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

To use the G3 in North America (U.S. or Canada), no changes to the initial factory settings are needed.

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

87.5MHz. 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.

VOLUME CONTROL

With the G3 on or off, use the +-/VOL buttons or the numeric keypad to adjust to volume levels 0-31. The level number appears in the display. To adjust the volume with the numeric keypad, enter the desired

volume level and press either the + or – VOL button within 3 seconds.

SELECTING LW, AM, FM, AIRCRAFT BAND AND SHORTWAVE

Please note that in North America no Longwave (LW) stations are broadcasting on this band and that you may hear broadcast band images.

1.Turn on the G3. To select LW or AM press the AM BAND button, noting that each press of this button flips to either LW or the AM band.

2.For FM press the FM BAND button. Note that a second press takes you to Air Craft band.

3.To enter the Air Craft band press the FM button twice.

4.To enter a specific shortwave band, sequentially press the ‘METERBAND’

button to select the band of your choice. The most popular shortwave bands can also be accessed with the F1-F7 buttons (F1=49m, F2=41m, F3=31m, F4=25m, F5=22m, F6=19m and F7=16m).

When listening to FM, shortwave or Air Craft Band, fully extend the telescopic antenna. It need not be extended when listening to LW or AM stations (the LW/AM antenna is located inside the G3).

FM RDS

RDS (radio data system) allows the radio to display the station identification, artist’s name, song title, date and other text if the station transmits this information. The station may or may not transmit some or part of this information. To see if the station is transmitting any RDS information, turn RDS on by pressing the RDS button. Then press the RDS MODE button to see what is being transmitted.
