INTRODUCTION
The people at Cambridge SoundWorks hope you enjoy
your new high-performance SoundWorks Radio CD
740. Your new radio has great FM stereo sound and
plays useful AM band stations. It stores 16 FM station
presets along with 8 AM station presets. An integral,
slot-load disc player plays audio CDs and MP3 files on
CD-ROM. The large 32-character display and full-func-
tion remote makes radio operation easy from across
the room.
The SoundWorks Radio CD 740 displays three types of
supplementary text:
• Radio Data Service (RDS) FM station text
• CD-text
• “ID3” text stored in most MP3 files.
An automatic dimmer function reduces display bright-
ness in dark rooms while maintaining good legibility in
bright light. An internal long-life power cell maintains
the current time accurately many years. By inserting a
9V battery (not supplied), a user ensures that an acti-
vated wakeup function will work even during a power
outage.
Front and rear inputs allow easy connection of audio
program sources (like portable MP3 and cassette
players). A Record Output lets you send the current
audio program signal to other devices.
A convenient JOG button lets you select from a variety
of secondary adjustments (Bass and Treble, Snooze
time and Text display modes, among others).
