Features and Operation Explained — Front of Radio
Introduction
The CCRadio-SW can receive weaker signals, with superior audio, than perhaps any portable
radio ever made. You are given much more control over how the radio works, sounds and
picks up a signal. You can even deliver a digital signal to a computer for decoding. Learning
how the radio works will help you with your audio experience.
Please refer to the Radio Identification diagrams on pages 5-7 as you read through this
instruction manual. Radio controls and their functions are listed numerically in this manual.
NOTE:
The “•” next to a button description on the radio means that button has a dual function.
“Press and hold” briefly to activate the second function. The dual functions are usually done
with the power “off”, while AC power is connected or batteries installed.
POWER
• SLEEP
Q
The “POWER • SLEEP” button has nine operational settings: 90, 60, 45, 30, 15, 10, 5, 1 (min-
utes) and “ON” (continuous)
.
When you press and release the “POWER” button the first time you will see “60” minutes dis-
played for about two seconds. This indicates the radio is set to operate for 60 minutes and
then shut off. A SLEEP icon will also be displayed continuously during this timed playing
mode. When the radio shuts “off”, the SLEEP icon will disappear. This is the radioʼs
“SLEEP” operation. The radio will function with this “60” minute “SLEEP” time limit every time
you turn the radio “on” until you change it to a different one of the nine SLEEP settings.
To change to a different setting, press and release the “POWER • SLEEP” button while any
one of the nine “SLEEP” settings is displayed. They are only displayed for two seconds at a
time. Each press of the button will display the next setting respectively. Stop on the setting you
desire and it will be remembered for your convenience each time you turn the radio “on”. If you
select any one of the sleep settings, except “ON”, the SLEEP icon will be displayed while
the radio is “on”. When “on” is selected, the radio will simply turn on and off when the power
button is pushed.
Pressing the “POWER • SLEEP” button while the radio is operating on any of the settings will
turn the radio off.
DUAL TIME
W
The “DUAL TIME” button has two functions:
1) It toggles between “WORLD” and “LOCAL” time clock with the radio “on” or “off”. The
radio displays the word LOCAL or WORLD indicating which clock time is the default
display time clock. Press and release this button and the alternate time clock will
display its time for two seconds, along with the word LOCAL or WORLD.
