Getting Started
The CCRadio-EP will run on four “D” size NiMH or alkaline batteries or
on 120V AC house current using the included power cord. Batteries are
optional.
Before powering your radio be sure to read
the Safety Instructions on page 11.
Before you plug the AC power adapter into the radio, be sure the AC
voltage is 120Volts/60Hz.
Note: f you have batteries in the radio and you use the AC power cord,
the batteries will automatically be disconnected.
Plug the supplied AC power
adapter into the “DC N 6V”
power jack on the left side of
the radio.
POWERING YOUR RADIO
AC OPERATION
Page 8 CCRadio-EP
Getting Started
1) Position the radio on a soft surface
face down, with the bottom of
the radio facing you.
2) On the battery compartment arrow
marked “OPEN”, use two fingers to
press down and towards you until
the cover slides off.
3) nsert four “D” batteries as shown
in the diagram inside the battery
compartment. Notice that the fourth battery is inserted between the
second and third batteries for easiest insertion. Be sure that the “+”
polarity mark on the batteries point to the right.
4) Replace the battery compartment door by sliding it towards the top
of the radio.
INSTALLING THE BATTERIES

Note: When the batteries are very low you may notice a decrease in
volume or radio operation has become irregular. Test the radio by using
the AC power adapter to confirm that low batteries are the problem.
Important: Since batteries have been known to sometimes leak, we
recommend removing the batteries when not in use for more than 30
days or if the radio is primarily used with the AC power adapter.

Troubleshooting Guide
The CCRadio-EP will not turn on:
1. Be sure that the batteries are installed correctly.
2. Make sure all batteries are good.
3. f using the AC Adapter, make sure that it is plugged fully into the
power jack.
The CCRadio-EP has poor reception on FM:
1. Fully extend and rotate the FM whip antenna.
2. Adjust the band switch to “FM” instead of “FM ST” which requires a
better signal.
3. Check the “EXT/ N ANTENNA” switch on the back of the radio for
the proper setting.
4. Consider trying a more powerful external FM antenna like C. Craneʼs
FM Reflect Antenna.
The CCRadio-EP has poor reception on AM:
1. Rotate the radio for the best reception.
2. Try positioning the TW N CO L FERR TE®AM F NE TUN NG Knob
in the “Normal” position. f the reception still needs improvement,
adjust the knob for best station tuning accuracy.
3. Adjust the MUS C-VO CE switch to VO CE for best AM audio clarity.
4. Move the radio away from electronic devices like computers and TV
sets.
5. Use the radio on batteries. Sometimes interference can be transmit-
ted to the radio over the AC power lines.
6. Concrete, brick, and metal buildings can greatly reduce radio recep-
tion. Try the radio outside. f the reception is improved, add an exter-
nal AM antenna like C. Craneʼs Twin Coil Ferrite®AM Antenna.
