  GETTING STARTED

DAB/FM AERIAL

Before  using  your  radio  for  DAB  or  FM  reception, 
always fully extend the telescopic aerial. The telescopic 
aerial has a swivel base to enable it to be adjusted to 
different positions for the clearest sound.

CONNECTING POWER

Before  connecting  the  power,  check  that  the  mains 
voltage  on  the  rating  plate  of  the  AC  adapter  is  the 
same as the voltage in your area.

Plug the large USB plug on the DC power cable into 

• 

the AC adapter.
Connect the small plug into the DC-In jack on the 

• 

back of the unit. 
Plug the AC adapter into the wall socket and switch 

• 

the mains power on.

The unit is now ready for use.

NOTE:-  The  AC  adapter  may  become  warm  during 
operation - this is normal.

SETTING THE CLOCK

The clock on your radio is automatically set when first 
used from the time signal broadcast with DAB radio 
stations.
If a DAB station is not available, the clock may be set 
manually via the MENU system (see page 13).
