OPERATING LOCK

The operating lock prevents unintentional altering of any of the

functions once set or accidently turning off the radio. Once set

the STANDBY/SLEEP button and all tuning operations become

unalterable and can not be reactivated until the lock switch is

turned off. It is a good policy to turn on the lock switch when

transporting the radio as it will prevent the radio from being turned

on accidently while in a bag or suitcase. To turn the lock switch,

press the lock switch button. When the lock switch is the ON

position a lock symbol will appear in the display. To unlock radio,

press lock switch button again. This will unlock the radio and

remove the lock symbol from the display.

AERIALS

The ATS-909X comes equipped with a integrated ferrite antenna

built into the radio that should provide more than adequate

reception for the MW and LW bands. For FM reception, it is

advised that the telescopic antenna be extended and adjusted in

length and direction for maximum results. Included with the

ATS-909X is the Sangean ANT-60 Portable SW Antenna.

The antenna is plugged into jack labeled AM EXT ANT. When fully

extended this antenna should improve SW reception. For maximum

performance this antenna should be placed as high as possible

above the ground and in an unobstructed area if possible.

Aux-in

A 3.5mm stereo Auxiliary Input socket is provided on the left hand

side of your radio to permit an audio signal to be fed into the unit

from an external audio device such as iPod, MP3 or CD player.

Just connect the external audio and turn on the radio. Press the

Aux in switch then you can play the external audio device with your

ATS-909X now. Adjust the volume control on the radio as needed.

MW /AM STEP

In Europe and most other parts of the world set the switch to the

9 kHz position. For the America set the switch to the 10 kHz position.
