OPERATING LOCK
The operating lock prevents unintentional altering of any of the
functions once set or accidently turning off the radio. Once set
the STANDBY/SLEEP button and all tuning operations become
unalterable and can not be reactivated until the lock switch is turned
off. It is a good policy to turn on the lock switch when transporting
the radio as it will prevent the radio from being turned on accidently
while in a bag or suitcase. To turn the lock switch, press the lock
switch button. When the lock switch is the ON position a lock
symbol will appear in the display. To unlock radio, press lock switch
button again. This will unlock the radio and remove the lock symbol
from the display.
AERIALS
The ATS-909X comes equipped with a integrated ferrite antenna
built into the radio that should provide more than adequate
reception for the MW and LW bands. For FM reception, it is advised
that the telescopic antenna be extended and adjusted in length and
direction for maximum results. Included with the ATS-909X is the
Sangean ANT-60 Portable SW Antenna. The antenna is plugged
into jack labeled AM EXT ANT. When fully extended this antenna
should improve SW reception. For maximum performance this
antenna should be placed as high as possible above the ground
and in an unobstructed area if possible.
Aux-in
A 3.5mm stereo Auxiliary Input socket is provided on the left hand
side of your radio to permit an audio signal to be fed into the unit
from an external audio device such as iPod, MP3 or CD player.
Just connect the external audio and turn on the radio. Press the
Aux in switch then you can play the external audio device with your
ATS-909X now. Adjust the volume control on the radio as needed.
MW/AM STEP
In Europe and most other parts of the world set the switch to the
9kHz position. For the America set the switch to the 0kHz position.
