Battery operation
1. Slide the battery cover catch in the direction of the arrow. Open the battery cover.
2. Fit six LR14 (C size) batteries into the spaces in the compartment. Take care to ensure all batteries are inserted with the correct polarity as shown next to the battery compartment. Replace the battery cover.
3. Reduced power, distortion and a 'stuttering' sound are all signs that the batteries may need replacing. If your MP3 CD radio is not to be used for a prolonged period of time, remove the batteries to avoid damage by battery leakage.
• We recommend for economy that your MP3 CD radio is used on the mains whenever possible with battery operation for occasional or stand-by use only.
IMPORTANT: The batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fi re or the like. After use, disposable batteries should if possible be taken to a suitable recycling centre. On no account should batteries be disposed of by incineration.
Mains operation
1. Place your MP3 CD radio on a fl at surface.
2. Plug the mains lead into the AC mains socket located towards the rear of the unit ensuring that the plug is pushed fully into the socket.
3. Plug the other end into a mains wall socket and switch on.
IMPORTANT: The mains plug is used as the means of connecting the
radio to the mains supply. The mains socket used for the radio must remain accessible during normal use. In order to disconnect the radio from the mains completely, the mains plug should be removed from the mains socket outlet completely.

Compact discs
Use only Digital Audio CDs which have the symbol.
Never write on a CD or attach any sticker to the CD. Always hold the CD at the edge and store it in its box after use with the label facing up.
To remove dust and dirt, breathe on the CD and wipe it with a soft, lint free cloth in a straight line from the centre towards the edge.
Cleaning agents may damage the CD.
Do not expose the CD to rain, moisture, sand, or to excessive heat. (e.g. from heating equipment or in motor cars parked in the sun).
CD-R/CD-RW discs
Your MP3 CD radio can playback CD-DA format audio CD-R/CD-RW discs that have been fi nalised* upon completion of recording.
Your MP3 CD radio may fail to playback some CD-R/CD-RW discs due to poor recording and a wide variation in quality of the CD-R/CD-RW disc.
*Finalisng enables a CD-R/CD-RW disc to playback on audio CD players such as your Swallow 2.
Note: If the unit is in the CD stop mode position for more than 15 minutes it will automatically switch to the standby mode. The operation indicator and the LCD will go off in such a case. To use the unit again switch on the unit.

MP3/WMA Mode
The Swallow 2 is able to play CD-R and CD-RW discs containing MP3/ WMA fi les. Files must be created at a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.
In MP3/WMA mode the terms 'album' and 'fi le' are very important. 'Album' corresponds to a folder on a PC, 'File' to a PC or a CD-DA track. The device reads MP3/WMA fi les with a maximum of 255 fi les per album. An MP3/WMA CD may not contain more than 512 fi les or albums in total.
The device sorts albums, or the fi les on an album, by name into alphabetical order. If you wish to order them differently, change the name of the fi le or album and put a number before the name.
When burning CD-R and CD-RWs with audio fi les, various problems may arise which could lead to interference in playback. This can be caused by faulty software or hardware settings or by the CD being used. Should such problems arise, contact the customer services of your CD burner or software manufacturer or look for relevant information, for example on the internet. When you are making audio CDs, observe all legal guidelines and ensure that the copyright of third parties is not infringed.

USB mode
This section describes how to use your radio to access and playback your audio fi les via USB memory devices.
The Swallow 2 has been tested with a range of USB memory devices up to 32GB. However there are many different USB memory devices available and not all devices can be guaranteed to work in the Swallow 2. Memory must use the FAT or FAT 32 fi ling system in order to operate in the unit.
Important: Your radio is designed to work with USB fl ash memory devices. It is not intended to be connected to hard disk drives or any other type of USB device.
Audio formats supported for playback are MP3 and WMA. Playback does not support fi les encoded using WMA lossless, WMA voice, WMA 10 professional, nor fi les of any format which have DRM protection.
The USB socket is located on the rear right hand side of the radio.
Inserting and removing a USB memory device
1. Carefully insert a USB memory device into the USB socket. To remove the USB memory device simply pull the device out.
Cautions
In order to minimise the risk of damage to your radio or USB memory device, please place the unit so that the device cannot be easily knocked while it is inserted in the socket.
Remove the USB memory device before carrying the unit or if not using the USB feature for a prolonged period.
Switch the unit off before removing your USB memory device.

Selecting USB mode
1. To select the USB mode slide the Function switch to the 'USB' position.
Note: Playback control in USB mode is similar to CD-MP3/WMA mode (see pages 18-23). MP3 and WMA fi les are played back in the order that they are written to the USB memory device by your computer except when random mode is used.
Note: The USB memory device should not be removed during playback as damage or corruption of fi les may occur.
Note: If the unit is in the USB stop mode position for more than 15 minutes it will automatically switch to the standby mode. The operation indicator and the LCD will go off in such a case. To use the unit again switch on the unit.

General
Do not allow this radio to be exposed to water, steam or sand. Do not leave your radio where excessive heat could cause damage such as in a parked car where the heat from the sun can build up even though the outside temperature may not seem too high. It is recommended that the FM band be used wherever possible as better results in terms of quality and freedom from interference will usually be obtained than on the MW band.
• No objects fi lled with liquids such as vases, shall be placed on the radio.
It is recommended to operate the product such that there is a minimum distance (10cm recommended) to adjacent objects in order to ensure good ventilation.
• The ventilation of the product should not be restricted by covering it or its ventilation openings with items such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains etc.
• No naked fl ame sources such as lighted candles should be placed on the product.
• It is recommended to avoid using or storing the product at extremes of temperature. Avoid leaving the unit in cars, on window sills in direct sunlight etc.

Mains supply
The Swallow 2 will operate from a supply of AC 230 volts, 50Hz
only.
DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If the plug fi tted is not suitable for the power points in your home or the cable is too short to reach a power point, then obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or adaptor. If in doubt consult your dealer.
If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off, remove the fuse and dispose of the plug immediately to avoid a possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.
If this product is not supplied with a mains plug, or one has to be fi tted, then follow the instructions given below:
IMPORTANT. DO NOT make any connection to the larger terminal which is marked with the letter E or by the safety earth symbol
or coloured
Green or Green-and-yellow.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following codes :-
BLUE - NEUTRAL BROWN - LIVE
Fuse
When replacing the fuse only a 3A ASTA approved to BS1362 type should be used and be sure to re-fi t the fuse cover.
IF IN DOUBT - CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Headphones
A 3.5mm Headphone socket located on the left side of the unit is provided for use with either heaphones or an earpiece. Inserting a plug into the socket automatically mutes the internal loudspeaker.
Please be aware that the sensitivity of headphones can vary widely. We therefore recommend setting the volume to a low level before connecting headphones to the radio.
IMPORTANT: Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones can cause hearing loss.
Underneath
The nameplate is located on the underside of your CD radio.
To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for long periods.
