Important safety instructions
For United States:
Cautions to the user
The changes or modications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
RF exposure statements
IMPORTANT NOTE:
To comply with the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the antenna (s)
used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at
least 20cm (8 inches) from all persons and must not be colocated or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. No change to the antenna or
the device is permitted. Any change to the antenna or the device could result in
the device exceeding the RF exposure requirements and void user’s authority to
operate the device.
Note:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guaranty that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
● Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
● Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
● Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
● Consult the dealer or an experienced radio / TV technician for help.

CAUTION:
These servicing instructions are for use by qualied service personnel only. To
reduce the risk of the electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than
that contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualied to so.
VERY IMPORTANT PLEASE READ
Sangean suggest that you keep your AC Adapter at least 12 inches away from
the radio while listening to the AM Band.
Your Sangean Radio is powered by an AC adapter which is a “switching” or
“switch-mode” type. The DOE (Department Of Energy) has a Federal mandate;
requiring all manufactures to use this type of power supply. This newer power
saving technology has the unfortunate side effect of causing interference to the
AM radio band.
Therefore, we recommend that customers keep at least a 1 foot distance
between the AC adapter and the radio. This interference will not affect the FM
Band. If you have any questions please contact customer service at (888)726-
4326, (562)941-9900 or service@sangean.com
If an AC adapter isn’t included in this model and if you wish to purchase an AC
Adapter separately, please refer to the specications for the AC Adapter stated
on the nal page of the manual, or please contact Sangean for the correct AC
Adapter and specications.
To learn more about the DOE mandate please visit http://www1.eere.energy.
gov/ buildings/appliance_standards/product.aspx/productid/23
Please note not all AC adapters are alike.
The AC adapter that is included with this radio is designed to be used
exclusively with this device. Do not use an AC adapter that differs from the
specications on the AC adapter that is included.
If an AC adapter is NOT included with your radio and in order not to damage
the unit and void your warranty, specications for the AC Adapter are stated
on the final page of the manual, or please contact Sangean for the correct
AC Adapter and specications. For customers in the US and Canada, please
call 562-941-9900 or 888-726-4326. For all other areas, please contact us via
contact@sangean.com.
Do not use an AC adapter that does not meet the correct specications.
Cautions

sand. Do not leave your radio where excessive heat
could cause damage such as in a parked car where the
heat from the sun can build up even though the outside
temperature may not seem too high.

button to switch to the tuning control mode and the “FM” or “AM” will ash
on the display. Rotate the Tuning control knob in an anti-clockwise direction
and then press and hold the Tuning control button. Your radio will scan in
a downwards direction and stop automatically when it nds a station of sufcient
strength.
5. After a few seconds the display will update. The display will show the frequency
