Power output: 150 mW (at 10 % harmonic distortion) Power requirements: 120 V AC, 60 Hz For the power backup function: 9 V DC, one 6F22 battery Battery life: Approx. 200 minutes, using Sony S-006P(U) battery Dimensions: Approx. 192 x 52 x 155 mm (w/h/d) (75/8 x2 1/4 x 6 1/5 inches) incl. projecting parts and controls Mass: Approx. 520 g (1 Ib 2 oz.) not incl. battery Design and specifications are subject to change without notice, FM/AM CLOCK RADIO SONY. HOW TO CHANGED THE CERAMIC FILTERS This model is used two ceramic filters of CF2 and CF3. You must used same type of color marked ceramic filters in order to meet same specifications. Therefore, the ceramic filter must changed two pieces together since it's supply two pieces in one package as a spare parts. SAFETY CHECK-OUT After correcting the original service problem, perform the follow- ing safety check before releasing the set to the customer: Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs, screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage. Check leakage as described below. Mark | Center frequency CF2 red 10.70 MHz mark blue 10.67 MHz orange 10.73 MHz CF3 black 10.64 MHz white 10.76 MHz SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNINGI! COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY MARK A OR DOTTED LINE WITH MARK A ON THE SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS AND IN THE PARTS LIST ARE CRITICAL TO SAFE OPERATION. REPLACE THESE COMPONENTS WITH SONY PARTS WHOSE PART NUMBERS APPEAR AS SHOWN IN THIS MANUAL OR IN SUPPLEMENTS PUB- LISHED BY SONY. LEAKAGE TEST The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microampers.). Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods. 1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA WT-540A. Follow the manufacturers’ instructions to use these instruments. A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245 digital multimeter is suitable for this job. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a VOM or battery-operated AC voltmeter. The “limit” indication is 0.75 V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-voltage scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples of a pas- sive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated digital multimeters that have a 2 V AC range are suitable.

[RADIO + -EUZZER IE CLOCK H-«TIMESET-M ALARM SLEEP SNOOZE / SLEEP OFF С В SECTION 1 GENERAL This section is extracted from Installing the Battery To keep good time, your Dream Machine needs one 6F22 battery (not supplied), in addition to house current. The battery keeps the clock operating in the event of a power interruption. Before setting the time on your Dream Machine, open the lid at the bottom of the unit, install the battery with correct polarity and then close the lid. » After a power interruption, the displayed time may not be always correct (it may gain or lose about 10 minutes per hour). Knowing When to Replace the Battery * To check battery power, unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet and plug it in again after a few minutes. If the displayed time is incorrect, replace the battery with a new one, Setting the Clock 1 Plug in the unit. The display will flash “AM 12:00”. 2 To set the hour, while holding down CLOCK, press TIME SET H. When the correct hour appears in the display, release CLOCK, 3 To set the minute, while holding down CLOCK, press TIME SET M. When the correct minute appears in the display, release CLOCK. The clock will begin to operate when you release TIME SET M. # The clock system varies depending on the model you own. 12-hour system: “AM 12:00" = midnight * Each press on TIME SET H or TIME SET M advances the displayed number by one. * The minute digits advance ko “00” after “59”, The hour digits do not advance by pressing TIME SET M. * To adjust the time exactly to the second, release TIME SET M simultancously with the time signal. Playing the Radio 1 Set the function selector to RADIO ON to turn on the radio and adjust VOL (volume). 2 Select BAND and tune in to a station using TUNING. * To turn off the radio, set the function selector to OFF. * To improve radio reception FM: Since the AC power cord acts as an antenna, extend the cord to Improve FM reception. AM: Rotate the unit horizontally for optimum reception. A ferrite bar antenna ls built into the unit. instruction manual. Setting the Alarm To set the radio alarm, first tune in to a station and adjust the volume. 1 To set the hour for alarm, while holding down ALARM, press TIME SET H. When the desired hour appears in the display, release ALARM. 2 To set the minute for alarm, while holding down ALARM, press TIME SET M. When the desired minute appears in the display, release ALARM. 3 Set the function selector to the alarm sound of your choice (RADIO or BUZZER). The alarm will come on at the preset time and automatically turn itself off after 119 minutes. * Ta shut off the alarm, set the function selector to OFF, To sound the alarm at the preset time the next day, set the function selector to RADIO or BUZZER again. * To cancel either alarm, set the function selector to OFF, * To dozc a few more minutes, press SNOOZE/ SLEEP OFF. The alarm will shut off, but will come on again after about 9 minutes. You can repeat this ss as many times as you like, * To adjust the radio alarm volume, turn VOL. The buzzer volume is fixed. » To check the preset time, press ALARM, Setting the Sleep Timer Enjoy falling asleep to the radio using the built-in sleep timer that shuts off the radio automatically after a preset time. 1 While listening to the radio, set the function selector to OFF. 2 Press SLEEP. The radio turns on. lt will go off after 59 minutes. * Tu turn off the radio before the preset time, press SNOOZE /SLEEP OFF. » Every time you press SLEEP, the sleep timer is reset to 59 minutes. * When you set the function selector to RADIO or BUZZER, if the preset alarm time comes while the sleep timer is operating, the radio or buzzer sounds depending.on which you set. To Use Both Sleep Timer and Alarm Function You can fall asleep to the radio sound and you will be awakened by the radin/buzzer alarm at the preset ime. 1 Set the alarm.
