CCRadio - EP
Troubleshooting Guide
The CCRadio -EP will not turn on:
1. Be sure that the batteries are installed correctly.
2. Make sure all batteries are good.
3. If using the AC Adapter, make sure that it is plugged fully into the
power jack.
The CCRadio-EP has poor reception on FM:
1. Fully extend and rotate the FM whip antenna.
2. Adjust the band switch to “FM” instead of “FM ST” which requires a
better signal.
3. Check the “EXT/IN ANTENNA” switch on the back of the radio for
the proper setting.
4. Consider trying a more powerful external FM antenna like C. Craneʼs
FM Reflect Antenna.
The CCRadio-EP has poor reception on AM:
1. Rotate the radio for the best reception.
2. Try positioning the TWIN COIL FERRITE
®
AM FINE TUNING Knob
in the “Normal” position. If the reception still needs improvement,
adjust the knob for best station tuning accuracy.
3. Adjust the MUSIC-VOICE switch to VOICE for best AM audio clarity.
4. Move the radio away from electronic devices like computers and TV
sets.
5. Use the radio on batteries. Sometimes interference can be transmit-
ted to the radio over the AC power lines.
6. Concrete, brick, and metal buildings can greatly reduce radio recep-
tion. Try the radio outside. If the reception is improved, add an exter-
nal AM antenna like C. Craneʼs Twin Coil Ferrite
®
AM Antenna.
