There are two ways to turn the radio on, with
the 90-minute timer feature or without the
90-minute timer. To turn it off at any time,
press the ‘POWER & SLEEP’ button for about
one second.
Note: When SLEEP Times is off, the clock
always shows in the display.
1. WITH TIMER: A quick, short press of the
‘POWER & SLEEP’ button turns the radio
on. ‘90’ shows in the display for about
three seconds, then the radio’s normal
frequency display shows. Turning it on this
way causes it play for 90 minutes, after which
its timer turns it off automatically (to minimize
excess battery drain). To change this automatic
turn-off time from 90 minutes to a shorter time,
see the section titled USING THE SLEEP TIMER.
2. WITHOUT TIMER: A long press of approxi-
mately 3 seconds of the ‘POWER & SLEEP’ button
turns the radio on without engaging the auto-
matic 90-minute timer feature, causing the radio
to play indenitely when using the AC adaptor,
and turning off only when the batteries drain or
the radio is turned off.
8 TUNING IN FM STATIONS
Fully extend the telescopic antenna and turn on the
radio. Switch the BAND WIDTH FM AFC selector to
the FM AFC ON position. FM appears in the display,
as well as FM frequency numbers in the range of
about 87-108 megahertz, abbreviated MHz. Use
the outer ‘fast’ tuning knob to nd stations, ne
tuning with the inner ‘slow’ knob when needed.
When Automatic Frequency Control (AFC) is ON,
strong signals will automatically be captured and
given precedence over weaker ones. With AFC
turned OFF, the weak stations inbetween stronger
ones will be tuned in easier. AFC ON is generally the
preferred position.
• Placing the STEREO MONO switch in the
STEREO position enables FM reception in stereo.
Note: The stereo is heard from earphones or
headphones and it is also heard from the stereo
line-level outputs when feeding their output to
amplied speakers or a stereo system.
• Placing the STEREO MONO switch in the
MONO position will improve the quality of a poorly
received station, but it will not be heard in stereo-
phonic sound from the line level outputs.
• When listening through the built-in speaker,
stereophonic sound is not heard. Only monaural
sound is heard from the built-in speaker.
• If a station is not being received clearly,
swiveling the telescopic antenna may result in
improved reception.
