Front Panel Features Continued:
9. SNOOZE (top of cabinet): When the Alarm sounds, press, hold, and then release the Snooze button to |
silence the Alarm for approximately 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, the alarm sound will automatically resume. |
10. CLOCK: This quartz analog clock features a fine mechanical quartz movement for superb accuracy. The |
clock operates off of a single “AA” battery so power failures will not affect the clock’s accuracy. Check the |
battery annually so the clock remains accurate. The clock’s illumination cannot be turned off or adjusted. It |
4. | ANTENNA SWITCH: Switch between internal and external FM antennae. If the included FM antenna is |
| used, set this switch to external. This switch has no affect on AM reception. |
5. | EXTERNAL FM CONNECTION: The Model Three has |
| reception, insert the end of the supplied FM antenna into the center of this “F” connector and set the switch |
| to External. Adjust the wire for best reception. See the section marked “Reception” for more information. |
| This connection has no affect on AM reception. |
How to set the clock:
The clock hands will automatically rotate when the battery is correctly installed to indicate the clock is function- ing. Within 5 minutes of inserting a fresh battery, a beep will be heard indicating the alarm is functioning. This beep will not be heard if the radio is on at the time. Set the hands to the correct time with the Time Set button once the hands have finished rotating. Push the Time Set button in and release to move the hour hand in small increments or hold the button in to continuously advance the hands. Be sure the front panel alarm button is in the off position when adjusting the time.
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 cause noise. If you experience this, plug the Model Three into an outlet not shared by another device or move it further away from the offending device.
Placement:
Placing your Model Three inside a bookshelf or against a wall will inflate the bass as well as confine the speak- er’s output. For best sound reproduction, allow the sound from the speaker to reflect off of a ceiling without

Guide to features (rear panel):
1.BALANCE: If The Stereo Speaker or Dual Alarm Speaker (sold separately) is not connected, the Balance knob should be set to the Left channel position and the Mono/Stereo switch should be set to Mono. If the Dual Alarm Speaker or Stereo Speaker (sold separately) is connected, set the Balance control to the center detent position for equal balance, or upward to hear the main unit speaker, or downward to hear the (right) Stereo Speaker, and set Mono/Stereo switch to Stereo.

3.12VDC, 1.5A: Connect the included AC power supply to this input. Use only the power supply provided with
this product. To obtain a replacement, contact your authorized dealer or Tivoli Audio, USA: 1.877.297.9479. The power supply connector is 5.5mm/2.1mm x 13mm long, center positive. Do not connect the power sup- ply to an electrical outlet controlled by a wall switch. It is normal for the power supply to become warm dur- ing use. An optional 12VDC nominal, 1.5A fused source may also be used.
8. | AUX IN: To hear audio from another device, such as Tivoli Audio's Model CD, connect the device’s audio |
| output to this stereo input and switch the source knob to Aux. Note that you may need to adjust the volume |
| level differently for an auxiliary device than the level normally used for radio listening. This jack accepts a |
| 1/8" stereo male mini plug. |
9. | REC OUT: You may record from the Model Three by connecting a cassette deck or other recording device |
| to this fixed level, stereo output. You may also use the Model Three as a |
| tuner by connecting a preamplifier or integrated amplifier to this output. The Model Three’s speaker will not |
| be muted when using this output. This jack accepts a 1/8" stereo male mini plug. |
10. | MIX IN: Connect your computer’s (or other device) audio output to this stereo input to hear audio |
| with either the tuner or auxiliary device if one is connected. The volume level of this input must be adjusted |
| at the source. This jack accepts a 1/8" stereo male mini plug. |
11. | MONO/STEREO: This switch should remain in the Mono position unless the right Stereo Speaker (sold |
| separately) is connected, in which case the Stereo position should be selected. If you are using the Stereo |
| Speaker and have the switch set to Stereo, you may wish to experiment with this switch during radio listen- |
| ing, as the Mono position may help to clean up FM static noise. The Headphone and Record outputs are |
| Stereo and are not affected by this switch, unless the Source knob is set to AM (which is always Mono) or |
| FM and this switch is set to Mono. |
12. | TIME SET: Briefly press and release this button to advance the hands in small increments. Press and hold |
| this button to continuously advance the clock’s hands. Release the button when the clock is set properly. |
| Be sure the alarm button is in the Off position when setting the time. See “How to set the clock”. |
13. ALARM GRILLE: The alarm beep emits from this grille. Do not block this grille | |
14. BATTERY BACK UP: Remove the battery cover and install a fresh major brand 1.5V “AA” alkaline battery, | |
| observing correct +/– polarity. The clock operates off of the battery continuously and the battery |
| also acts as a back up. In the event of a power failure, the battery back up will maintain the clock’s |
operation and sound the

A word about radio reception:
For difficult FM reception conditions, if an outdoor antenna is not an option, attach the included antenna to the external FM antenna jack on the back panel and set the switch to “External”. Alternately, an FM dipole antenna or amplified indoor FM antenna may be used. The best place to locate an indoor antenna is near a window or outside wall. Sometimes just reorienting the radio will improve reception. Since the power cord acts as an extension of the internal FM antenna, moving the power cord may also improve reception. Connecting your cable television wire to the external antenna jack may also provide clear local FM reception, although you usu- ally must request activation of this service through your local cable company.
Although there is no connection to wire an external AM antenna, a wireless AM loop antenna (not included) often provides better AM reception than most
Never use harsh cleansers or solvents or abrasive pads. The face may be cleaned with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Take care not to rub too hard. For the wood cabinet, liquid polish usually yields better results than
Painting or staining the cabinet is not recommended and will void your warranty.
Since the cabinet is natural wood, it is not always possible to achieve an exact color/grain match between the main unit and other Tivoli Audio products. You may also notice the wood darken over time.
Do not use glass cleaner or other chemicals to clean the clock’s window.
