VERY IMPORTANT PLEASE READ
Sangean suggests that you keep your AC Adapter at least 12 inches away from
the radio while listening to the AM Band.
Your Sangean Radio is powered by an AC adapter which is a “switching” or
“switch-mode” type. The DOE (Department Of Energy) has a Federal mandate;
requiring all manufacturers to use this type of power supply. This newer
power-saving technology has the unfortunate side effect of causing
interference to the AM radio band.
Therefore, we recommend that customers keep at least a 1-foot distance between
the AC adapter and the radio. This interference will not affect the FM Band.
If you have any questions please contact customer service at (888)726-4326,
(562)941-9900 or [email protected]
If an AC adapter isn’t included in this model and if you wish to purchase an
AC
Adapter separately, please refer to the specifications for the AC Adapter
stated on the final page of the manual, or please contact Sangean for the
correct AC Adapter and specifications.
To learn more about the DOE mandate please visit
http://www1.eere.energy.gov/buildings/appliance_standards/product.aspx/productid/23
Please note not all AC adapters are alike.
The AC adapter that is included with this radio is designed to be used
exclusively with this device. Do not use an AC adapter that differs from the
specifications on the AC adapter that is included.
If an AC adapter is NOT included with your radio and in order not to damage
the unit and void your warranty, specifications for the AC Adapter are stated
on the final page of the manual, or please contact Sangean for the correct AC
Adapter and specifications. For customers in the US and Canada, please call
562-941-9900 or
