The Roxicosly ROX-DE-CR1030DAB offers multiple ways to power the device and recharge its internal battery.
7.1 Solar Charging
Figure 7.1: The 8500mm² monocrystalline solar panel charges the radio when exposed to direct sunlight.
- Place the radio with the solar panel facing direct sunlight.
- The solar charging indicator on the display will illuminate.
- Solar charging is most effective in strong, direct sunlight and is primarily intended for maintaining battery charge or for emergency power generation.
7.2 Hand Crank Charging
Figure 7.2: The robust hand crank provides manual power generation.
- Unfold the hand crank from the back of the radio.
- Rotate the hand crank clockwise or counter-clockwise at a steady speed (approximately 120-150 RPM) for 3-5 minutes to generate sufficient power for basic operation or a short charge.
- The charging indicator will show when power is being generated.
7.3 USB-C Charging
- Connect the provided USB-C cable to the radio's Type-C input port and a USB power source (e.g., wall adapter, power bank, computer). This is the fastest method for a full charge.
7.4 AAA Battery Power
- If the internal rechargeable battery is depleted, the radio can operate using 3 AAA batteries (not included) installed in the battery compartment.
8. Maintenance
- Clean the radio with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Keep the solar panel clean to ensure optimal charging efficiency.
- Store the radio in a cool, dry place when not in use.
- If storing for extended periods, charge the internal battery at least once every 3 months to maintain its health.
9. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Radio does not turn on. | Battery is depleted. | Charge the radio using USB-C, solar, or hand crank. Ensure AAA batteries are correctly installed if using them. |
| Poor radio reception. | Antenna not extended, weak signal area, interference. | Fully extend the telescopic antenna. Reposition the radio for better signal. Avoid areas with strong electromagnetic interference. |
| Solar charging is slow or not working. | Insufficient sunlight, dirty solar panel. | Ensure the solar panel is exposed to direct, strong sunlight. Clean the solar panel surface. |
| Hand crank charging is ineffective. | Cranking too slowly or inconsistently. | Rotate the hand crank at a steady, moderate speed (120-150 RPM). |
| Bluetooth device cannot pair. | Radio not in pairing mode, device too far, interference. | Ensure the radio is in Bluetooth pairing mode. Move your device closer to the radio. Restart both devices. |
| External device not charging from radio. | Radio battery low, incorrect cable, device not compatible. | Ensure the radio's internal battery has sufficient charge. Use a functional charging cable. Verify device compatibility. |
