1. 12VDC/800mA: This input is for use with an optional 1A fused, 12VDC adapter, for operation
in a boat or camper. The connector must be 5.5mm/2.1mm center positive.
2. FM ANTENNA SWITCH: Switch between internal and external FM antennas. This switch has
no affect on AM reception. In some cases, FM reception may be improved by setting this an-
tenna switch to External.
3. EXTERNAL FM CONNECTION: When listening to FM, depending on your country, slide the
included wire antenna over this F connector, or adjust this telescoping antenna and position it for
best reception. In strong FM signal locations, reducing the antenna’s length may provide better
reception. When the unit is not in use or when listening to AM, keep the antenna retracted
to protect it. This antenna has no affect on AM reception. For more, see the section marked
“Reception”.
4. EXTERNAL AM CONNECTION: In some cases, AM reception may be improved by connecting
an external AM antenna (not included) to this jack, which accepts a 1/8" male stereo mini
connector. For more, see the section marked Reception.
5. HEADPHONE OUT: Connect a headset (not included) to this variable stereo output for private
listening. The headset will mute the primary speaker. The headset’s volume is adjusted using
the volume knob. This stereo output accepts a 1/8" stereo male mini connector. Avoid using
headphones at high volume levels to prevent possible hearing damage.
6. AUX IN: To hear audio from another device, such as a CD player, MP3 player, or computer,
connect said device’s audio output to this stereo input and switch the front source knob to
Aux. Switching to the Aux position does not turn on the connected device. This stereo input
accepts a 1/8" stereo male mini connector. The left and right stereo signal is summed to mono.
Note you may need to adjust the volume level differently for an auxiliary device than the level
