F1-7 DUAL FUNCTION BUTTON DIAGRAM

The F1-7 buttons have dual functions when turned on and off, noted on the diagram under the G3’s rear tilt flap. These functions are described as necessary in this manual.

CHARGING Ni-MH BATTERIES IN THE G3

With its included AC adapter/charger connected, the G3 internally recharges 4 Ni-MH (nickel-metal-hydride) rechargeable batteries (not included). Note that the G3 can still play while the batteries are charging; the alarm functions will work.

To charge batteries:

1.Connect the AC adapter/charger.

2.With the G3 turned off, install 4 NI-MH batteries and connect the AC adapter/charger.

3.Press the F7 button for about 3 seconds, or until CHARGE 00 appears in the display.

4.Use the tuning knob to select the charging time in hours (00-36) based on the mAh rating of your batteries: 11 hours for 1100 mAH rating; 23 hours for 2300 mAH rating, etc. and press the PAGE/TIME button when finished.

5.In the display, the battery symbol’s segments continuously activate from left to right during charging. Battery charging terminates once the set charge time has been reached.

INITIAL SETTINGS

Assure that it is powered with the AC adapter or batteries, that it is unlocked and that the DX/LOCAL switch (left side panel) is in the DX position (up).

SETTING UP AM AND FM OUTSIDE OF

NORTH AMERICA

In North America, AM stations are spaced by 10 KHz. In Europe and other areas, they are spaced by 9 KHz. In North America, the FM band begins at 87.5 MHz. In other parts of the world, it may begin at 76 MHz. Follow these steps to set this for your area:

1.With the G3 off, press the F5 button for about 3 seconds – ‘9’ or ‘10’ flashes in the display.

2.Use sequential F5 presses to select 9 or 10, then press the ‘PAGE/TIME’ button – the FM frequency flashes in the display.

3.Sequentially press the F5 button until the beginning FM frequency of your area appears, then press PAGE/TIME.
