Charging the Radio

The radio offers three methods for recharging its internal battery:

• Type-C USB Charging: Connect the provided Type-C USB cable to the radio's input port and a USB power source (e.g., wall adapter, computer USB port). This is the fastest charging method.
• Solar Charging: Place the radio in direct sunlight with the solar panel facing upwards. The solar panel will convert sunlight into energy to charge the internal battery. This method is primarily for maintaining charge or slow charging in emergencies.
• Hand Crank Charging: Extend the hand crank handle and rotate it clockwise or counter-clockwise at a steady pace (approximately 130-150 RPM). One minute of cranking can provide several minutes of radio operation or emergency light.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the radio with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Storage: Store the radio in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Battery Care: To prolong battery life, fully charge the radio at least once every three months, even if not in use. Avoid fully discharging the battery frequently.
• Water Resistance: The radio is designed to be splash-proof, but it is not submersible. Do not expose it to heavy rain or immerse it in water.
