DEACTIVATING THE ALARM
Press-and-release the POWER/STANDBY button until 'STANDBY' no longer
appears in the display. Then press-and-release the TIMER button until
'TIMER' disappears from the display.
HOW TO SET THE SLEEP TIMER
The sleep timer allows the radio to play for a specified number of minutes
before it turns off. It operates independently of the alarm feature. This is done
with the SLEEP button and can be done with the radio turned on or off. The
first press-and-release of the SLEEP button sets the sleep timer for 60 min-
utes (60 appears in the display). Each successive press-and-release reduces the
time to 50, 40, 30, 20, 10 and 0 minutes. The radio will automatically turn off
after playing for the selected time period. Selecting 0 minutes simply deacti-
vates the sleep timer.
USING YOUR SHORTWAVE LISTENING
Thoroughly read the SHORTWAVE LISTENING GUIDE included with your radio. It
completely explains everything needed to successfully enjoy shortwave listening.
Once you have read about shortwave "bands", use the examples below to try
out your radio's shortwave abilities. Refer to pages 6 through 9 of the SHORT-
WAVE LISTENING GUIDE.
Note:
your radio shows shortwave frequencies in megahertz (MHz).
HOW TO TUNE AROUND IN A SHORTWAVE BAND
Let's use a specific example to learn how to "tune around" in a shortwave
band and find stations. It's really no different from tuning around in the AM
and FM bands for finding local stations. We will use the shortwave 31 meter
band, an evening band, in the example below, but you can substitute any other
band based on it's suitability for the time of day that you are listening, e.g., 19
meters during daylight hours. Refer to pages 6 through 9 of the SHORTWAVE
LISTENING GUIDE.
