Power-Related Instruction
AC Power
The Safari's universal switching power operates between 90VAC ~
265 VAC. Connect the AC power cord and turn on power. AC power
supplies electricity to unit itself as well as to the internal batteries.
You may operate unit and charge the batteries simultaneously.
DC Power 12V ~ 24V
There are 2 ways to use DC power -- through a DC adaptor
or through the Safari's internal DC batteries. On fully charged
batteries, the Safari can operate continuously for 8 to 10 hours in
standby mode (CD/USB player and two receivers are turned on).
Battery Status LEDs
Note: To use the Safari's internal batteries, ensure that the Battery
Power and Charging switch is in the ON position. If the battery
wires are disconnected or if the Battery Power and Charging switch
is OFF, you may still use the unit in AC power mode.
The Safari 2000 has a 3-LED battery status indicator. When
charging, the red "Charging" LED will flash. When the battery
if full, the green "Battery Full" LED will display without flashing.
The blue "Power" LED will flash if the battery has less than 15%
power remaining.
