Turn on the radio and turn the AM/SW BAND switch to the AM position. MW appears in the display. Use the outer ‘fast’ tuning knob to find stations, fine tuning with the inner ‘slow’ knob
when needed.

• If there is interference from adjacent stations, place the BAND WIDTH control in the NARROW position. If there is no interference, leave it in the WIDE position.

• If there is excess background noise, turn on
the SW LPF switch, which may minimize the noise.

• If a station is so strong that audio distortion occurs, reduce the gain level with the AM/SW RF GAIN control knob by turning it counterclockwise.

• The telescopic antenna does not have to be extended for AM reception. The radio has an internal, directional, ferrite-bar antenna for AM reception.

• To optimize AM reception, swivel the radio until maximum signal strength is achieved.

All of that being said: It's very tough nowadays to receive AM in this 2008 electronic world. If your able install a longwire SW antenna outside, and have access to a good earth ground, you can boost the AM signals and beat the noise being generated all around you.

You say Service manual and its is possible you are looking for the schematics of the radio or how to repair it. I admit I have no idea where you can get it. However, here is the link to the user's manual.

The ON button is also a SLEEP timer. The timer can be set to 90 minutes, 75, and son on. The shortest time period is about 1 minute. Press the ON/SLEEP button several times. After each press read the number displayed. As you push the button again you will cycle through all available timer settings. Choose one that its long enough for you.However if you press the ON/Sleep button for a few seconds the radio will play continusously until you turn it off.Just play with the RED button a few times to get an idea how long to press to make the radio play continuously.
