Operating the Radio

The  can receive both FM (VHF) radio and DAB+ (digital radio). The
integral DAB+ receiving section is backwards-compatible with DAB, to ensure
that you have access to a wide range of stations.
You can select your preferred type of reception by pressing the

button -
repeatedly if necessary.
Favourites lists are available for FM and DAB mode, enabling you to manage your
favourite stations conveniently.

When you are listening to DAB radio, it may take up to two seconds to switch
stations, depending on the frequency band.

If the station you wish to listen to is very weak or very distant, and can only be
picked up with severe background noise, you should always switch to MONO
mode as this reduces the unwanted hiss significantly.

station are also stored, and are automatically restored the next time you call up
the station.
