Remove the battery compartment cover by pushing it in the direction
of the arrow. Install two ‘AA’ batteries according to the polarity sym-
bols (+ and -) marked next to the compartment. For easy removal,
place the batteries on top of the lift-out ribbon.
Turn the radio on with the POWER/SLEEP button, on the right side of
the radio. A quick, short press engages the sleep timer with 60 min-
utes of playtime and the sleep timer symbol appears in the upper
right corner of the display. To select a different time, press the
POWER/SLEEP button immediately after the radio turns on, selecting
60, 45, 30, 15, 10, 05, 120, 90 or 75 minutes.
To defeat the sleep timer, turn on the radio by pressing the
POWER/SLEEP for about two seconds. To turn it off, press the
POWER/SLEEP button.
It’s normal for the display to become lit for about 5 seconds, every
time that a button is pressed, except with the RADIO/BUZZER button,
on the right side of the radio.
Use the volume knob, on the left side, to adjust the volume.

the frequency of the station appears in the display.
