Battery operation
1. Remove the Battery cover on the rear of your CD radio cassette
by pushing the catches in the direction shown.
2. Insert eight LR14 (C size) batteries into the compartment. Take care
to ensure all batteries are inserted with the correct polarity as
shown inside the battery compartment. Replace the battery cover.
3. Reduced power, distortion, and a ‘stuttering’ sound are all signs that
the batteries may need replacing.
We would recommend for economy that your CD9949 is used
on the mains whenever possible with battery operation for
occasional or stand-by use only.
Mains operation
1. Place your CD radio cassette on a flat surface.
2. Plug the mains lead into the Socket located on the rear of your CD
radio cassette. Ensure that the plug is pushed fully into the socket.
3. Plug the other end into a wall socket and switch on.
4. Do not allow this unit to be exposed to moisture (e.g. dripping or
splashing). 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.
Note: The unit remains connected to the mains even when it
is switched off. The unit is only isolated from the mains if the
mains plug is removed from the wall socket.

2. Slide Waveband switch to select the required wave band . For the
FM waveband fully extend the Telescopic aerial angle and rotate,
if necessary, to obtain best reception.
3. Press and hold down either the Tuning up or Tuning down buttons
for more than 0.5 sec to commence scan tuning. An audible tone will
be heard indicating that the radio is tuning. The tone will increase in
pitch for tuning up and decrease in pitch for tuning down.
4. Your radio will scan the selected waveband, sound a beep tone and
stop automatically when it finds a station of sufficient strength.
5. To recommence scan tuning, press and hold down either the
Tuning up or Tuning down buttons for more than 0.5 sec.
6. When the waveband end is reached the radio will beep and continue
tuning from the opposite waveband end.
7. Adjust the Volume and Tone controls to the desired settings.
8. To switch off your radio slide the Function switch to the Off/Tape
position.
Note: On FM if a station being received is weak some hiss
may be audible. To reduce the hiss slide the FM Stereo/Mono
switch (on rear) to the mono position. The stereo indicator
will be removed from the display.
