Installation
Aerial
Extend the aerial (14) fully for the best signal reception.
The optimum DAB signal reception is usually achieved when the aerial is vertical.
Connecting the power adaptor
Connect the power adaptor to the DC IN socket (18) and to a 230 V wall socket.
The radio should be unplugged during heavy thunder storms to protect it from
lightning strikes.
When the radio is connected to an electrical outlet it will first enter standby mode.
The display will first show “Welcome to Digital Radio”, thereafter the time will
be shown.
Battery operation

electricity supply (via the mains power adaptor).
1. Remove the battery cover (15) by first sliding it in the direction of the arrow.
2. Insert 4 × AA/LR6 batteries. Observe the markings in the battery compartment to
ensure correct polarity.
3. Refit the battery cover.
When battery operated, the on/off button [
] functions as a power switch.
When the radio is switched of it does not enter standby mode as when connected to
the mains, instead it is completely switched off and the display goes blank.
Note:
Remove the batteries from the radio if it is not to be used for a long time.
Old batteries can begin to leak and damage the radio.
External audio source input socket
If you wish to connect an external audio source to the radio such as a mobile phone,
MP3 player or DVD player, you can do this by plugging it into the AUX IN socket on
the back of the radio (16).
