DEAR JENSEN® CUSTOMER

Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

To establish a safe level:• Start your volume control at a low setting.• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.

Once you have established a comfortable sound level:• Set the dial and leave it there.Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future.After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

We Want You Listening For a LifetimeUsed wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.

Customer’s Record:The serial number of this product is found on its bottom cover. You should note the serial number of this unit in the space provided as a permanent record of your purchase to aid in identification in the event of theft of loss.

POWER SOURCE

This radio is designed to operate on multiple power sources.

IMPORTANT: Set the Battery Selector Switch in the Built-in Rechargeable “LI-ION” position and pull the insulator tab from the battery compartment to activate the internal rechargeable battery. If the low battery icon D appears flashing on the display, fully recharge the internal rechargeable battery using one of the options below, or install 3 new ” AA ” batteries and change the Battery Selector Switch to “AA” Battery mode.

A) FOUR WAYS TO POWER THE UNIT

1) “DYNAMO” POWER OPERATION

  1. A 3.7V DC rechargeable lithium battery is included with the JEP-650 and comes pre-installed in the unit. To activate the battery, pull on the clear insulator tab to remove it from the battery compartment.
  2. Set the Battery Selector Switch on the front panel to the “LI-ION” !L1 – 10N~ position.
  3. Lift the Hand Crank handle outward until it’s fully extended. Begin rotating the Hand Crank either clockwise or counterclockwise to begin charging the internal battery. The red CHARGE LED on the front panel will light red while you are turning the Hand Crank.
  4. Continue turning the Crank to generate electricity to charge the battery. More power is generated the longer you turn the crank handle, and the Radio listening time will be extended (Radio reception only).Note: Turn the Hand Crank continuously in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction at 100-130 RPM (1-2 complete turns per second} to generate constant power and charge the internal battery. It may require up to 5 – 6 minutes of cranking if the battery is completely drained and the LCD clock display and LED light do not work. You may need to press the reset button if lithium battery is charged up by cranking but radio or LED light does not work.
  5. Press the Power On/Standby button to turn on the unit for operation.

Lithium Battery Safety InstructionsDo not burn or bury batteries. Do not puncture or crush. Do not disassemble. Recycle Lithium batteries. Do not dispose of in the trash.If the electrolyte in the cells should get on your skin, thoroughly wash with soap and water.If in the eyes, rinse thoroughly with cool water. Immediately seek medical attention.Use only chargers rated for Lithium cells. Be sure the charger’s voltage and current settings are correct for the battery pack being charged.Charge batteries on a fireproof surface away from flammable items or liquids.Batteries should NEVER be left unattended while charging. Only adults should charge the batteries.Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for charging the product and do not charge longer than recommended. Unplug the charger when the battery is charged.

Recycle Rechargeable BatteriesRecycle your old rechargeable batteries at one of the many collection sites in the U.S. and Canada. To find the site nearest you, visit www.call2recycle.org or call toll-free 1-877-2-RECYCLE.

2) Dry cell Battery Operation

  1. Open the Battery Door on the back of the radio.
  2. Following the polarity diagrams shown in the battery compartment, insert 3 ‘AA’ (UM-3) batteries (Not included) and close the battery door.Note: For optimum performance, alkaline-type batteries are recommended.
  3. Set the Battery Selector Switch to the ” AA Battery” position. The build-in rechargeable lithium battery will be cut off.
  4. Press the Power On/Standby button to turn on the unit for operation.

IMPORTANT:

1.) Be sure that the batteries are installed correctly. Wrong polarity may damage the unit.2.) Only change the position of the Battery Selector Switch when the unit is in standby mode. Changing the position of the Battery Selector Switch in any other mode will reset the clock to 12:00.

3) SOLAR POWER

  1. Ensure the included rechargeable Li-ion Battery is installed.
  2. Set the Battery Selector Switch to “LI-ION” !L1-10 N~ position.
  3. Put the unit in direct sunlight, making sure the solar panel of the unit is facing towards the sun. If the sunlight is strong enough, the red CHARGE LED on the front panel of the unit will light up red indicating the unit is charging. More power is generated the longer you leave the unit in direct sunlight, and the Radio listening time will be extended (Radio reception only).

Note: If the battery is completely drained (LCD clock display and LED light do not work), it may require very long exposure to direct sunlight in order to charge the battery using the solar panel. You should use one of the other power modes available if you need to use the radio immediately.

4) DC IN micro USB Charging Port

The unit has a micro USB port on the back of the unit.

  1. Use the micro USB plug side of a 5V DC, 1 000mA output AC adaptor (not included}, and connect it to the USB port on the back of the unit.
  2. Ensure the included rechargeable Li-ion Battery is installed and plug the AC adaptor into an 120V AC, 60Hz household outlet.
  3. Set the Battery Selector Switch to “LI-ION” !LI-ION~ position.
    • Note:
      1. The USB power adaptor (not included) described above is the same type commonly used with smartphones. A USB to micro USB cord (not included) is also required for charging the unit via the micro USB jack located on the back of the unit.
      2. Make sure you have set the Battery Selector Switch in the “LI-ION” position when using USB power. The unit will not work in the AA battery position if no AA batteries are installed or the installed batteries are drained.
      3. You may experience noise or reduced reception if you are operating the radio when using the Micro USB charging port. This interference is caused by the adaptor you are using and not a defect with the product. We recommend using another adaptor, preferably a linear type or refrain from using the radio until the internal battery is fully charged.

LOW BATTERY INDICATORWhen using battery power to operate this unit and the battery power becomes weak, the low battery icon will appear & flashing on LCD display. You are recommended to charge the rechargeable battery or replace the exhausted dry cell batteries immediately.
