Manual and battery charger needed

Hi,
Are you trying to connect a Columbia to another Columbia or to anther Make of walkie talkie radio?

No two makes are quite the same and slight differences can make all the difference, even if they were the same brand/make, different models can also impact on connectivity.

I hope this answers your query

Cheers,
Peter

Hi,

On you're AC adapter unit, there should, if it's a good one, have a switch with a + & - signs indicating the polarity you require to use.

Further to this, does your radio have an AC recharge point. Some of these units don't have this capability, but in your case it may.

This is usually found on the side of the radio.

If there is no such point, then what you need is to buy rechargeable batteries with the appropriate charger, you can't just use any charger for these batteries, else you'll damage them.

I hope this helps you.

Best regards,
Peter

your local watch repair man can replace the battery or you can go to bestbuy.com or radioshack.com and identify the battery there by entering the watch makers information.

Hello you can recharge the batteries only if the bateries you are using are rechargables, this could be Bat recharg. 2AA or 3AA or a pack.

Sorry no luck with a manual online, this link gives you a few details - but especially all the contact details for CTG who still sell the product so will surely be able to help. http://www.columbiatel.com/html/product/2waycomm/FRS/sub_page/FRS22-SPR.htm Hope this helps :) please let us know if CTG support are helpful for future reference.

Take a look at the plug on the end of the lead which comes from the charger then see if you can see a corresponding socket somewhere on the watch. You may have to remove a small plastic or rubber cover to find it or it may be behind a small door. It's got to fit somewhere, just keep looking. BMW
