If it fits, you can place the external device in the storage
compartment (6) while charging. If the external device heats
up while charging, leave the cover (7) of the media compart-
ment open to protect the external device against overheat-
ing.
Once the charging process is complete or you have removed
the USB cable, close the cover (7) again to protect the radio
against dirt.
Alternating Current Connection
You can operate other external electrical devices using the
alternating current connections. Plug sockets can vary de-
pending on country-specific standards.
Power can only be supplied to external devices using the al-
ternating current connection when the radio is connected to
the mains; it is not possible using an inserted battery. If the
radio is connected to the mains supply, the green control
light (3) will light up to confirm this.
The total maximum permitted current consumption of all
connected electrical devices must not exceed the value
stated in the following table (also see the labelling on the
housing under the cover caps (4)):

Open the cover cap (4) of the alternating current connection
and insert the plug of the external electrical device into a
plug socket (5) on the radio.
Working Advice
Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the Battery
Protect the battery against moisture and water.
Only store the battery within a temperature range of −20 to
50 °C. Do not leave the battery in your car in the summer, for
example.
Occasionally clean the ventilation slots on the battery using a
soft brush that is clean and dry.
A significantly reduced operating time after charging indic-
ates that the battery has deteriorated and must be replaced.
Follow the instructions on correct disposal.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Keep the radio clean to ensure good, safe operation.
In order to avoid safety hazards, if the power supply cord
needs to be replaced, this must be done by Bosch or by an
