USING AN AC ADAPTER (NOT INCLUDED)

nal Ni-MH battery pack. Charge it for 8 hours to achieve a full charge.

Only use an AC adapter of 4.5 VDC, negative polarity and 100mA
current capability. To order the correct AC adapter call the toll free
number shown at the beginning of this manual, ask for the parts
department and order part # GPU3504.

2. While continually turning the dynamo crank, radio stations can be
tuned and the lights and siren function.

specify charging rates or usage time. 10 to 15 minutes of cranking
may result in 1 or more minutes of talk-time.
