5. Setup
5.1 Iċċarġjar inizjali
Before first use, it is recommended to fully charge the internal 12000 mAh battery. Connect the provided Type-C charging cable to the radio's Type-C input port and the other end to a USB power adapter (not included) or a computer USB port. The charging indicator light will illuminate during charging and turn off when fully charged.
5.2 AAA Battery Installation (Optional)
The radio can also be powered by 3 AAA batteries (not included) as an alternative power source. Open the battery compartment cover on the back of the radio, insert 3 AAA batteries according to the polarity markings, and close the cover securely. Ensure the power source switch is set to "AAA" when using these batteries.
6. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
6.1 Tħaddim tar-Radju (AM/FM)
- Estendi l-antenna teleskopika għal riċeviment ottimali.
- Turn the Volume knob clockwise to power on the radio and adjust the desired volume level.
- Use the Band Selector switch to choose between "FM", "AM", or "WB" (Weather Band, if available on your model).
- Rotate the Tuning knob to scan for radio stations. The frequency display will indicate the current station.
- For best reception, adjust the antenna position and length.

6.2 Sorsi tal-Enerġija
The ROCAM CR1030 offers multiple ways to power the device and charge its internal battery:
- Internal Rechargeable Battery (12000 mAh): The primary power source, charged via USB-C, solar, or hand crank.
- Crank tal-idejn: Rotate the hand crank clockwise or counter-clockwise at a steady pace (approximately 120-150 RPM) to generate power. A few minutes of cranking can provide power for radio operation or a short burst of light.
- Panel Solari: Place the radio with the solar panel facing direct sunlight. The solar panel charges the internal battery. Charging efficiency depends on sunlight intensity.
- Input tat-Tip C: Connect the radio to a USB power source using the provided Type-C cable.
- Batteriji AAA: As described in Section 5.2, 3 AAA batteries can be used as an alternative power source.
