the AC power cord
or by using 6 x C size (UM-2) Alkaline or NiMH batteries.
Battery operation
To power the radio using battery power, follow these
steps:
1.
Turn the locking knob on the battery compartment anti-
clockwise to loosen and open the battery compartment.
2.
Before inserting the batteries, make sure the battery
switch inside the battery compartment is placed in the
correct position (Alkaline or NiMH, corresponding to
your batteries).
3.
Insert the batteries into the battery compartment with
polarities as shown in the diagram inside the battery
compartment.

4.
Close the battery compartment and turn the locking
knob clockwise to lock the compartment.
Note:
Reduced power, distortion and a "stuttering sound" or
a red battery indicator are all signs that the batteries
need to be replaced or recharged. Instructions on
recharging the batteries can be found below.
AC operation
Before connecting the plug of the AC power cord to a
wall socket, please ensure that the voltage that the wall
socket supplies is within the supported range printed at
the back of the radio (100-240 V ~ 50/60 Hz). If this is the
case, simply unwind the power cord from the power cord
storage and plug it into the wall socket.
If the radio is not being used or if the radio is being
used on battery power without the need for charging the
batteries, pull the plug from the wall socket and wind the
power cord around the power cord storage.
Charging the batteries
After inserting rechargeable batteries into the battery
compartment, simply connect the radio to a wall socket to
change the batteries. The battery indicator will blink green
while the batteries are being charged and will continuously
be lit green when the batteries are fully charged. If the
radio is turned on, the battery icon in the upper right of
the radio's display will also show the charging progress.
In Standby mode, it will show icons for all batteries
individually and charging progress is displayed. Fully
charging a set of batteries will take approximately 6 hours.
This time may vary, however, depending on the capacity
of the batteries.
If an error occurs while the batteries are being charged,
the radio's battery indicator will blink red. Furthermore,
if the radio is powered on, an "X" is shown in the battery
icon in the upper right of the radio's display. To check
which battery is causing the issue, press the Power button
to switch over to the Standby mode. In the Standby mode,
the radio's display will show all six batteries and the
battery causing the issue will be marked with a red "X".
Replace this battery to solve the issue and then reconnect
the radio's power cord to ensure the batteries are being
charged.
