Dewalt DC011 Instruction Manual - Page 2

NOTE:

A battery pack will slowly lose its charge when kept out of the radio/charger. If the bat-

tery pack has not been kept on maintenance charge, it may need to be recharged before use.

A battery pack may also slowly lose its charge if left in a radio/charger that is not plugged into

an appropriate AC source.

WEAK BATTERY PACKS:

The radio/charger can also detect a weak battery. Such batteries are

still usable but should not be expected to perform as much work. In such cases, about 10 sec-

onds after battery insertion, the radio/charger will beep rapidly 8 times to indicate a weak bat-

tery condition. The radio/charger will then go on to charge the battery to the highest capacity

possible.

Important Charging Notes

1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the

air temperature is between 65°F and 75°F (18°- 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery pack in

an air temperature below +40°F (+4.5°C), or above +105°F (+40.5°C). This is important and

will prevent serious damage to the battery pack.

2. The radio/charger and battery pack may become warm to touch while charging. This is a

normal condition, and does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the battery

pack after use, avoid placing the radio/charger or battery pack in a warm environment such

as in a metal shed, or an uninsulated trailer.

3. If the battery pack does not charge properly:

a. Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance.

b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off when you

turn out the lights.

c. Move the radio/charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temper-

ature is approximately 65°F - 75°F (18° - 24°C).

d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and radio/charger to your local

service center.

4. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs which

were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these conditions. Follow the

charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with

no adverse affect on the battery pack.

5. Under certain conditions, with the radio/charger plugged into the power supply, the exposed

charging contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials

of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup

of metallic particles should be kept away from radio/charger cavities. Always keep the bat-

tery door closed when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug radio/charger before

attempting to clean.

6. Do not freeze or immerse the radio/charger in water or any other liquid.

WARNING:

Don’t allow any liquid to get inside the radio/charger. Electric shock may result.

CAUTION:

Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the

battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a service center for recycling.

OPERATING THE RADIO (FIG. 1, 2)

Your radio/charger is equipped with memory capacity in order to store the time and your

selected memory channels. When the radio is in the OFF position, this memory capacity is

powered by two (2) AA batteries that are included with the radio/charger.

TO INSTALL AA BATTERIES

WARNING:

Do not mix batteries. When replacing batteries, replace all of them at the same

time with new batteries of the same brand and type. Observe correct polarity (+ and -) when

replacing batteries. Do not store or carry batteries so that metal objects can contact exposed

battery terminals.

1. Turn the radio/charger off and unplug from the power source.

2. Open the battery compartment by lifting the battery compartment latch (H).

3. Unscrew the Phillips screw (N) on the AA battery door (L).

4. Press down on the battery door latch and pull to open.

5. Install the batteries according to the diagram inside the AA battery area.

6. Replace the AA battery door, insert Phillips screw and tighten.

7. Securely close the battery compartment.

POWER/VOLUME ADJUSTMENT

1. To turn the radio on, turn the dial (A) clockwise until you hear a click.

2. Turn the dial (A) clockwise to increase the volume. To decrease the volume, turn counter-

clockwise.

MODE FUNCTION

To choose one of the mode functions (FM, AM, or AUX) push the mode button (D) until the

desired function is found. For example, if the radio is on FM, seen in upper left portion of LCD

display (G), push the mode button twice to change to AUX.

TUNE OR SEEK FUNCTION

There are two tuning methods and one seek method for finding the desired frequency.

To Tune:

Method 1: Push and hold down the right arrow button (C) to quickly move the tuner up the

frequency band. Release the button when the desired channel is reached. To quickly

move the tuner down the frequency band, push and hold down the left arrow button.

Method 2: Turn the tuning dial (B) clockwise to move up the frequency band. Turn the tuning dial

counterclockwise to move down the frequency band.

To Seek:

Press the right arrow button (C) once and release. The tuner frequency will increase to seek the

first radio station with acceptable clarity and stop at that station. The right arrow button may be

pressed again to continue seeking a radio station at higher frequencies. The left arrow button

may be pressed to seek radio stations at lower frequencies. The seek function is available in AM

and FM modes.

TO PROGRAM THE CLOCK

1. Turn power on (see

Power/Volume Adjustment).

2. Push and hold clock button (E) until the LCD display (G) begins flashing.

3. Press the appropriate arrow button (

HR

for hour;

MIN

for minute) to adjust the time.

NOTE:

If you do not press a button within 5 seconds, the clock programming feature will

automatically return to the previous setting.

4. Once the time is set, push and hold the clock button until the time on the LCD display stops

flashing.

TO PROGRAM THE MEMORY BUTTONS

Four FM and four AM radio stations may be independently set. After programming the buttons,

pressing 1, 2, 3, or 4 will instantly change the frequency to the preset station.

1. Turn power on.

2. Set the radio to desired station (see

Tune or Seek Function

).

3. Press and hold one of the desired memory buttons (F). The station setting begins flashing

in the LCD display (G). Continue to hold the button down until the flashing stops. The mem-

ory button is now set.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to set the other memory buttons.

Important Radio Notes

WARNING:

The storage case (M) is designed to hold up to 1 pound of material. Do not

exceed 1 pound.

1. The radio will run up to 8 hours on a single battery charge using an 18 volt battery. Using

batteries of lower voltage will produce less run time.

2. Reception will vary depending on location and strength of radio signal.

3. Certain generators may cause background noise.

4. AM reception will most likely be clearer when powered by a battery pack.

5. To use the auxiliary port (K), plug the output jack from a CD or cassette player into the port

(Fig. 1). The sound from the external source plays through the speakers of the DC011.

MAINTENANCE

Service Notes

This product is not user serviceable. There are no user serviceable parts inside the

radio/charger. Servicing at an authorized service center is required to avoid damage to static
