RADIO OPERATION 

1.  Slide the FUNCTION SWITCH to the “RADIO” position.  
2.  Slide the BAND SWITCH to your desired band (AM, FM or FM ST.).  
3.  Turn the TUNING KNOB to your desired radio station. The radio 

frequency appears in the LCD DISPLAY.  

4.  Adjust the sound level by pressing the VOLUME buttons (Up/Down).  
5.  To turn off the radio, press the POWER BUTTON once. The LCD DISPLAY 

will go “off” and the STANDBY LED INDICATOR will light. 

 
FM STEREO RECEPTION 

With the BAND SWITCH in the “FM ST” 
position, the FM Stereo Indicator “

” will 

light up when listening to a strong station that 
is broadcasting in “Stereo”.  
When the FM stereo reception is weak, slide the BAND SWITCH to FM 

position. The reception may be improved, but the sound is monaural (MONO).

 

 

TIPS FOR BEST RECEPTION 

AM – The AM antenna is located inside the cabinet of the main unit. If AM 

reception is weak, change the position of cabinet until the internal 

antenna picks up the strongest signal, 

FM – During FM reception, always keep the FM Wire Antenna fully extended.  

If FM reception is weak try repositioning the FM Wire Antenna until 
you find the strongest signal. 

 
 

BASS BOOST  

To enhance the low frequency sound, press the BASS BOOST BUTTON “ON” 
(a “click” will be heard). To release the BASS BOOST, press this button once 
again

 

(two “clicks” will be heard).

 

 
 

AUXILIARY (AUX) OPERATION 

You can play other music sources (MP3 player or other digital audio player) 

through the speakers of this system by connecting the AUX IN Jack to your 

external player’s audio out jack or headphone jack. 

1. Plug one end of an audio cable (not included) into the AUX IN Jack and the 

other end of the cable to the headphone jack of your digital audio player. 

2. Set the FUNCTION SWITCH to the “AUX” position. 

3. Press the POWER BUTTON to turn on the system
