SETUP

Install or Replace Batteries

AcuRite recommends high quality alkaline or lithium batteries for the

best product performance. Heavy duty or rechargeable batteries are not

recommended.

Batteries provide backup power in the event of a power outage. They

provide portable power so you can take the radio with you for outdoor

activities, such as ball games, hiking, skiing, boating, hunting, shing, etc.

You can also quickly take your radio with you to a safe location during an

emergency.

The power dock is the main

power source for this weather

radio. The radio is always “listening”

for alerts, even when the audio

speaker is silenced. This funtion

requires substantial power and, as

a result, the weather radio will last

approximately 3 days on battery

power alone.

Install Batteries

1. Release clip and slide off the clip on

the back of the radio.

2. Slide off battery compartment cover.

3. Insert 3 x AA batteries into the

battery compartment. Follow the

polarity (+/-) diagram in the battery

compartment.

4. Replace the battery cover.

After installing batteries, the weather

report audio will automatically turn on.

To silence, press the “LISTEN” button.

FIRST, RELEASE CLIP

THEN, SLIDE OFF
