User Manual for Sencor SRD 1000SCL Emergency Radio

Quick guide from the manual

Before using the Sencor SRD 1000SCL for the first time, it is recommended to fully charge the internal battery using the USB-C port. If the device has not been used for more than 60 days, use the hand crank for 3 to 5 minutes to activate the battery. Always ensure the rubber covers for the ports are securely closed to maintain the IPX4 water resistance rating.

Device Description

The device features a telescopic antenna, a hand crank for manual charging, a solar panel that doubles as a reading light, a flashlight, and various control knobs for volume and tuning. Ports include a USB-A output for power bank functions and a USB-C input for charging the device.

Charging Methods

The device can be charged in three ways:

• USB-C: The recommended method for fast and reliable charging. Use a 5V/1A adapter. The LED indicator will show charging progress (25%, 50%, 75%, 100%).
• Hand Crank: Rotate the handle clockwise or counter-clockwise. Essential for activating the battery after long periods of inactivity.
• Solar Panel: Place the device in direct sunlight. This is a supplementary charging method and not a primary source.

Warning: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent overheating and damage.

Power Bank Function

The device can charge external devices via the USB-A port. Remove the rubber cover, connect your charging cable, and begin charging. Note that this is an auxiliary function and will not fully charge modern smartphones; the USB-A port does not support fast charging protocols.

Flashlight and Reading Light

Flashlight: Press and hold the button to turn on. Short press to cycle through 4 modes: Main LED (spotlight), Side LED, Main + Side LED, and Off.

Reading Light: Locate the notch on the solar panel (near the antenna) to lift it. The reading light turns on automatically when the panel is opened and turns off when closed.

SOS Function

Press and hold the SOS button to trigger an acoustic signal and flashing light. Press again to turn off. This function is for emergency use only.

Radio Operation

Turn the volume knob clockwise to switch on the radio and adjust volume. Use the FM/AM switch to select the band and the tuning knob to find your station. Extend and rotate the antenna for better reception.

Battery Replacement

The battery is replaceable. On the back, unscrew the battery cover, remove the old cell, and replace it with a new one of the same technical parameters. Ensure correct polarity (+/-) and securely fasten the cover. If unsure, contact an authorized service center.
