5 BASIC RADIO OPERATION
IMPORTANT INITIAL SET-UP
1. Assure that the radio is unlocked, using the LOCK switch (24) on
right side of the radio by pushing it down, to the OFF position. This
switch can be used to lock the radio when it is not in use or when
traveling. (Note that this does not deactivate the alarm feature).
2. Assure that the antenna gain switch (17), on the left side of the
radio is in the high-gain, H, position.
TURNING THE E100 ON AND OFF
The E100 can be turned on by the two methods shown below. To turn
it off, press the POWER/SLEEP button (3).
1. Battery Saver/Timer Method
Perform a quick, short press of the POWER/SLEEP button (3). This
turns the radio on with 120 in the display and causes the radio to
shut off automatically after 120 minutes. The sleep timer symbol,
(35), also appears in the display. To change the automatic shut
off time from 120 minutes to a time of your preference, use the
Up/Hour or Down/Min. buttons (5,6) immediately after turning on
the radio. This allows selection of 1 – 120 minutes of playtime
before automatic shut-off occurs. The number of minutes that you
last set are also used the next time the radio is turned on.
