When AC power is restored, normal operation resumes. If no batteries, the display blinks to indicate power interruption, and you must reset the time.

How do I set the time zone?

Locate the time zone selector switch on the bottom of the unit. Slide it to Pacific, Mountain, Central, or Eastern to match your region. Do this before plugging in for automatic time set.

How do I enable or disable Daylight Saving Time?

Press and hold the DAYLIGHT SAVING button on the side of the unit. The DST icon will appear on the display when activated. Press and hold again to deactivate.

Why is my FM reception poor?

The power cord acts as the FM antenna. Make sure it is fully stretched out and not coiled or bunched. Try repositioning the cord for better reception. The built-in AFC helps lock onto FM stations.

Operating the Radio

EN

Built-In AFC

The Built-In Automatic Frequency Control (AFC) works only on FM. It helps to reduce drift on FM reception and to keep the radio locked in on the FM station to which it is tuned.

Antennas

AM Antenna - A built-in ferrite rod antenna eliminates the need for an outside antenna for AM reception. Rotating the unit slightly may improve reception of distant AM stations.

FM Antenna - The power cord acts as your FM antenna. The power cord picks up moderate to strong stations and eliminates the need for an external antenna in most strong signal areas. Be sure the power cord is stretched out to its full length. Do not coil or bunch the cord together. Changing position of the power cord may improve reception.
