Cautions to the user

The changes or modications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

RF exposure statements

IMPORTANT NOTE:

To comply with the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the
antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation
distance of at least 20cm (8 inches) from all persons and must not be co­located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
No change to the antenna or the device is permitted. Any change to the
antenna or the device could result in the device exceeding the RF exposure
requirements and void user’s authority to operate the device.

Note:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not

installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause

harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guaranty that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on,

the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more
of the following measures:

● Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

● Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

● Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.

● Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

CAUTION:

These servicing instructions are for use by qualied service
personnel only. To reduce the risk of the electric shock, do not perform
any servicing other than that contained in the operating instructions unless
you are qualied to so.

VERY IMPORTANT PLEASE READ

Sangean suggest that you keep your AC Adapter at least 12 inches away

from the radio while listening to the AM Band.

Your Sangean Radio is powered by an AC adapter which is a “switching”
or “switch-mode” type. The DOE (Department Of Energy) has a Federal
mandate; requiring all manufactures to use this type of power supply.
This newer power saving technology has the unfortunate side effect of

causing interference to the AM radio band.

Therefore, we recommend that customers keep at least a 1 foot distance
between the AC adapter and the radio. This interference will not affect
the FM Band. If you have any questions please contact customer service
at [phone], [phone] or [e-mail]
If an AC adapter isn’t included in this model and if you wish to purchase
an AC Adapter separately, please refer to the specifications for the
AC Adapter stated on the final page of the manual, or please contact
Sangean for the correct AC Adapter and specications.
To learn more about the DOE mandate please visit http://www1.eere.
energy. gov/buildings/appliance_standards/product.aspx/productid/23

Please note not all AC adapters are alike.
The AC adapter that is included with this radio is designed to be used
exclusively with this device. Do not use an AC adapter that differs from
the specications on the AC adapter that is included.
If an AC adapter is NOT included with your radio and in order not to
damage the unit and void your warranty, specications for the AC Adapter
are stated on the nal page of the manual, or please contact Sangean for
the correct AC Adapter and specications. For customers in the US and
Canada, please call 888-726-4326. For all other areas, please contact us
via [e-mail].
Do not use an AC adapter that does not meet the correct specications.
