Using your Retro DAB/FM Radio with Bluetooth

Using your Retro DAB/FM Radio

Let’s get started

Using your Retro DAB/FM Radio

Let’s get started

Telescopic aerial

Please make sure that the aerial is fully extended before you attempt to tune to a DAB 
station (a vertical position is recommended). This will ensure that the maximum signal 
strength is available when the radio begins to scan. Extending the aerial also ensures the 
best possible sound quality.

DAB Radio mode

•  Check that your Radio is in DAB mode. If you are not already in DAB mode, turn the 

Mode control until you are in DAB mode (check the display).  

•  The first time you use the Radio or if the station list is empty, your radio will 

automatically begin to scan for DAB radio stations.  A progress bar will show the 
progress of the scan and the number of stations found during the scan will also be 
displayed. 

Changing DAB stations

1. 

Turn the Tune/Select control to scroll through the available stations. 

2. 

When the station that you would like to listen to is displayed, press the Tune/Select 
control to select it.  There will be a short delay whilst your radio tunes to your selected 
station. 

Scanning for DAB stations

With DAB radio additional stations and services regularly become available, so it’s a good 
idea to carry out a manual scan every now and then to make sure that you have the most 
up to date station listing stored within the memory of your Radio. If you have moved your 
Radio to another location, e.g.: if you go on holiday, then it’s also a good idea to carry out 
a manual scan. 

In DAB mode: 

1. 

Short press the Scan button to begin a search for stations.  The display will change 
to ‘Scanning...’.  A progress bar will show the progress of the scan and the number of 
stations found during the scan will also be displayed.

Prune DAB stations

You can remove the DAB stations in the station list that cannot be received in your area.   
These are listed with a ‘?’ prefix. 

In DAB mode: 

1. 

Long press the Menu button to enter the menu options. 

2. 

Use the Tune/Select control to scroll to <Prune>.  Press to Select. 

3. 

Prune? Yes <No> is displayed.  Use the Tune/Select control to scroll to Yes.  Press 
to Select and prune the station list. Stations with a ‘?’ prefix will now no longer be 
displayed.

Storing a DAB station preset

Your Radio can store up to 10 DAB radio stations in its preset memories for instant access 
to your favourite stations.

Note:

 When you store DAB radio station presets, these do not overwrite your FM 

station presets. 

1. 

Tune the Radio to the DAB radio station that you wish to preset.

2. 

Long press the Preset button for approximately 2 seconds until Preset Store 
<1:(Empty)> is displayed.  

3. 

Use the Tune/Select control to move to the preset location that you would like to 
store the radio station to (1-10).

4. 

Press the Tune/Select control to Select.  The display will confirm Preset X stored, 
where ‘X’ is the number of the preset (1-10). 

Note:

 If there is already an existing DAB station stored under a preset, it will be over 

written when you store the new station.
