6 TURNING THE RADIO ON AND OFF
7 SIGNAL STRENGTH INDICATOR
When you are listening to stations, the signal strength meter, in the upper right area of the display, will
show the strength level of reception.
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 sec-
tion titled USING THE SLEEP TIMER.
2. WITHOUT TIMER: A long press of approxi-
mately 3 seconds of the ‘POWER & SLEEP’ but-
ton turns the radio on without engaging the
automatic 90-minute timer feature, causing
the radio to play indefinitely 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, abbreviat-
ed MHz. Use the outer ‘fast’ tuning knob to find
stations, fine tuning with the inner ‘slow’ knob
when needed. When Automatic Frequency Con-
trol (AFC) is ON, strong signals will automatically
be captured and given precedence over weaker
ones. With AFC turned OFF, the weak stations
in between 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
amplified 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 stereophonic 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.
