suitable 6V DC mains adaptor (not supplied).
Batteries

pressing in and sliding it downwards.
2. Insert the batteries 4 x ‘AA’ LR6 (Not provided)
3. Replace the battery compartment cover (4) by sliding it upwards.
Ensure correct battery polarity is observed.
If the unit is not to be used for a prolonged period of time, remove the batteries
in order to avoid battery leakage.
Dispose of batteries safely.
External Power Supply (not included)
The radio can also be operated with a 6V DC mains adaptor with a negative centre
pin output. Simply connect the adaptor output into the external power input socket
(13).

Radio Operation
To turn the radio on/off
1. To turn the radio on, slide the Power On/Off switch (9) upwards.
2. To turn the radio off, slide the Power On/Off switch (9) downwards.
To select desired waveband
1 . Select the desired waveband FM,MW, LW or SW with the waveband
selector switch (7).
2. If selecting SW, proceed by operating the short waveband selector
switch (6) for SW bands 1-6.
Tuning
1. When tuning in an FM or SW programme, the telescopic aerial (3)
should be fully extended and then rotated for the best reception.
2. Tune to the desired station by turning the tuning knob (10) to the
desired station.
3. As a station is tuned in, the LED tuning indicator (8) will illuminate to
indicate precise tuning. This may vary with radio signal strength. The
tuning indicator may not operate correctly or may vary in brightness
on SW due to signal levels on SW being variable.
4. The MW and LW bands use an internal directional aerial which is
positioned inside the radio itself. Rotate the radio for best reception.
5. The volume control (5) and the tone control switch (12) should be
adjusted as required.
Using Earphones (not included)
The radio has the facility of an earphone socket (14) for private listening.
Earphones with an impedance of 8-32 Ohms are recommended. When the
jack is in use, the built in speaker is automatically disconnected.
