IMPORTANT NOTES FOR USERS IN THE U.K. _
Mains plug
This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 13 Amp plug To change a fuse
in this type of plug proceed as follows:
• Remove fuse cover and fuse,
• Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp, A,S.T.A, or BSI approved type.
• Refit the fuse cover
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an
appropriate plug fitted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5 Amp. If a plug
without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5 Amp
Note: The severed plug must be disposed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a
13 Amp socket elsewhere
Howto connect a plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured with the following code blue = neutral (N), brown = live (U
As these colours may not correspond with the colour markings identifying the terminals in your plug,
proceed as follows:
• Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or coloured black.
• Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked L or coloured red
• Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in the plug, marked E {or or coloured green (or
green and yellow).
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead
- not simply over the two wires.

Power supply
Radio reception
MAINS SUPPLY _
• Check if the mains voltage as shown on the
type platefef the base of the set) corresponds
to your local mains supply. If it does not,
consult your dealer or service organisation.
If the set is equipped with a VOLTAGE
SELECTOR® (at the rear of the set), set this
selector to the local mains voltage.
• Connect the mains lead to the AC MAINS
socket ® (at the rear of the set) and the wall
socket.
The mains supply is now switched on.
• To disconnect the set from the mains
completely, withdraw the mains plug from the
wall socket.
BATTERIES __
• Open the battery compartment and insert 4
batteries type R20, UM1 or D-cells.
• Remove the batteries:
- when they are exhausted:
- if they are not going to be used for a long
period of time;
- when the battery indicator pj starts
flashing.
Note:
When the set is connected to the mains, the
battery supply is switched off automatically.
Warning for weak batteries
When the batteries run low, the radio will
show the time display. Pressing POWER ® or
SLEEP @ will turn on the radio for a short
period of time before it automatically turns off
again. The period will get shorter as the
batteries run lower.
Continued operation with low batteries causes
malfunctioning and losing programmed time
settings and preset radio stations. In this case,
remove the batteries, press the RESET button
© in the battery compartment briefly and
insert fresh batteries.
Readjust the timer setting and the preset radio
stations.
POWER FAILURE __
- If the power supply is interrupted, the battery
indicator p) starts flashing.
- The programmed time settings and preset radio
stations will be kept in the memory for 2 min.
- If the AC power is interrupted, the batteries (if
present) will take over the supply. In this case
all settings will be kept in the memory.
9/10 kHz SELECTOR _
The minimum 'frequency distance' (span division)
between adjacent radio stations (measured in
kHz) is standardized all over the world.
However, North and South America use another
standard than the rest of the world.
This means that the radio should use a tuning
step according to the standard concerned in order
to obtain accurate radio tuning.
The 9/10 kHz switch @ in the battery
compartment allows accurate tuning for both
standards and has a double function.
Position 10 kHz for the Americas
- AM tuning step 10 kHz;
- FM tuning step 100 kHz;
Position 9 kHz for the the rest of the world
- AM tuning step 9 kHz;
- FM tuning step 50 kHz;
AERIALS ___.
- For FM reception extend the telescopic aerial
fully.
To improve the reception you can incline and
rotate the aerial. If the FM signal received is too
strong (in the direct vicinity of the transmitter)
you can retract the aerial.
- For the medium wave (AM/MW), and long
wave (LW) the set has a built-in aerial, so the
telescopic aerial is not needed. You can direct
the aerial by turning the set itself.
RADIO RECEPTION _
• Press POWER ® to switch the radio on.
• Adjust the sound with VOLUME © and TONE
• You can connect headphones to the PHONE
socket ©.
The loudspeaker will then be switched off.
• Set the wave range with the BAND switch @
(LWnot on all versions).
- The selected wave range will appear on the
display.
• Tune to a radio station either manually,
automatically or with the PRESET buttons ©
(see TUNING' and ’PRESET RADIO
STATIONS').
• Press POWER © once again to switch the
radio off. The display will now indicate the
current time.
