Features and Operation Explained — Front of Radio
The “TUNING” dial has two functions:
1) When the radio is “on”, it is used to tune in stations; and
2) When the radio is “off”, it can be used to adjust the time for time clocks and alarms.
See “CLOCK SET” (page 10) and “ALARM SET” (page 11).
Press and release the button to disable the “TUNING” dial q . The word Stop will appear
on the display, indicating the “TUNING” dial has been disabled. This is used to prevent fre-
quency changes with accidental bumps of the dial.

Press and release the button and the word Slow will appear on the display. When the
radio is in AM or SW band the “TUNING” dial will the tune in 1kHz steps. In FM band it will
tune in 10 kHz steps.
This feature is good for fine tuning AM reception. You may find the best reception of some AM
stations is one or two KHz off of the frequency you would expect. It is also good for tuning
away from a strong offending station that is next to the station you want on the dial.
“RESET” is used to clear up the radio if it should become scrambled and the buttons do not
respond, or if you wish to change “AM Tuning Steps”. To push the “RESET”, use the end of a
paperclip and push it into the hole briefly. Stations stored in Memory are saved after you
“reset” the radio.
If you change the “AM Tuning Step” switch from 10 kHz to 9 kHz tune spacing, you must press
the “RESET” to activate the change after you flip the switch. 9 Kilohertz spacing is used in
Europe and many other countries. See “BATTERY COMPARTMENT” L on page 20 for more
information on the “AM Tuning Step” switch.
