When the “Alert” function is on, the radio will automatically broadcast NOAA
emergency weather alerts for your area such as hurricanes, tornadoes and severe
storms. Plus, the FRX5 S also features S.A.M.E. technology (Specic Area Message
Encoding) for extra alert power. Just enter your S.A.M.E. county code and if there’s a
warning, watch or advisory you’ll see it—with ashing red, orange or green lights—and
hear about it, too. You can set up to 25 locations so you’ll be safe, wherever you are.

QUAD-POWER
The FRX5 S powers up in four fabulous ways—via solar panel,
hand crank, built-in rechargeable lithium battery, or alkaline
batteries.
ALL-POWERFUL
The super-sized (and detachable) solar panel will charge the
battery fully in 5-6 hours. Looking for alternative sources
of energy? Crank the hand turbine for one minute and you’ll
produce enough power for 10-15 minutes of music, news and
weather or four minutes of talk time. You can also use the
micro-USB cable to charge the FRX5 S’ built-in rechargeable
battery or pop in a couple of AAA batteries if you want to go
old school.
SAY HELLO
To charge your smartphone or tablet,
simply plug it into the 5V 2.1A USB port.
Power will automatically “dump charge”
to your device, just like plugging into the
wall. The FRX5 S will fully charge most
smartphones once.
LIGHT THE NIGHT
Shine the bright LED ashlight to nd your
way. Use the glow-in-the-dark locator and
illuminated buttons when you’re in the
dark. And for big-time emergencies, ash
the red emergency beacon.
