radio as a high performance analog tuner by connecting it to the audio input of a preamplifier
or integrated amplifier. The primary speaker will not be muted when using this output. This
jack accepts a 1/8" stereo male mini connector.
8. 117V: Connect the included power cord to this input. When unplugging the power cord from
the wall outlet, always grab it by the plug. We recommend using a powerstrip with surge
protection. When disconnecting the power cord, always grasp it firmly at the connector.
Never pull on the cord itself. Do not bundle the power cord together with the external FM
antenna or any audio cables, as this can inject noise in the audio path.
Reception:
The internal FM and AM antennas will provide good reception. An optional outdoor antenna will
provide the best possible reception. Another alternative is to use the supplied indoor external
FM antenna or an optional FM dipole antenna with adapter. Locating the indoor antenna near a
window or outside wall will provide better reception than more interior locations. Connecting your
cable television 75ohm coaxial cable to the external FM connection may also provide clear local
reception, although you must usually request activation of this service through your cable company.
For AM, rotate the radio for best reception. An optional external AM wireless or wired antenna
may provide improved AM reception.
Buildings made with concrete, steel, or aluminum siding will hinder reception. Household appliances,
electric blankets, computers, CD players, and other electronic devices can also adversely affect
reception or inject noise. If you experience this, move the Model One radio further from the offending
device or plug it into an electrical outlet not shared by another device. Metal surfaces may also
hinder AM reception.
Placment
Place the unit on a flat, stable surface. Do not block the bottom bass port. The Model One radio is
not video shielded and should be kept at least 5" away from a computer monitor or television. The
Model One radio can be positioned vertically as well as horizontally. Placement in a bookcase,
cabinet, or close to walls or corners may inflate the bass.
Cleaning:
Never use any harsh cleansers or solvents on your radio. Avoid spray-on waxes. Unplug the
Model One radio prior to cleaning. The face may be cleaned with a slightly damp, soft cloth.
Painting or staining the wood cabinet will void your warranty.
The variations in color and grain are characteristics of real wood and give the cabinet its
natural beauty. As a result, the cabinet's finish may not match other Tivoli Audio products.
Also note some finishes, particularly walnut, may darken over time to light exposure. This is
normal for a natural wood product.
NOTE: Tivoli Audio cabinets use real wood veneers. Since natural wood varies greatly, it is not
possible to achieve an exact wood color/grain match between models. You may also notice
the wood darken over time with exposure to sunlight. Again, this is normal for real wood.
