stations, place the BAND WIDTH control in the NARROW position. If there is no interference, leave it in the WIDE position. If there is excess background noise, turn on the SW LPF switch, which may minimize the noise. If a station is so strong that audio distortion occurs, reduce the gain level with the AM/SW RF GAIN control knob

by turning it counter-clockwise.

The Frequency Lock feature, described on page 13, also works with shortwave.

11 SETTING THE CLOCK

The S350DL’s clock is a selectable 12-hour AM/PM mode or 24-hour mode time system. To toggle between 12 and 24 hour modes, turn off the S350DL. Then, press the Hour button for about 3 seconds until 12 or 24 flashes in the dis- play. Then release the Hour button. When AM or PM appears in the display, it is set in the 12-hour AM/PM mode. If they are not in the display, it is in the 24-hour mode.

The radio can be turned on/off to set the clock. With the radio turned on/off, hold down the TIME button for two seconds, then release it. The time display will flash. While it is flashing press the HOUR and MINUTE buttons to set the correct time. After setting the correct time, immediately press the TIME button to finalize the entry. If the TIME button is not pressed, the display will automatically finalize the entry after about five

seconds. While setting the time, the HOUR and MINUTE buttons can be held down to advance the time faster.

Note: When the radio is turned off, the display panel shows the time. When it is turned on, it shows a radio frequency. While on, pressing the TIME button causes the display to change from frequency to time for about three seconds, after which it shows frequency again.
