Guide to Features

Front Panel

1. VOLUME KNOB: Rotate the volume knob to the right to increase the volume or to the left to decrease the volume. This knob also controls the volume of the headphone output.
2. OFF/FM/AM/AUX KNOB: Turn the knob one click to the right to hear the FM band, two clicks to the right to hear the AM band, or three clicks to the right to select the auxiliary input.
3. TUNING KNOB: Rotate the analog tuning dial to the right or to the left to adjust the FM (upper half of dial) or AM (lower half of dial) frequency range.
4. TUNING INDICATOR: Brightest when best tuning has been achieved. Some listenable AM stations will not light the tuning indicator and should be tuned by ear for the clearest signal. This light may or may not remain lit when in the AUX position depending upon the position of the AM dial.
5. POWER INDICATOR: Glows when the source knob is in any position other than Off.

Rear Panel

1. 12VDC/1.5A: This input is for use with an optional 1.5A fused, 12VDC adapter, for operation in a boat or camper. The connector must be 5.5mm/2.1mm center positive.
2. FM ANTENNA SWITCH: Switch between internal and external FM antennas. This switch has no affect on AM reception. In some cases, FM reception may be improved by setting this antenna switch to External.
3. EXTERNAL FM CONNECTION: When listening to FM, depending on your country, slide the included wire antenna over this F connector, or adjust this telescoping antenna and position it for best reception. In strong FM signal locations, reducing the antenna's length may provide better reception. When the unit is not in use or when listening to AM, keep the antenna retracted to protect it. This antenna has no affect on AM reception. For more, see the section marked "Reception".
4. EXTERNAL AM CONNECTION: In some cases, AM reception may be improved by connecting an external AM antenna (not included) to this jack, which accepts a 3.5 mm male stereo mini connector. For more, see the section marked Reception.
5. HEADPHONE OUT: Connect a headset (not included) to this variable stereo output for private listening. The headset will mute the primary speaker. The headset's volume is adjusted using the volume knob. This stereo output accepts a 3.5 mm stereo male mini connector. Avoid using headphones at high volume levels to prevent possible hearing damage.
6. AUX IN: To hear audio from another device, such as a CD player, MP3 player, or computer, connect said device's audio output to this stereo input and switch the front source knob to Aux. Switching to the Aux position does not turn on the connected device. This stereo input accepts a 3.5 mm stereo male mini connector. The left and right stereo signal is summed to mono. Note you may need to adjust the volume level differently for an auxiliary device than the level used for radio listening.
7. REC OUT: You can record from the Model One radio by connecting a cassette deck's audio input (or other recording device) to this fixed level stereo output. You can also use the Model One radio as a high performance analog tuner by connecting it to the audio input of a preamplifier or integrated amplifier. The primary speaker will not be muted when using this output. This jack accepts a 3.5 mm stereo male mini connector.

Cleaning

Never use any harsh cleansers or solvents on your radio. Avoid spray-on waxes. Unplug the Model One radio prior to cleaning. The face may be cleaned with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Painting or staining the wood cabinet will void your warranty.
NOTE: Tivoli Audio cabinets use real wood veneers. Since natural wood varies greatly, it is not possible to achieve an exact wood color/grain match between models. You may also notice the wood darken over time with exposure to sunlight. Again, this is normal for real wood.
It is also possible dyed veneers such as blue, red, etc., could fade from exposure to sunlight. This is not covered under the warranty.
