BOSTON ACOUSTICS RECEPTER RADIO HD HD
TM
Thank you for purchasing the Boston Acoustics RecepterTM Radio. We have designed this product to provide rich, lifelike musical sound and simple operation in a compact, easy-to-place format. The Boston Acoustics RecepterTM Radio's surprising performance is made possible by Boston Acoustics' many years of experience in designing and manufacturing high-performance audio equipment. The key to the Radio's sound is its Boston-designed wide-range driver. Optimized specifically for the Radio, it is combined with an actively-equalized amplifier that that uses proprietary Boston BassTrac® circuitry for full, satisfying bass even at low volume. The result is a unit that delivers smooth, natural response and room-filling sound that belies its small size. This outstanding audio performance is coupled with a highly sensitive AM/FM tuner with a 20 preset-station memory for clear, distortion-free reception. A large, easy-to-read LCD display clearly presents the station, clock, and alarm/sleep status, while a built-in sleep function lets the Radio play for up to 60 minutes before turning off automatically. The Radio is fast and easy to use and set, since times and stations can be rapidly selected by spinning a knob rather than repeatedly pressing buttons. And once you have stored your favorite stations in memory, the tuning knob can be set to tune in only those stations.
T store a preset station: o - Use AM>FM> Presets to choose AM or FM tuning. 3.
When the Radio is playing normally (no alarm is sounding), hold the
Snooze / sleep
button down for 1 second.
The word Sleep is shown in the display, and the time 60:00 is shown temporarily. Each additional press of the Snooze/sleep button will reduce the remaining sleep time in 10-minute increments, to the nearest 10 minutes. Example: If there are 59:48 minutes remaining in sleep, pressing the button once will reduce the sleep time to 50 minutes, twice will reduce it to 40 minutes, etc.
