His Master's Voice JB-1G User manual

HOW TO OPERATE
There are two controls with roller type
knurled knobs. These are Tuning, and
combined ON/OFF Switch and Volume.
To switch on, turn the "VOL. OFF" knob
upwards until a click
is heard; further
rotation increases
the volume. To switch
OFF, reverse the procedure.
To tune a radio station,
turn the Tuning
knob until the desired
station is indicated
by
the pointer on the appropriate scale.
Then
tune until the station is heard clearly.
The receiver
is provided with a built-in
ferrite rod aerial. This type
of aerial has
directional properties,
and the reception of
weak transmissions
can often be improved
by rotating
the instrument for optimum
results.
The directional properties of this type of
aerial may also be employed
to eliminate
or reduce electrical interference. To do
this,
the instrument should be rotated to a
position where
the interference is reduced
to a minimum
and then, leaving it in this
position,
the desired station should be
tuned-in.
EARPIECE
A socket is provided on the left -hand
side of
the receiver into which the plug of
the earpiece may be inserted, for personal
listening.
The speaker is disconnected
when the earpiece
is in use.
BATTERY
With this receiver, the battery consump-
tion
is increased with an increase in volume
level. In order to obtain long battery life,
only sufficient volume should be used to
give
pleasant listening.

A worn-out battery should not be left in
the receiver for any length of time, as it
may leak
and cause serious damage.
To remove the battery, unscrew the
captive screw
at the back, until it is dis-
engaged. The back of the cabinet may be
prised off with a coin,
in the slot provided
at the bottom. The old battery should be
replaced with a new one, Eveready Type
2362.
After replacing receiver in leather
case, check
that receiver has not been
accidentally switched
"On".
WARNING
To avoid discharging the battery, with its
consequent inconvenience, be sure
to turn
the "VOL. OFF" switch to the "OFF" posi-
tion immediately after use. The red arc on
the control
is visible only when the battery
is switched on and serves as a warning
indicator.
CARRYING CASE
The surface of the carrying case may
be cleaned, if this becomes necessary, by
sponging with warm water,
to which a little
soap has been added. It should
then be
polished with a soft, dry cloth.
MAINTENANCE
Should you require any further assist-
ance or advise, or should your receiver
need maintenance or adjustment, com-
municate with the supplier from whom you
purchased
the receiver. The facilities of
our Service Dept. are at the disposal of
your retailer should
any assistance be
necessary.
"H.MV" Service Division, located in the
Capital City of the State in which you
reside, may be
able to render assistance
under warranty if your regular retailer
is
unable to do so.
