Hints and tips
(>>/<<) DAB Secondary services
Secondary services accompany some stations, providing extra information or alternative
content and may only be broadcast at certain times. At the time of writing not many
secondary services are available. If a station has secondary services available, the station
shows ‘>>’ next to its name in the station list and the secondary service appears next to the
station in the list. A secondary service has a ‘<<’ before its name in the station list.
(?) Inactive or unavailable DAB stations
Inactive or unavailable stations are those which appear on the station list but are not
currently available because either you are outside the broadcast area, have lost reception or
the station is not currently broadcasting. Unavailable stations have a ‘?’ before their name
on the station list. If you select a station which has this symbol, Legato returns to the last
station you were listening to.
I hear a ‘burbling’ sound on some DAB stations
Although DAB is excellent at providing quality audio from very little signal, the quality can
suffer if the signal strength is too low. If that happens, a ‘burbling’ sound can sometimes
be heard. To help reduce this, check that your aerial is fully extended and upright. If the
problem persists try moving your radio or repositioning your aerial using manual tuning.
Screen says ‘No stations available’ in DAB mode
Check that your aerial is fully extended. Use Autotune to search for stations. Use manual
tuning to adjust your aerial or radio position.
Clock shows the wrong time
This may happen if the DAB multiplex you are tuned to broadcasts an incorrect time signal,
try tuning to a station in another multiplex.
Resetting your unit
Resetting your Legato removes all presets, stored stations and favourite station settings and
resets all options to defaults. To reset:
1. Press and hold the Menu button for three seconds. The screen shows ‘Do you want to
reset?’.
2. Push the ‘Yes’ shortcut button or use the +/- or and select button on the remote to
confirm the reset or press no buttons to cancel the reset.
My speakers don’t sound good
Make sure that the red (positive) terminal on the speakers is connected to the red terminal
on Legato and black (negative) to black .
Ensure the connections are secure and bared ends of the cables are contacting the metal of
the terminals.
Note that from new, the sound from your speakers should improve over the course of a few
days as they are ‘run-in’.
My screen is too bright in standby
To set the brightness of your screen in standby press the Menu button, select Display and
choose Standby settings to alter the brightness.
Alarm bell icon has a cross through it
This happens if you set an alarm but no DAB time has been acquired yet. Check that your
aerial is connected, return to DAB or standby and wait for a short period and the normal icon
should appear indicating that the time has been acquired.
Screen says ‘DAB time not available’
This happens in CD/MP3/FM/AUX mode if DAB time has been acquired yet. Check that your
aerial is connected, switch to DAB mode or standby, wait for a short period and the time
should appear.
