Before using the FM radio function
Radio signal reception quality varies substantially depending on where you are using the radio.
Poor reception can often be improved by adjusting the antenna position or orientation, or
moving to a more accessible location for the signal such as a near window.
NOTE
• The supplied earphones function as
an FM antenna. If the earphones are
not connected, the message [Insert
earphone] appears, and FM radio can
not be received.

TIP
• You may not be able to receive FM
radio when indoors or in the shadow of
a building. Reception may be improved
by moving near a window when
indoors, or by moving out of building
shadows.
NOTE
• FM radio cannot be received when
you are beyond a radio station’s
broadcasting range or when the signal
is blocked by mountains or other
topographical obstructions.
• Even when within broadcasting range,
you may not be able to receive radio
broadcasts in locations prone to signal
reception difficulty (such as within
tunnels, underpasses, office buildings,
apartment buildings and building
shadows).
• Do not use a mobile phone, PC, TV
or other electrical appliance near the
voice recorder when using it to listen
to the radio. Such product may cause
noise.
• Using the voice recorder with a
connected AC adapter (such as model
A514) will generate noise. Always use
batteries for the FM radio function.
