Check that your Radio is in FM radio mode.  When your radio is in 
FM mode it can receive Radio Data System or ‘RDS’ information if 
this is being transmitted by the broadcaster.  RDS information will 
often include the station name, detail about the programme and 
the current time. 

Tuning to an FM station

Note: Plug the earphones supplied into the headphone socket on 
the end of the pocket radio.  The earphones also work as the radio 
aerial and so these need to be connected when you scan for FM 
radio stations
In FM mode:
1.  Press, hold and then release the ‘Tune +’ button to scan up the 

frequency band.  Press, hold then release the ‘Tune –‘ button to 
scan down the frequency band. ‘Scanning…’ will be displayed 
and your radio will search for the next available station and then 
stop on that station.

2.  Press and release the ‘Tune –‘ or ‘Tune +’ button to fine tune 

each frequency in 0.05MHz steps, if necessary.

Changing the scan setting

In FM mode:
1.  Press and hold the ‘Select’ button.  ‘Switch To DAB’ is displayed. 
2.  Press and release the ‘Tune –‘ or ‘Tune +’ buttons to scroll to 

‘<Scan setting>’.

3.  Press and release the ‘Select’ button.  .  There are now two 

different options to choose from and the current setting will 
have an ‘*’ next to it.

•  Strong stations - the scan will only stop when a strong signal 

strength is received which should also result in a better audio 
quality.
