You can power your TK514 base station from either 120V AC (household)
power from the included AC power adaptor OR with 4 "AA" alkaline or
rechargeable Ni-Cad batteries (not included).
Using the Power Jack and NI / AL Switch
Use the AC power jack to connect the provided AC adaptor, or to charge
rechargeable Ni-Cad batteries while they are installed in the TK514 Base
Station Radio. Note: Alkaline batteries CANNOT be recharged in-unit.
If you choose battery operation, set the NI / AL switch by the type of batteries
you are using. Set to AL for Alkaline or NI for rechargeable Ni-Cad

and/or damage to the radio unit.
