4. Optional AAA Alkaline Batteries

For additional backup power, the radio supports 3 AAA alkaline batteries (not included). Insert them into the designated compartment, ensuring correct polarity. Note that the radio's internal clock may reset if the main power switch is off and the internal battery is disconnected, but FM presets and Bluetooth pairing should remain.

5. Ntinye ike USB-C

Connect the provided USB-C cable to the USB-C input port on the side of the radio and to a compatible USB power adapter for faster charging of the internal battery.
