    LISTENING TO YOUR RADIO

Hints for better reception

This radio carries a single DAB/FM lead wire antenna, to obtain the best performance, you should fully 
extend  the  wire  antenna  and  adjust  the  position  as  well  as  the  direction  until  you  find  the  best 
reception.  For  ideal  DAB  reception,  always  maintain  the  lead  wire  antenna  in  a  vertical  position 
(holding it upward or downward behind the unit) is highly recommended.

DAB mode

If the radio is connected to the power and then switched on from standby for the first time, the radio will 
automatically  enter  into  the  DAB  mode  and  perform  auto  scan  function.  During  the  scan  the  display 
will  show  “Scanning  …”  together  with  a  slide  bar  that  indicates  the  progress  of  the  scan  and  the 
amount of stations that have been found so far. (F. 3) (F. 4)

 
Once  the  scan  has  finished,  the  radio  will  select  the  first  alphanumerically  found  station. To  explore
