Hi Mo and Ibrahim

I now have the back off, battery inserted, and charging the unit.  So far 
though I have received no DAB reception, only FM.  We live in a really poor DAB 
area, so this may not work for me at all, but I'll try for a while.

Thanks for all help.

Kind Regards,

Jackie Brown

Hi Jackie.

It's not that difficult to prize the back cover off, but don't be afraid to use 
a little force, especially the first time you remove the cover as it will be 
quite stiff.  I've removed the cover of my radio a couple of times since to 
loosen it a little, since I plan to carry and use a spare battery from time to 
time.  persist, perceiver and you won't be disappointed.  If you aren't able to 
prize the cover up, use a flat headed screwdriver and slip it in to the upper 
most groove when the radio is on it front on a flat surface.  Good luck!

I received mine this morning, and the sad and frustrating thing right away is 
that we can't get the back off it to even insert the battery.  I have never 
seen anything so tight or awkward to remove, it just shouldn't be that 
difficult.  We have both tried to take the back off, but it won't budge!

Kind Regards,

thanks interesting,   I don't know if I will get my money back or ask
for a replacement.  but I suppose some radios will be faulty.

Hi,   Ok seems I might have the 1 faulty radio!   there are no contacts 
in the radio that the battery can get it's connection to.   and 
therefore it can't supply the power! the battery shakes around in 
the case.

Hi. Insert your finger nails in to the groove on the very edge 
of the bottom of the radio. the cover should lift up and off. if 
you ly the radio flat on its front there are 2 grooves that 
you'll feel if you feel with your nails. its the top most cover

Hi Kevin.

Feel for the contacts. Then feel the ends of the battery and 
match the contacts in the radio to the holes in the battery.
insert the battery against the contact holes and push firmly 
in to place. that's about as much as I can describe via email 
unfortunately... imagine you're inserting a battery in to a 
mobile phone. its not that flimsy, you should be fine.

I hope this helps?

this little unit is a bit flimsy so don't want to force anything.
