Caractéristiques
• Radio compacte
• Indicateur TUNE pour simplifier la
syntonisation
Installation des piles
(voirfig. A)
1Ouvrez le couvercle du compartiment à
piles.
2Introduisez deux piles (AA) (non
fournies) en en respectant la polarité.
3Refermez le couvercle.
Autonomie des piles

Approx. 35 heures
Avec des piles Sony LR6 (AA) :
Approx. 95 heures
Remplacement des piles
Lorsque le son faiblit ou comporte des
distorsions, remplacez les piles.
Remarques sur les piles
• Ne pas recharger une pile sèche.
• Ne pas porter de pile sèche avec des pièces de
monnaie ou d’autres objets métalliques. Le
contact des bornes positive et négative avec
un objet métallique peut générer de la chaleur.
• Pour éviter tout dommage dû à une fuite de
l’électrolyte des piles et à la corrosion, enlevez
les piles si vous prévoyez de ne pas utiliser
l’appareil pendant longtemps.
Fonctionnement de
la Radio
1Tournez POWER/VOL pour mettre la
radio sous tension et régler le volume.
2Sélectionnez une bande de fréquence.
3Syntonisez une station avec TUNING.
TUNE s’allume dès qu’une station est
syntonisée.
Pour mettre la radio hors tension
Tournez la commande POWER/VOL
complètement vers le bas jusqu’à ce que vous
entendiez un déclic.
Pour écouter avec des écouteurs
Raccordez des écouteurs à la prise v(écouteurs).
Le haut-parleur est désactivé lorsque vous
branchez des écouteurs.
Pour améliorer la qualité de
réception(voirfig.B)
FM : Déployez l’antenne télescopique et orientez-
la de façon à obtenir la meilleure qualité de
réception.
OM/GO : Faites pivoter l’appareil
horizontalement pour une réception optimale.
Une antenne tige en ferrite est intégrée dans
l’appareil.
Remarque
Ne faites pas pivoter l'antenne télescopique.
Utilisation du support (voir fig. C)
• Pour utiliser le support pour soutenir
l’appareil, dépliez-le à moitié.
• Le support peut également être utilisé comme
une poignée pour transporter l’appareil. Pour
cela, dépliez complètement le support.
Précautions
• Faites uniquement fonctionner l’appareil sur
une tension de 3 V CC avec deux piles R6 (AA).
• Ne laissez pas l’appareil à proximité de sources
de chaleur ou à un endroit soumis au
rayonnement direct du soleil, à du sable, de la
poussière en excès ou à des chocs mécaniques.
• Si un liquide ou un solide venait à pénétrer à
l’intérieur du boîtier, retirez les piles puis faites
contrôler l’appareil par le personnel qualifié
avant de continuer à l’utiliser.
• Etant donné que le haut-parleur intègre un
puissant aimant, gardez les cartes de crédit,
etc., utilisant un code magnétique à l’écart de
l’appareil.
• Si le boîtier est souillé, nettoyez-le à l’aide d’un
chiffon doux légèrement imprégné d’une
solution détergente neutre. N’utilisez en aucun
cas de nettoyants abrasifs ou de solvants
chimiques, car vous risquez sinon de ternir le
fini du boîtier.
• La réception radio peut s’avérer difficile dans
les véhicules et les bâtiments. Dans ce cas,
placez-vous à côté d’une fenêtre.
Si vous avez des questions ou des problèmes
concernant votre appareil, consultez votre
revendeur Sony.
