SETTING UP AM AND FM OUTSIDE OF NORTH AMERICA
You can skip this section if you are in North America and just purchased
the E100. It is already set-up in the factory for use in North America.
If you travel to other world regions, make the changes below as necessary.
Outside of North America, AM stations (MW in the E100’s display) are
spaced in 9 KHz tuning steps.The FM frequency range may be different
from that used in NorthAmerica,e.g. like that used in Japan, 76-108MHz.
To make these changes please see the instructions titled SYSTEM SET
CODE TABLE, on pages 21-22.
TUNING IN STATIONS
Four Ways to Tune in Stations
Below, four ways to tune stations are described. They are Regular
Tuning, Auto-scan Tuning, Direct Frequency Entry and Fine Tuning.
1. REGULAR TUNING (also called manual tuning)
Quick, short presses of the Up/Hour-Down/Min. buttons (5,6)
enables tuning up or down frequency.
2. AUTO-SCAN TUNING
Pressing the Up/Hour or Down/Min. buttons (5,6) for just over 1
second enables automatic scan-tuning. The radio will then auto-
matically stop on the next station encountered. Use the Up/Hour
button to auto-scan upward in frequency and the Down/Min. button
to auto-scan downward in frequency.
2. Timer-Defeat Method
This method defeats the automatic 120 minute timer and causes
the radio to stay on until deliberately turned off, until the batteries
drain or indefinitely if used with an AC adaptor. Hold down the
POWER button for about 3 seconds, then release. Note that ‘120’
and the sleep timer symbol do not appear when this method is
used.
VOLUME AND TONE CONTROLS
• The volume control (23), labeled VOLUME, is located on the right
side of the radio. To change the volume, rotate the volume control
knob.
• The tone control (22), on the right side of the radio is labeled
LOW/HIGH. Use the position that you like best.
SELECTING FM, AM OR SHORTWAVE
After turning on the E100, pressing the button labeled ‘FM/MW/SW
Band’ (11), allows selection of FM, AM and SW. Note that when the
AM band is selected, the display shows MW, not AM. The frequency
digits (36) appear in the lower portion of the display..The local stations
of the area that you are currently in will be heard on AM and FM.
Shortwave stations from around the world will be heard on SW.
