Accensione del dispositivo

The Kaito KA339W offers four ways to power the unit:

  • Manovella: Rotate the hand crank clockwise or counter-clockwise for approximately 3-5 minutes to generate power for basic operation or to charge the internal battery. A charging indicator light may illuminate.
  • Pannello solare: Posizionare la radio con il pannello solare rivolto verso la luce solare diretta. Il pannello solare carica la batteria interna. L'efficienza di ricarica dipende dall'intensità della luce solare.
  • USB Charging (DC IN 5V): Connect the included USB cable to the DC IN 5V port on the radio and to a USB power source (e.g., computer, wall adapter). The charging indicator light will illuminate. This is the fastest way to fully charge the internal battery.
  • Batterie AA: Open the battery compartment and insert 3 AA batteries (not included) according to the polarity markings. This provides an alternative power source when the internal battery is depleted.

Note: For optimal performance, it is recommended to fully charge the internal battery via USB before first use.
