REAR OF THE UNIT
Swing out support
– Swing out this support to bring the unit
into a tilted position.
Battery compartment
– For six 1.5 V batteries (IEC LR6,
UM-3)
AERIALS
Telescopic aerial
for FM and SW reception.
• When the aerial base is completely retracted, the telescopic
aerial can be tilted and swivelled into the position giving
best reception.
• For SW reception, fully extend the aerial and position it
vertically.
– Due to the much better propagation conditions in the
evening and night hours with respect to daytime reception,
interferences may occur during these hours
• These interferences can be reduced by partially pushing in
the telescopic aerial.
Please note:
Touching the telescopic aerial will affect the FM and SW
reception quality.
Ferrite rod aerial
for MW and LW reception (built-in).
• Turn the unit around its vertical axis to find the position
giving best reception.
POWER SUPPLY

–
.
• Connect the mains unit to the
DC 9V
socket. This
disconnects the inserted bateries.
No responsibility can be accepted for damage due to
incorrect mains operation
Remove the batteries if you intend to operate the unit
permanently on the mains.
Battery operation
• With six 1.5 Volt batteries, type IEC LR 6 / UM-3 / AA.
• We recommend the use of alkaline-manganese batteries
with low mercury percentage or no mercury at all.
• Disconnect the plug of the mains unit from the DC 9V socket.
• Open the cover of the battery compartment (at back of unit).
• Insert the batteries with correct polarity (see scheme above
battery compartment).
• Observe correct order of batteries when fitting them.
Battery Check
When the batteries get
weak, the indication
BATT.CHECK
will
flash in the display.
When the radio is
switched on, it will
switch off after a short time.
Attention
• Remove exhausted batteries immediately from the unit!
• If the unit is not to be used for long periods, also remove
new batteries!
• No responsibility can be accepted for damage caused by
leaking batteries.
Data Protection (Mains and Battery Operation)
