AXIS OWNER’S MANUAL
USING THE DC-IN (5V) USB CORD
A USB charging cord is included. Plug the large USB plug into your
computer’s USB socket (computer must be turned on) or into an AC
adapter (not included) with a USB socket on it (must support 5V 500),
available at most electronics retailers. Plug the mini-USB plug into the
DC-IN socket (located under the top rubber cover on the back of the
radio). To play the radio without charging the rechargeable battery,
press BATT and then POWER (button with circle and vertical line). To
play the radio and charge the rechargeable battery, press DYN and
then press POWER. A full charge is acquired after about 8 hours of
charging. The radio can be played while it’s charging.
LCD BACKLIGHT
Each time a button is pressed, the LCD backlight turns on
for about 10 seconds.
SELECTING BANDS AND
TUNING IN STATIONS
The AXIS plays AM (520-1710 KHz), FM (87.5-108 MHz) and
seven NOAA Weather channels:
Select AM, FM or WB1-WB7 with the band knob on the left
side of the radio.
When listening to FM and Weather channels, extend the
telescopic antenna all the way up. When tuning AM stations
the telescopic antenna is not needed and can be lowered.
Tune into stations by scrolling the TUNE knob.
