12. REC OUT: You can record from the Model One radio by connecting a cassette deck’s audio
input (or other recording device) to this fixed level stereo output. You can also use the Model One
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.
13. AC INPUT: 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 an optional FM dipole antenna
with adapter. 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 appli-
ances, 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.
Placement
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.
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 no-
tice the wood darken over time with exposure to sunlight. Again, this is normal for real wood.
It is also possible dyed veneers such as blue, red, etc., could fade from exposure to sunlight.
This is not covered under the warranty.
