FM stereo operation
Set the function switch (16) to the 'Radio' position. Set the band select switch
(18) to the 'FM stereo' position. Adjust the volume control (14) until a hissing
sound is heard. The telescopic aerial (12) which is only operational on FM,
should be fully extended. Carefully tune to the desired station using the
tuning control (17). If the station being received is in 'Stereo' the stereo
indicator (1) will illuminate. Angle and rotate the telescopic aerial to a position
giving the best reception. A knuckle joint at the base of the aerial allows this
movement and an angle of 45 degrees will usually be satisfactory. If the FM
signal becomes weak or is accompanied by a high level of background hiss,
you may select 'MONO' mode by setting the band switch (18) to the "FM"
position.
The FM band is marked in Megahertz (MHz). To switch off the radio, set the
function switch (16) to the 'Tape/Radio Off' position.
Medium and long wave operation
Set the function switch (16) to the 'Radio' position. Select 'MW' or 'LW' using
the band select switch (18). Adjust the volume control (14) until a hissing
sound is heard. Carefully tune to the desired station using the tuning control
(17). The unit should be rotated for optimum reception. The MW and LW
bands are marked in kilohertz (kHz). To switch off the radio, set the function
switch (16) to the 'Tape/Radio Off' position.
Listening to cassette tapes
Set the function switch (16) to the 'Tape/Radio off' position. Press the stop/
eject button (4) to open the cassette compartment (10). Insert a pre-recorded
cassette with the tape surface uppermost and the side with the desired
recording facing towards you. Close the cassette compartment. Depress the
play button (7) and adjust the volume control (17) to suit your personal taste.
Use the fast forward (5) or rewind buttons (6) to locate a specific part of the
tape. If you wish to temporarily stop the playback depress the pause button
(3). When you are ready to resume playback press the pause button a
second time.
Recording from the Radio
Set the Function switch (16) to the 'Radio' position. Tune in to the desired
station. Adjust the volume control (17) to suit your requirements. Insert a
blank cassette with the tape surface uppermost. Depress the record button
(8) to commence recording. The recording level is set automatically and is
not affected by the setting of the volume control. When recording from the
MW or LW bands a whistle may occur. To remove the whistle slide the beat
cut switch (15) on the rear of the SRC955 to the position giving best
reception..
Recording from the Internal Microphone
Set the function switch (16) to the 'Tape/Radio off' position. Insert a blank
cassette with the tape surface uppermost. Press the record button (8) to
commence recording.
Note : To reduce background noise it is important to speak as close as
possible to the internal microphone (9).
Caution
If the record button will not depress, do not force it. It is probably because the
cassette tabs have been broken to prevent accidental erasure of an existing
recording. (see preventing accidental erasure)
