Radio

Slide ON/OFF/RADIO(WAKE)/
ALARM(WAKE) to ON to switch on
radio. Slide to OFF to switch off radio.
Switching band
Slide the band switch AM/FM to select
FM or AM band.
Tuning the radio
Rotate the TUNING knob on the
right of the unit to adjust the radio
frequency with reference to the tuning
dial scale. Note that the unit of AM
frequency shown on the tuning knob
"x10kHz 170" is equivalent to 1700 kHz.
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.
AM antenna
A built-in ferrite rod antenna eliminates
the need for an outside antenna for
AM reception. Rotating the unit slightly
may improve reception of distant AM
stations.
