TIPS FOR BEST RECEPTION
AM – The AM antenna is located inside the cabinet of the unit. If AM reception is weak, change the position
of unit until the internal antenna picks up the strongest signal.
FM – During FM reception, always keep the FM WIRE ANTENNA (#21) fully extended for best performance.
However, if FM reception is weak, try repositioning the unit until you get the best reception.
USING THE LINE IN TO LISTEN TO EXTERNAL AUDIO PLAYER
You may playback your favorite music from your iPod or a portable digital audio player using the Line in
function.
1. Connect the headphone jack of your external device to the LINE IN JACK (#18) at the rear cabinet of
this unit using a stereo cord with a 3.5mm phone plug on either ends. (Note: the stereo cord is not
included)
2. Press the ON/OFF BUTTON (#12) to turn on the radio. It will automatically switch to Line In mode
when a suitable stereo cord is correctly connected.
3. Start playing your external audio device.
4. Slowly increase the volume control of the unit until the desired level is obtained. To avoid output sound
distortion due to overloading, you may need to lower the volume output of your audio device.
Note: the stereo music from your audio device will be converted to a monaural audio output.
5. Turn off your external audio device first when you finish listening.
6. Then unplug the stereo cord from the LINE IN JACK (#18) and normal radio reception will resume.
Note: If the unit is set for wake to radio but with an external player connected to the LINE IN JACK, it will revert
to the beep alarm sound instead.

RESETTING THE UNIT
After you have installed backup batteries and connected the unit to AC power source for the first time, we
