• Never reuse a disconnected chip component.

• Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be

damaged by heat.

Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the lead-
free mark (LF) indicating the solder contains no lead.
(Caution: Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with

the lead free mark due to their particular size)

Unleaded solder has the following characteristics.

• Unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40 ˚C higher

than ordinary solder.

Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be

applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time.

Soldering irons using a temperature regulator should be set to

about 350 ˚C.
Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if

the heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!

• Strong viscosity

Unleaded solder is more viscou-s (sticky, less prone to flow)

than ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder bridges
occur such as on IC pins, etc.

• Usable with ordinary solder

It is best to use only unleaded solder but unleaded solder may

also be added to ordinary solder.

The clock time display of this unit is a 12-hour system.
When the batteries are first installed,  AM 12:00  flashes and  CLOCK  turns on
in the display.

Press RADIO POWER to turn off the power.

Press MODE/FREEZE repeatedly until  CLOCK  appears.

Hold down ENTER/SELECT for more than 2 seconds until

AM 12  starts flashing.

Push the Jog lever towards + or – to adjust the hour, then press
ENTER/SELECT.

The beep sounds and the minute setting starts to flash.
If you hold down the Jog lever towards
