Please contact your dealer or Tivoli Audio if any of these items are missing
Guide to Features (Front panel)
- VOLUME KNOB: Rotate the volume knob to the right to increase the volume or to the left to decrease the volume. This knob also controls the volume of the headphone output.
- OFF/FM/AM/AUX KNOB: Turn the knob one click to the right to hear the FM band, two clicks to the right to hear the AM band, or three clicks to the right to select the auxiliary input.
- TUNING KNOB: Rotate the analog tuning dial to the right or to the left to adjust the FM (upper half of dial) or AM (lower half of dial) frequency range.
- TUNING INDICATOR: Brightest when best tuning has been achieved. Some listenable AM stations will not light the tuning indicator and should be tuned by ear for the clearest signal. This light may or may not remain lit when in the AUX position depending upon the position of the AM dial.
- POWER INDICATOR: Glows when the source knob is in any position other than Off.
Guide to Features (Rear panel):
- 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.
- 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 antenna switch to External.
- 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”.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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 used for radio listening.
- REC OUT: You can record from the Model One radio by connecting a cassette deck’s audio input (or another recording device) to this fixed-level stereo output. You can also use the Model One radio as a high-performance analog tuner by connecting it to the audio input of a preamplifier or integrated amplifier. The primary speaker will not be muted when using this output. This jack accepts a 1/8″ stereo male mini connector.
- 230V: Connect the included power cord to this input. When unplugging the power cord from the wall outlet, always grab it by the plug. We recommend using a power strip with surge protection. When disconnecting the power cord, always grasp it firmly at the connector. Never pull on the cord itself. Do not bundle the power cord together with the external FM antenna or any audio cables, as this can inject noise in the audio path.
Reception:
For AM, rotate the radio for best reception. An optional external AM wireless
or wired antenna may provide improved AM reception. Buildings made with
concrete, steel, or aluminum siding will hinder reception. Household
appliances, electric blankets, computers, CD players, and other electronic
devices can also adversely affect reception or inject noise. If you experience
this, move the Model One radio further from the offending device or plug it
into an electrical outlet not shared by another device. Metal surfaces may
also hinder AM reception.
Placement
Place the unit on a flat, stable surface. Do not block the bottom bass port.
The Model One radio is not video shielded and should be kept at least 5″ away
from a computer monitor or television. The Model One radio can be positioned
vertically as well as horizontally. Placement in a bookcase, cabinet, or close
to walls or corners may inflate the bass.
Cleaning:
Never use any harsh cleansers or solvents on your radio. Avoid spray-on waxes.
Unplug the Model One radio prior to cleaning. The face may be cleaned with a
slightly damp, soft cloth. Painting
or staining the wood cabinet will void your warranty. The variations in color
and grain are characteristics of real wood and give the cabinet its natural
beauty. As a result, the cabinet’s finish may not match other Tivoli Audio
products. Also note some finishes, particularly walnut, may darken over time
to light exposure. This is normal for a natural wood product.
NOTE: If you wish to attach other speakers to the Model One radio, use only
the self amplified variety, such as those typically used with computers.
