SATELLIT 750 OWNER’S MANUAL
Power the SATELLIT 750 by installing 4 D alkaline, lithium or Ni-MH
batteries or by plugging in the included 6 VDC AC adapter. The AC
adapter plugs into the 6 Volt DC socket on the left side of the radio.
A battery symbol appears in the lower right of the LCD, indicating
battery or AC adapter power. If there’s a power failure with the AC
adapter attached and batteries installed, the batteries will take over
and supply power to the radio.

quality alkaline, lithium or rechargeable nickel-metal-hydride bat-
teries. Never intermix old with new, or different brands or types of
batteries. Damage caused by battery acid leakage is not covered by
this product’s warranty.
