UNPACKING
AND SET UP
.
Remove the radio
from the carton and
remove all
packing
material from the
radio. We suggest that
you
save the
packing
material,
if
possible,
in the unlikely
event
that
your
radio ever
needs to be
returned for service.
The
original carton
and
packing
material is the only safe
way to
pack
your
radio to
protect
it from
damage
in transit.
.
Remove
any
descriptive
labels or stickers on
the front or top of
the cabinet. Do
not remove any
labels or stickers
from the back or
bottom of the cabinet.
.
Note the serial
number on the bottom of
your
radio and
write this number in the
space
provided
on Page 2 of this
manual.
.
Place
your
radio
on
a level surface such
as a table,
desk or shelf, convenient to
an AC outlet, out of
direct sunlight, and away
from sources of
excess heat, dirt,
dust,
moisture, humidity, or
vibration.
NOTE:
Do not
place
this
radio
on a
metal shelf, metal table, or
other metal
surface
as this
may interfere with
AM reception.
.
Unwind the
AC
power
cord
and extend
it
to
its full
length. The FM
antenna
is
built in to this cord.
lt must be fully extended
to
provide
the best
FM reception.
POWER SOURGE
This radio is designed to operate
on
normal 120V 60Hz AC
power
only.
Do not
attempt to operate the
radio on any other
power
source.
You
could
cause damage
to the radio that
is not
covered
by
your
warranty.
This radio should be connected
to an
AC
outlet
that
is
always
'live'.
Do not connect
it to
an
outlet that
is
controlled
by a
wall
switch,
When the
power
to the radio
is
interrupted, the built in lithium battery
takes over
to maintain the time and alarm
settings.
To maximize the
life of the
lithium
battery
keep the radio connected to a
'live'AC
outlet at
all times
You will note that this system
is
equipped
with a
polarized
AC
power plug
having
one blade
wider than the other,
This
is a safety feature.
lf
this
plug
does
not fit into
your
existing
AC outlet, do
not try to defeat
this safety feature by
filing
the
wide blade to
make it fit into
your
outlet.
lf this
plug
will not fit into
your
outlet,
you
probably
have an out-
dated
non-polarized AC outlet.
You
should
have
your
outlet changed
by
a
qualified
licensed electrician.
