OPERATING THE APPLIANCE
Operation Button(s) Description
Switch on and off POWER (4)
The appliance does not have a standby switch, it is switched on and off at the
front. When switched off it is disconnected from the power supply. Before swit-
ching on, the volume setting on the amplifier/preamplifier/receiver should, as
a precaution, be reduced. After switching on, the device takes 30 seconds to
warm up the tubes of the amplifier circuit. During this time, the LED “WARM
UP” (1) flashes and the message “WAITING” appears on the display. In swit-
ched-on mode, the LED “WARM UP” is permanently lit.
Select the frequency
band AM/FM
(8)(20)
This button is found on both the remote control and the front of the appli-
ance. This allows you to switch between the FM (VHF) and AM (MW)
modes when the radio is on. VHF offers better sound quality and a greater
selection of stations. The display shows you the abbreviation “AM” or
“FM”, depending on the frequency band setting you have chosen.
Switch between
stereo/mono ST/MONO
(6)(24)
This button is found on both the remote control and the front of the appliance.
If a station can only be received with poor quality in stereo, there is an option
of listening to it in mono mode. This can improve the sound quality. Switching
between these two is only possible for FM stations. Whilst this setting is active,
the display shows “MONO” in small letters.

Use the “TUNING MODE” button on the front of the appliance or on the
remote control to select from the three possible settings (function of the
Tuning/Preset buttons) the option „MANUAL“. As long as this mode is selec-
ted you can change the radio frequency up or down in steps of 0.05 MHz
for FM and 9 kHz for AM, using the buttons “TUNING PRESET”. If you
have found a station with a strong enough signal, this is signalled by the
abbreviation „TUN“ in the display. If „ST“ is displayed, the station can be
played back in stereo. If „RDS“ is displayed, the station offers RDS services.
As long as the manual scan mode is selected, the text “AUTO” does not
appear in the display.

UP/DOWN
(10)(25)
Use the “TUNING MODE” button on the front of the appliance or on the
remote control to select from the three possible settings (function of the but-
tons “TUNING PRESET”) the option „AUTOSCAN“. As long as this mode is
selected the display shows the text „AUTO“. Now the buttons „TUNING
PRESET“ make the tuner step through all frequency settings automatically if
touched once. The automatic search stops when the tuner has found a fre-
quency at which a radio station can be received. If the tuner has found a
station with a strong enough signal, this is signalled by the abbreviation
“TUN” in the display. If “ST” is displayed, the station can be played back in
Stereo. If „RDS” is displayed, the station offers RDS services. The scan pro-
cess can be stopped by one more actuation of “UP” or “DOWN”.
