Listening to The Radio

Digital Radio Frequency Display
This clock radio features a digital radio frequency display instead of a dial scale to make tuning easier, especially in a dark

room. The jumbo LED time display automatically changes to a radio frequency display as soon as you begin turning the

TUNING control. And the display automatically changes back to the correct time within 5 seconds after you release the

TUNING control.
1. Set the

BAND AM/FM selector switch to the desired band, AM or FM.

2. Set the

VOLUME control to a low setting.

3. Press the

RADIO ON/OFF button to turn the radio ‘On’. The display changes from time to an

AM or FM Frequency.

4. Rotate the

TUNING control to select the desired radio frequency.

Important: It is not necessary to set the display to the exact frequency of your desired station. Just use the

display as a guide and rotate the TUNING control until you find the strongest and the best reception even if the

frequency number shown on the display is slightly higher or lower than the actual station frequency.
Within 5 seconds after you release the

TUNING control the display automatically returns to the correct time. If you wish to

check the station frequency again, press the

ALARM MODE (Display) button. The display will change from time to radio

frequency for 5 seconds and then return to time display.
5. Adjust the

VOLUME control to the desired setting.

6. When you are finished listening press the

RADIO ON/OFF button to turn the radio ‘Off’.

Antenna Information
AM – The AM bar antenna is inside the cabinet. If AM reception is weak, change the position of the cabinet until the internal

antenna picks up the strongest signal.

FM – Make sure the external FM antenna wire on the back cabinet is fully unwound and extended to its full length.

Checking The Wake-Up Times And Alarm Mode
Whenever you want to check the wake-up time or alarm mode settings, simply press either the ALARM 1 or ALARM 2 Setting

Buttons. The display will change from correct time to “wake-up time” and the DAY indicators will show you the alarm mode

that is currently selected.
Release the

ALARM 1 or ALARM 2 setting buttons to return to the correct time.
