Troubleshooting
DAB radio mode
Check that your Boombox is in DAB radio mode. If you are not already in DAB mode,
briefly press and release the Power/Mode button on the front of the Boombox, until you
are in DAB mode (check the display).
The first time you use the Boombox or if the station list is empty, your Boombox 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.
When the scan is complete your Boombox will select the first available station and begin
to play. Stations are listed in numerical and then alphabetical order by default.
Telescopic radio aerial
Please make sure that the telescopic aerial on the back of the Boombox is fully extended
and adjusted before you attempt to tune to a DAB radio station (a vertical position is
recommended). This will ensure that the maximum signal strength is available when
the Boombox begins to scan. Extending the aerial also ensures the best possible sound
quality.
Changing DAB stations
In DAB mode:
1.
Use the Rotary tune wheel to move through the available stations.
2.
When the station that you would like to listen to is displayed, you can wait a short
while and your Boombox will tune to your displayed station or you can press and
release the Select button.
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 Boombox.
If you have moved your Boombox 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.
Press and release the Scan/Repeat button on the Boombox 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.
1.
Press and hold the Menu/Info button to enter the menu options. Use the Rotary tune
wheel to move to <Prune>. Press and release the Select button.
1.
‘Prune? Yes <No> ’ is displayed. Use the Rotary tune wheel to move to ‘<Yes>’. Press
and release the Select button to prune the station list. Stations with a ‘?’ prefix will now
no longer be displayed.
2.
Press and release the Menu/Info button to exit from the Menu.
Storing a DAB station preset
Your Boombox can store up to 10 DAB radio stations in its preset memories for instant
access to your favourite stations.
1.
Tune the Boombox to the DAB radio station that you wish to preset.
2.
Press and hold the Preset button for approximately 2 seconds until ‘Preset Store’ is
displayed.
3.
Use the Rotary tune wheel to move to the preset location that you would like to store
the radio station to (1-10).
4.
Press and release the Select button. 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.
