Using the DAB radio
Wire antenna
Please make sure that the antenna is fully extended before you attempt to tune into a DAB station. This
will ensure that the maximum signal strength is available when the radio begins to scan. Extending the
wire antenna also ensures the best possible sound quality.
DAB Radio mode
Check that your radio is in DAB mode. If you are not already in DAB mode, press and release the
'STANDBY/MODE' button to go into DAB mode (check the display).
The first time you use the radio or if the station list is empty, your radio will automatically begin to scan
for DAB radio stations.
If you were listening to a DAB station when you switched the radio off then this station will be
automatically selected when you switch the radio back on.
Changing DAB stations
In DAB mode:
1) Press the TUNING+/TUNING- button on the top of the radio to scroll through the available stations.
2) When the station that you would like to listen to is displayed press the SELECT button to confirm.
There will be a short delay whilst your radio tunes into your selected station.
Scanning for DAB stations
With DAB radio, additional stations and services regularly become available so it's a good idea to carry
out a manual scan every now and then to make sure that you have the most up to date station listing
stored within the memory of your radio. If you have moved your radio to another location, e.g. if you go
on holiday, then it's also a good idea to carry out a manual scan.
If you are not already in DAB mode, press and release the 'STANDBY/MODE' button to go into DAB mode.
1) Press and hold the MENU/INFO button until the display changes to <Scan>.
2) Press the SELECT button to begin a search for stations.
Prune DAB stations
You can remove the DAB stations in the station list that cannot be received in your area. These are
listed with a '?' prefix.
1) Press and hold the 'Menu/Info' button until the display changes to <Scan> and use the TUNING+
or TUNING- button to scroll to 'Prune'. Press the SELECT button to select.
2) 'Prune <N> Y' is displayed. Use the TUNING+ or TUNING- button to scroll to 'Y'. Press the SELECT
button to select and prune the station list. Stations with a '?' prefix will now no longer be displayed.
Storing a preset DAB station
Your radio can store up to 20 DAB stations in its preset memories for instant access to your favourite
stations.
Note: When you store preset DAB radio stations, these do not overwrite your preset FM stations.
1) Tune your radio to the station that you wish to preset.
2) Press and hold the PRESET button on the top of your radio.
3) Then press the TUNING+/TUNING- button to scroll to the preset location where you would like to
store the radio station (1-20).
4) Press the SELECT button to select and the display will confirm 'STORED'.
Note: If there is already an existing preset DAB station, it will be overwritten when you store the new
station.
Tune in to a preset DAB station
In DAB mode
1) Press the PRESET button.
2) Use the TUNING+/TUNING- button to scroll to the Preset location and station that you would like to
listen to (1-20). Press and release the SELECT button to select. The radio will tune to that station
and begin to play.
Note: If no DAB station has been stored under the preset button, 'Empty' will be displayed and the radio
will revert to the previously selected radio station.
