General

Do not allow this unit to be exposed to water, steam or sand. Do not
leave the unit where excessive heat could cause damage such as in
a parked car where the heat from the sun can build up even though
the outside temperature may not seem too high. It is recommended
that the FM band be used where ever possible as better results in
terms of quality and freedom from interference will usually be

obtained than on the MW and LW bands.

Battery

To insert the batteries first open the battery cover (10) by sliding it in
the direction shown by the arrow. Insert two LR03 ( AAA) size
batteries into the compartment. Ensure that batteries are inserted in
accordance with the diagrams shown inside the battery compartment.

Earphones

Plug the earphones supplied into the earphone jack (2) located on
the top of the radio.

Aerials

The earphones act as an FM aerial when plugged into the earphone
socket. The earphone lead should be fully uncoiled for best reception.
There is a separate directional aerial built into the radio for MW and
LW reception. To achieve the best MW/LW reception, it may be
necessary to rotate the radio.

Power On/Off switch

Turn on the radio by setting the power switch (5) to the "On" position.
Return the power switch to the "Off" position to turn off the radio.
