6 BASIC RADIO OPERATION
TURNING THE E10 ON AND OFF
The E10 can be turned on by the two methods
shown below. To turn it off, press the POWER/SLEEP
button (1).
1. BATTERY SAVER/TIMER METHOD:
Perform a quick, short press of the POWER/SLEEP
button (1). This turns the radio on with 90 in the
display and causes the radio to shut off automati-
cally after 90 minutes. The sleep timer symbol, ,
also appears in the display. To change the automatic
shut off time from 90 minutes to the number of
minutes-to-play of your preference, use the Up/Hour
or Down/Min. buttons (9, 10) immediately after turn-
ing on the radio. This allows selection of 1 – 480
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.
2. TIMER-DEFEAT METHOD:
This method defeats the automatic minute timer
and causes the radio to stay on until deliberately
turned off, until the batteries drain or indenitely
if used with an AC adaptor. Hold down the POWER
button for about 3 seconds, then release. Note that
‘On’ appears in the display and that he sleep timer
symbol does not appear when this method is used.
E10 OWNER’S MANUAL
E10 OWNER’S MANUAL
indication bars will advance from left to right
on the 0 – 5 scale in the upper left corner of
the display. The digits in the upper right corner
of the display will change to 00:00 and will
count up in minutes and hours until charging is
nished.
Once charging is nished, ‘CHARGE’ will stop ash-
ing and the charging indicator bars in the upper left
corner will stay on 5.
Charging time varies depending on the milliamp-
hour rating of the batteries. The charging circuit
automatically senses the milliamp-hour rating of
the batteries and will charge them for the correct
amount of time. Charging time can take from 6 hours
for 1100 mAh batteries to 13 hours for 2300 mAh
batteries. The charging circuit will sense when the
batteries are fully charged and automatically
go into trickle-charge mode, thus safeguarding the
batteries from being overcharged. Disconnecting the
adaptor/charger ACG-10 from the E10 or
pressing the CHARGER ON/OFF button will also stop
charging.
SIGNAL STRENGTH AND
BATTERY STRENGTH INDICATOR
When the radio is turned off, the upper left corner of
the display (6) shows battery strength on the 1–5
scale (36), with the triangle pointer (33) under the
battery symbol (34) on the far left side of the scale.
When the radio is turned on, the pointer is under the
antenna symbol (35) and the 1-5 scale shows rela-
tive signal strength.
VOLUME AND TONE CONTROLS
• The volume control (31), labeled VOLUME, is
located on the right side of the radio. To change
the volume, rotate the volume control knob.

is labeled TREBLE/BASS. Use the position produc-
ing the sound that you like best.
USING EARPHONES
Earphones/headphones with a 1/8 inch stereo plug
can be used. Plug them into the earphone socket
(25) on the left side of the radio.
