before cranking (the crank charges the internal battery and by design, the smart device must be

disconnected first to prevent the phone from power cycling and reduce the load on the crank).

1. Lift the hand crank from the cradle, as shown in Figure 2.

2. Turn the hand crank either clockwise or counterclockwise at about two cranks per second for

two minutes to activate the internal battery for initial use, or when the unit has not been used

for more than 60 days. The red battery charging light illuminates when charging, as shown in

Figure 1. After two minutes, rest for two minutes to extend the life of the hand crank and

repeat.

6.5 Dry Cell Battery AAA Battery Power

The WR-333A also includes the option to power from 3 x AAA power instead of the rechargeable

battery source. This is convenient if you have drained the rechargeable battery source and you wish to

avoid hand cranking the unit.

1. Open the Battery Door on the back of the radio.

2. Insert 3 x AAA (UM-4) batteries (not included) and close the battery door (Figure 2,

reference 15).

NOTE: For optimum performance, alkaline-type batteries are recommended.

3. Follow the polarity diagrams shown in the battery compartment.

4. Lift the rubber tab on the back of the WR-333A to expose the power switch, as shown in

Figure 2. Select the AAA battery switch position:

NOTE: The AAA battery selection will disable the Lithium Ion rechargeable batteries.

NOTE: Make certain the batteries are installed correctly. The wrong polarity may damage the

unit.

NOTE: Do not crank the radio with the switch in the AAA position. This may cause permanent

damage to the radio.

WARNING:



Do not mix old and new batteries.



Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or rechargeable (nickel-cadmium) batteries.



Only batteries of the same or equivalent type as recommend are to be used.
