it is damp.
• Make sure ventilation around the adapter is not
restricted while it is in use.

with your IMR.
• Inspect the AC adapter before use. Do not use it if
there are any signs of damage or deterioration.
• Make sure the connector is firmly connected.
• Avoid mechanical strain to cables and connectors.
• In the event of overloading, the AC adapter is designed
to be fail-safe and may stop functioning.
• Do not try to use the AC adapter to power any other
equipment.

Turn on while using battery power:
• Press and hold the button for three seconds (until the
Power LED turns green) to turn the radio on.
Turn off while using battery power:
• Press and hold the button for three seconds (until the
Power LED turns white) to turn the radio off.

• The radio is always on when using the external power.
When the radio is using external power (connected to
an energy source with the USB cable) pressing the
button turns the power LED green until the button is
released, but it does not turn the radio off.
LED status indicators
Two multi-color LED status indicators are located on the top
of the radio. These indicators are labeled with a power icon
and a communication icon . The color and
illumination of the LED lights provide feedback about the
Itron Mobile Radio's status.
The LED lights have two patterns for displaying different
states.
• Solid. LED is on continuously.
• Flash. LED turns off and on at a constant interval.
