This device generates and uses radio frequency  
(RF) energy, and if not installed and used properly,  
this equipment may cause interference to radio  
and television reception.  
If this equipment does cause interference to radio  
or television reception (which you can determine  
by unplugging the unit), try to correct the  
interference by one or more of the following  
measures:  
• Re-orient the receiving antenna (that is, the  
antenna for the radio or television that is  
“receiving” the interference).  
• Move the unit away from the equipment that is  
receiving interference.  
• Plug the unit into a different wall outlet so that  
the unit and the equipment receiving interference  
are on different branch circuits.  
If these measures do not eliminate the  
interference, please consult your dealer or an  
experienced radio/television technician for  
additional suggestions. Also, the Federal  
Communications Commission has prepared a  
helpful booklet, “How To Identify and Resolve  
Radio TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is

Before you begin  
This clock radio is equipped with a memory  
holding system that can be powered with  
9V battery (not included). The power  
failure protection circuit will not operate  
unless battery is installed.  
Power Failure Indicator  
EN  
When the AC power is interrupted  
(disconnected) for a short period of time,  
both time and alarm settings will change  
(unless optional battery is installed). After  
AC power is restored (reconnected), the  
Digital Display will blink to indicate that  
power was interrupted and you should  
re-adjust the time and alarm settings.  
When normal household power is  
interrupted, or AC cord is unplugged, the  
battery will power the clock radio to keep  
track of time and alarm settings  
programmed into the memory. When the  
battery backup functions, the digital  
display will not light, however, the  
function of alarm still occurs during the  
power interruption if remaining battery  
power is adequate. Normal operation will  
resume after AC power is restored so you  
will not have to reset the time or the  
alarm.  
Install battery as below:  
1. Remove battery compartment door  
(located at the bottom of the radio) by  
applying thumb pressure to area  
indicated on battery door and then lift  
the door out and off the cabinet.  
2. Connect a 9V battery to the connector  
plug.  
3. Insert battery in the compartment and  
replace the compartment door.

TUNING  
AM/FM  
Tuning the Stations  
Antennas  
1. Press ON to turn on the radio.  
2. Slide the FM/AM switch to the desired  
broadcast band.  
AM Antenna - A built-in ferrite rod  
antenna eliminates the need for an out-  
side antenna for AM reception. Rotating  
the unit slightly may improve the recep-  
tion of distant AM stations.  
3. Turn the TUNING knob to select a  
station.  
4. Press OFF to turn off the radio.  
FM antenna - The power cord acts as your  
FM antenna. It picks up moderate to  
strong stations and eliminates the need for  
an external antenna in most strong signal  
areas. Be sure the power cord is stretched  
to its full length. Do not coil or bunch the  
cord together. Changing position of the  
power cord may improve reception.  
Built-In AFC  
The Built In Automatic Frequency Control  
(AFC) works only on FM. It helps reducing  
drift on FM reception and keeping the  
radio locked in on the FM station to which  
it is tuned.  
When tuning in FM stations, you may  
notice that the station you are tuning can  
be well-tuned on two or three nearby  
points on the dial. Always tune carefully  
at the loudest and clearest point.  
Tip:  
You may try to move the  
power cord in order to im-  
prove the reception.
