LISTENING FOR THE FIRST TIME

SETTING UP

The first time you use your Lite radio, a quick scan of 
Band III DAB channels will be performed.

The display will read ‘Fast Scanning’. The station 
counter on the right hand side will increase as any new
stations are added to the radio’s station list and the bar
on the bottom will indicate progress. 

If the station list is still empty after scanning, the 
radio will display ‘No Signal’. If no station signals are 
found, you may need to move your radio to a position
with better reception. As little as 10cm may be 
enough.

Pressing the BAND button will allow you to switch 
between DAB and FM radio modes. 

DAB

(Digital Audio Broadcasting) offers digital sound 

quality, added functionality and information. 

FM

offers a traditional analogue broadcasting medium 

for those stations not yet using DAB.

13

The top line of the display shows the name of the 
station currently selected. 

To select a new station, turn the TUNE knob to scroll 
through the list of available DAB stations displayed on 
the bottom line. Press the TUNE knob in to select the 
station you require. The display may show ’Now 
Tuning’ while the radio finds your new selection.

NOTE: IF AFTER 
SELECTING A 
STATION, THE 
DISPLAY SHOWS 
‘NOT AVAILABLE’, IT 
MAY BE NECESSARY 
TO  MOVE THE RADIO 
TO A POSITION WITH BETTER 
RECEPTION.
