UNPACKING AND SET UP

• Remove the radio from the carton and remove all packing material from the

radio. We suggest that you save the packing material, if possible, in the unlikely

event that your radio ever needs to be returned for service. The original carton

and packing material is the only safe way to pack your radio to protect it from

damage in transit.

• Remove the CD protective card on the CD mechanism and any descriptive

labels or stickers on the front or top of the cabinet. Do not remove any labels or

stickers from the back or bottom of the cabinet.

• Note the serial number on the bottom of your radio and write this number in the

space provided on Page 2 of this manual.

• Place your radio on a level surface such as a table, desk or shelf, convenient to

an AC outlet, out of direct sunlight, and away from sources of excess heat, dirt,

dust, moisture, humidity, or vibration.

• Unwind the AC power cord and extend it to its full length. Unwind the FM lead

wire antenna and extend it to its full length.

POWER SOURCE

This radio is designed to operate on normal 120V 60Hz AC power only. Do not

attempt to operate the radio on any other power source. You could cause damage

to the radio that is not covered by your warranty.

This radio should be connected to an AC outlet that is always ' live' . Do not connect

it to an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch. When the power to the radio is

interrupted, the built in lithium battery takes over to maintain the time and alarm

settings. To maximize the life of the lithium battery keep the radio connected to a

' live' AC outlet at all times.

You will note that this system is equipped with a polarized AC power plug having

one blade wider than the other. This is a safety feature. If this plug does not fit into

your existing AC outlet, do not try to

defeat this safety feature by filing the

wide blade to make it fit into your

outlet. If this plug will not fit into your

outlet, you probably have an out-

dated non-polarized AC outlet. You

should have your outlet changed by

a qualified licensed electrician.
