➢ Connect the supplied AC power cable to a properly installed safety power socket and plug the cable into the AC socket at the backside of the unit.

BATTERY OPERATION

1. Open the lid of the battery compartment at the bottom of the unit.
2. Insert 6 batteries of type LR14 (“C” size) 1.5 V. Please ensure that the polarity is correct (see indicated in the battery compartment).
3. Then close the battery lid.

Note:
➢ If the device is operated with batteries and is in standby mode, the batteries will still be discharged. To avoid this, we recommend removing the batteries or connecting the device to the mains. The display and the blue lights are turned off.
➢ When the unit is powered by batteries, in order to play longer time, it is better not to adjust the volume to max.
ERP power management
The unit will turn off automatically after 10 minutes in standby mode if there is no audio signal. To turn on the unit again press the “STANDBY / FUNCTION” button.
BASIC OPERATIONS

DAB

Extend completely the telescopic antenna. Change its position to improve the reception. Press repeatedly the “STANDBY / FUNCTION” button, until “DAB” is shown in the display. The radio will automatically start a full scan of DAB+ stations if the unit is powered on the first time. When the scan is complete, the stations are stored in alphabetical order. The first available station will be played.
Note:
If there is no DAB+ reception at any time, change the position of the unit or adjust the antenna.
Press and hold the “SCAN / PROG” button for approx. 3 seconds to start a new search.
Select DAB radio station
Press the “SKIP – / TUNING -” or “SKIP + / TUNING +” and select the desired radio station.
To confirm the selection, press the “PLAY / PAUSE / CLOCK / ENTER” button.

DAB information
Press repeatedly the “INFO / FM ST.” button to show the following DAB information:
DLS, signal strength, genre, frequency, signal error, audio bit rate, time, date.
DAB menu
To enter the DAB menu, press the “STOP / MENU” button. Select with the “SKIP – / TUNING -” or “SKIP + / TUNING +” one of the following settings and press “PLAY / PAUSE / CLOCK / ENTER”:

• Full scan:
  Starts the station scan. The DAB frequency band is scanned for stations.

• Manual tune:
  To do so you need to know the station frequency. This can be found on the internet site of the broadcasting service. Select individual frequencies using the “PLAY / PAUSE / CLOCK / ENTER” button.

• DRC:
  Short for Digital Range Control (dynamic range). The term DRC describes the ratio between the quietest and the loudest sound. If the dynamic range is very high there are very soft sounds as well as very loud sounds.
  Under some circumstances, this may present a problem with playback. Let us assume that you are listening to a radio station in a relatively loud environment. By increasing the volume you can play the quiet sections louder.
  This however has the disadvantage that the loud sections become uncomfortably loud. It makes sense here to reduce the dynamic range. Select between the options:
  – DRC off: The dynamic range is not reduced.
  – DRC high: The dynamic range is sharply reduced.
  – DRC low: The dynamic range is slightly reduced

• Prune:
  It may be that you can no longer receive some stations after a station scan or change of location. With this function, you can delete these stations from the reception list. Select “YES” and confirm with the “PLAY / PAUSE / CLOCK / ENTER” button.
