PREPARATION

SUPPLYING POWER

Using Internal Battery Power

When you use batteries, your radio requires four AA batteries for opera-

tion. It also uses two AAA batteries for clock and memory station backup.

We recommend alkaline batteries, such as RadioShack Cat. No. 23-552

(for AA) and 23-555 (for the AAA size).

Caution: Always use fresh batteries of the required size and recommend-

ed type.

Follow these steps to install batteries.

1. Slide the battery compartment

cover in the direction of the arrow

and remove the cover.

2. Put the two AAA batteries into the

battery compartment on top of the

attached ribbon, as indicated by

the polarity symbols (+ and –)

inside the compartment.

3. Put the four AA batteries into the

battery compartment as indicated

by the polarity symbols (+ and –)

marked outside and above the

compartment.

4. Replace the cover.

If the radio operates erratically or does not receive strong FM stations, re-

place the AA batteries. Replace the AAA batteries about every six

months.

Caution: Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or

bury them.

Using AC Power

To power the radio with AC power, you need an AC adapter such as

RadioShack Cat. No. 273-1663 (not supplied).

Cautions:

• You must use an AC adapter that supplies at least 6 volts and delivers

at least 300 milliamps. Its center tip must be set to negative and its

plug must fit the radio’s DC 6V jack. The recommended adapter meets

these specifications. Using an adapter that does not meet these spec-

ifications could damage the radio or the adapter.

• Always plug the adapter into the radio before you plug it into the AC

outlet. Always unplug the AC adapter from the AC outlet before you

unplug it from the radio.

1. Set the adapter’s voltage

switch to 6 volts.

2. Attach the adapter’s 5.5 mm

outer diameter/2.1 mm inner

diameter adaptaplug to the

adapter, with TIP set to –.

3. Insert the adaptaplug into the radio’s DC 6V jack.

4. Plug the adapter into a standard AC outlet.

Using Vehicle Battery Power

To power the radio from your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter socket, you need

a DC adapter such as RadioShack Cat. No. 273-1802 (not supplied).

Cautions:

• You must use a DC adapter that supplies at least 6 volts and delivers

at least 300 milliamps. Its center tip must be set to negative and its

plug must fit the radio’s DC 6V jack. The recommended adapter meets

these specifications. Using an adapter that does not meet these spec-

ifications could damage the radio or the adapter.

illustration

• Always plug the adapter into the radio before you plug it into the ciga-

rette-lighter socket. Always unplug the DC adapter from the cigarette-

lighter socket before you unplug it from the radio.

1. Set the adapter’s voltage switch to

6V.

2. Insert the adapter’s barrel plug

into the radio’s DC 6V jack.

3. Insert the adapter’s cigarette-

lighter plug into the vehicle’s ciga-

rette-lighter socket.

Note: If the radio does not operate when you turn it on, remove the DC

adapter from your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter socket and check the socket

for debris. Also check the fuse in your adapter and your vehicle’s fuse

block.

SETTING THE CLOCK

You can use Time 1 and Time 2 to keep track of the time in two different

time zones.

The alarm works only from the Time 1 setting.

Follow these steps to set the clock.

1. Turn off the radio, then press TIME 1/2 to

select Time 1 or Time 2. 1or 2appears.

2. Press MEM/TIME. The display flashes.

3. Within 5 seconds, repeatedly press (or hold

down) HOUR to set the hour.

4. Repeatedly press (or hold down) MIN to set the minute.

Notes:

•PM appears when the clock displays a PM hour. AM appears when

the clock displays an AM hour.

• When you change the minute setting for one time zone, it automat-

ically changes for both.

USING EARPHONES OR HEADPHONES

You can use the built-in speaker to listen to the radio. Or, you can use

stereo earphones or headphones (not supplied) with 1/8-inch plug to listen

privately.

Insert the earphones’ plug into the radio’s jack.

Note: The built-in speaker disconnects when you connect earphones or

headphones.

Listening Safely

To protect your hearing, following these guidelines when you use ear-

phones or headphones.

• Set the volume to the lowest setting before you begin listening. After

you begin listening, adjust the volume to a comfortable level.

• Do not listen at extremely high volume levels. Extended high volume

listening can lead to permanent hearing loss.

• Once you set the volume, do not increase it. Over time, your ears

adapt to the volume level, so a volume level that does not cause dis-

comfort might still damage your hearing.

Traffic Safety

Do not wear earphones/headphones while operating a motor vehicle or

riding a bicycle. This can create a traffic hazard and could be illegal in

some areas.

Even though some earphones/headphones let you hear some outside

sounds when listening at normal volume levels, they still can present a

traffic hazard.

illustration

USING THE STAND

You can use the radio’s stand to set the radio at an angle so you can eas-

ily see the display. Simply lift the stand away from the back of the radio

and set the radio on a flat surface.

4. If you selected the FM band, set SENS (Sensitivity) to

DX or LOC.
