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

9kHz position. For the America set the switch to the 0kHz position.
