POWER SUPPLY
CAUTION Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure or other unsafe operation. Power Supply Whenever convenient, use the power supply if you want to conserve battery life. Make sure you remove the plug from the set and wall socket before inserting batteries. Batteries (not included) Open the battery compartment and insert six batteries, type R-14, UM-2 or C-cells, (preferably alkaline) with the correct polarity as indicated by the "+" and "�" symbols inside the compartment. Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should be disposed of properly. Incorrect use of batteries can cause electrolyte leakage and will corrode the compartment or cause the batteries to burst. Therefore: � Do not mix battery types: e.g. alkaline with carbon zinc. Only use batteries of the same type for the set. � When inserting new batteries, do not try to mix old batteries with the new ones. � Remove the batteries if the set is not to be used for a long time. Using AC Power 1 Check if the mains voltage, as shown on the type plate located on the bottom of the set, corresponds to your local mains supply. If it does not, consult your dealer or service centre. 2 Connect the mains lead to the AC MAINS inlet and the wall socket. The power supply is now connected and ready for use. 3 To switch off completely, unplug the mains lead from the wall socket. � Unplug the mains lead from the wall socket to protect your set during heavy thunderstorms. The typeplate is located on the bottom of the set

BASIC FUNCTIONS
Switching power on/off: Save energy Whether you are using mains or battery supply, to avoid unnecessary energy consumption always adjust the source selector to off. General operation 1 To select your sound source adjust the source selector to CD/TUNER/OFF. 2 Adjust the sound with the VOLUME and DBB (Dynamic Bass Boost) controls. 3 To switch off the set, adjust the source selector to off position. Note: When the set is switched off the tuner presets will be retained in the set�s memory. Tuner Radio reception 1 Adjust the source selector to TUNER. � Display: shows tu briefly (See 2). 2 Press FM�MW once or more to select the desired waveband. � Display: shows your waveband and the preset number and the frequency of a preset station if already programmed (See 3) 3 Press and hold down � or § briefly to tune to a radio station. Release when the frequency in the display starts to change. � The radio automatically tunes to a radio station of sufficient reception. Display shows Srch during automatic tuning. (See 4) � For FM, pull out the telescopic aerial. Incline and turn the aerial. Reduce its length if the signal is too strong (very close to a transmitter). � For MW (AM) the set is provided with a built-in aerial so the telescopic aerial is not needed. Direct the aerial by turning the whole set.

TUNER
Programming radio stations You can store up to a total of 32 radio stations in the memory: 20 FM and 12 MW(AM). 1 Tune to your desired station (see Radio Reception). 2 Press PROG MODE to activate programming. � Display: prog flashes. (See 5) 3 Press PRESET + or � once or more to allocate a number from 1 to 20 for FM or 1 to 12 for MW(AM). 4 Press PROG MODE again to confirm the setting. � Display: prog disappears, the preset number and the frequency of the preset station are shown. (See 3) 5 Repeat steps 1-4 to store other stations. � You can erase a preset station by storing another frequency in its place. Changing tuning grid (some versions only) In North and South America the frequency step between adjacent channels in the AM and FM band are 10 KHz and 100 KHz respectively. In the rest of the world this step is 9 KHz and 50 KHz. Usually the frequency step has been preset in the factory for your area. 1 Check that the set is completely switched off. 2 To select 9KHz: Simultaneously, press STOP 9 and PRESET � on the set. 3 Switch the set on to TUNER and then release the controls. � To select 10KHz: Repeat steps 1-3 but in step 2, simultaneously, press STOP 9 and PRESET + on the set. � When you tune to radio stations, the display shows tuning in either steps of 9 kHz or 10 kHz. � All preset and autostore stations will be affected and you may need to reprogramme stations.
