EXTERNAL AC ADAPTOR ( NOT INCLUDED )
This unit can be powered by an AC outlet.
Be careful to use an AC adapter which is correctly matched to your
unit. Your cassette radio requires a DC input of 3V (300 mA or more )
with a XXXXX polarity. This AC Adapter can be purchased
separately in many radio stores.

button for more than 0.5 seconds activates the automatic tuning
mode. The automatic tuner will scan up or down and lock onto the

NOTE: When you are in the fringe area of a particular FM station,
the stereo program from that station may be noisy. To
reduce the noise interference, stretch the headphone cord

tuning a AM station, rotate the set slowly for best
reception.
MEMORY BACKUP OF STORED STATIONS
Once the batteries are weak, switch the Function switch to TAPE
position and press the Stop button to turn off power. Then you have
30 seconds to change the new batteries.
NOTE: When you replace batteries or switch from batteries to AC
adapter, make sure to turn the power off (Function Switch on TAPE
position). Otherwise the set may lose the preset memory.
CAUTION:
If the batteries have been removed for more than 30 seconds, you
may need to re-program all the radio stations.
RESET: (If some erratic information appears on the LCD display)
Take out the batteries and switch to radio function for quick
discharge and replace the batteries after 1 minute. You will
have to re-program the memory.

station.
BASS BOOST SWITCH
Sliding this switch to ON gives you more bass ( low frequency )
sounds in radio or tape.
FM STEREO SWITCH
Sliding the switch to FM STEREO ON (stereo) will give you stereo
sound and stereo indicator will show in the display window.
However, some FM Stereo stations are noisy, so you may want to
switch to OFF (mono) for clearer sound in some locations.
NOTE: To avoid damaging the tape head, do not open the cassette
door in the play mode. Press Stop first.
ANTENNA
The AM Band has a built-in ferrite rod antenna. The FM Antenna is
built-in to headphone wire so be sure to extend the headphone wire
for best reception. You may find you can improve AM reception by
rotating the set or bringing it closer to a window.

CASSETTE TAPE OPERATION TIPS
1. To obtain good operation, the head should be cleaned after
every 30 hours of use. It is also recommended that the tape be
kept away from excessive heat or cold.
2. If there is slack in the tape, remove it before inserting the tape.
To do so, insert a pencil into the hub and rotate clockwise as
shown.
3. Keep the tape head clean since a dirty tape head can cause
distorted sound or improper tape speed. Press the play button
and use a small cotton swab with tape head cleaner or alcohol
to clean the tape head, capstan and pinch roller as shown on
page 7.
NOTE: If the Play button pops up and you cannot get tape to play,
flip the tape around to the other side and insert into door
again (the tape may be at the end).
Remember the full spool of the tape must be inserted as
shown on page 4 on the right side.
