These servicing instructions are for use by qualified service personnel only. To reduce the risk of the electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than that contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to so. VERY IMPORTANT PLEASE READ Sangean suggest that you keep your AC Adapter at least 12 inches away from the radio while listening to the AM Band. Your Sangean Radio is powered by an AC adapter which is a switching or switch-mode type. The DOE (Department Of Energy) has a Federal mandate;

requiring all manufactures to use this type of power supply. This newer power saving technology has the unfortunate side effect of causing interference to the AM radio band. Therefore, we recommend that customers keep at least a 1 foot distance between the AC adapter and the radio. This interference will not affect the FM Band. If you have any questions please contact customer service at (888)726-

4326, (562)941-9900 or service@sangean.com If an AC adapter isnt included in this model and if you wish to purchase an AC Adapter separately, please refer to the specifications for the AC Adapter stated on the final page of the manual, or please contact Sangean for the correct AC Adapter and specifications. To learn more about the DOE mandate please visit http://www1.eere.energy. gov/ buildings/appliance_standards/product.aspx/productid/23 Please note not all AC adapters are alike. The AC adapter that is included with this radio is designed to be used exclusively with this device. Do not use an AC adapter that differs from the specifications on the AC adapter that is included. If an AC adapter is NOT included with your radio and in order not to damage the unit and void your warranty, specifications for the AC Adapter are stated on the final page of the manual, or please contact Sangean for the correct AC Adapter and specifications. For customers in the US and Canada, please call 562-941-9900 or 888-726-4326. For all other areas, please contact us via contact@sangean.com. Do not use an AC adapter that does not meet the correct specifications. Cautions Do not allow this radio to be exposed to water, steam or sand. Do not leave your radio where excessive heat could cause damage such as in a parked car where the heat from the sun can build up even though the outside temperature may not seem too high. 2 Standby (Main Power) button / Sleep timer button 5 Volume / Tuning control / Seek / Select button Controls 1 NFC detection area 3 Source button 4 Alarm 1 button 6 Alarm 2 button 7 Info / Menu button 8 Preset 5 button 9 Preset 4 / Next track / Fast-forward button 10 Preset 3 / Play / Pause button 11 Snooze / dimmer button 12 Preset 2 / Previous track / Rewind button 13 Preset 1 / Bluetooth pairing button 14 Speaker 15 LCD display 16 Remote control sensor 17 Dimmer sensor 19 Backup battery compartment 20 DC IN socket 21 Headphone socket 18 USB-L and USB-R sockets for iPhone / Smartphone charging f Seek down button / Previous track / Rewind button F Frequency / information for station display G RDS indicator I Bluetooth icon H Backup battery capacity indicator Remote control a Standby button (Main Power) b Mute button c Preset button d Menu button e Tuning up button g Alarm 1 button h Treble up button i Bass up button j Bass down button k Treble down button l Snooze button / Dimmer button m Loudness button n Mono / Stereo button o Bluetooth pairing button p Tuning down button q Alarm 2 button 8 of your radio. of your radio. d.

Listening music via Bluetooth streaming You need to pair your Bluetooth device with your RCR-40 before you can auto-link to play / stream Bluetooth music through your RCR-40. Paring creates a bond so two devices can recognize each other. 1. With your radio switched on, press the Source button to select Bluetooth (BT) function. BT PAIRING will appear on the display. Both PAIRING and the Bluetooth icon will flash to show the radio is discoverable. 2. Activate Bluetooth on your device according to the devices user manual to link to the radio. Locate the Bluetooth device list and select the device named RCR-40 (With some Smartphones that are equipped with earlier versions than BT2.1 Bluetooth device, you may need to input the pass code 0000). 3. Once connected, there will be a confirmation tone sound and the display will change to BT LINKED. The Bluetooth icon will remain illuminated. You can simply select and play any music from your source device. The volume control can be adjusted from your source device, or directly from the radio. 4. Use the controls on your Bluetooth-enabled device or on the radio to play /

pause and navigate tracks. Note:

If 2 Bluetooth devices are pairing for the first time, both must search for your radio, it will show its availability on both devices. However, if one device links with this unit first, then the other Bluetooth device will not be found on the list. If you take your source device out of range, the connection will be temporarily 10 disconnected to your radio. Your radio will automatically reconnect if the source device is brought back in range. Be aware that during the period of disconnection, no other Bluetooth device can pair or link with your radio. If RCR-40 shows in your Bluetooth device list but your device cannot connect with it, please delete the item from your list and pair the device with the radio again following the steps described previously. The effective operation range between the system and the paired device is approximately 10 meters (30 feet). Any obstacle between the system and the device can reduce the operational range. Bluetooth / NFC connectivity performance may vary depending on the connected Bluetooth devices. Please refer to the Bluetooth capabilities of your device before connecting to your radio. All features may not be supported on some paired Bluetooth devices. With some mobile phones, making receiving calls, text messages, e-mails or any other activities unrelated to audio streaming may mute the Bluetooth audio streaming or even temporarily disconnect from your device. Such behavior is a function of the connected device and does not indicate a fault with your RCR-40.

PlayingaudiofilesinBluetoothmode When you have successfully connected your radio with the chosen Bluetooth device you can start to play your music using the controls on your connected Bluetooth device. 1.
