Weatheradio Alert
(120-0246)                 Batteries                  Faxback Doc. # 19120

Your radio uses three AA batteries for power.  We recommend alkaline 
batteries, such as Radio Shack Cat. No. 23-552.  Follow these steps to
install the batteries.

NOTE:  Do not use rechargeable batteries in your Weatheradio.

1.  Remove the battery compartment cover by sliding if off in the 
    direction of the arrow.

2.  Install three AA batteries as indicated by the polarity symbols
    (+ and -) marked inside the compartment.

3.  Replace the cover.

NOTES:  If reception becomes weak or the sound becomes distorted, replace
        the batteries.

        Never leave weak or dead batteries in the radio.  They can leak 
        chemicals that can damage the radio.

        If you do not plan to use your radio for several weeks, remove the
        batteries.

        If your radio's batteries become weak, your radio might not sound a
        tone when an emergency or test alert is broadcast.  Test your
        radio's reception periodically (see "Testing Alert Reception"), and
        replace the batteries if the tone does not sound.
