Switching On and Off
To switch on the radio, press the On/Off button 3. The dis-
play 8 is activated and the audio source selected the last time
the radio was switched off will be played.

Each time after pressing a button, the display 8 is illuminated
for several seconds.
To switch off the radio, press the On/Off button 3 again. The
currently selected audio source will be stored.

the volume, press the "Vol –" button 5. The volume setting
"VL" is indicated with a value between 0 and 20 for a few sec-
onds in indicator e on the display.
Before adjusting or changing a radio station, set the volume to
a lower setting; before starting an external audio source, set
the volume to medium.
The sound can be switched off by pressing the "Mute" button

button 13 once more or either of the "Vol +" 6 or "Vol –" but-
tons 5.

An equalizer is integrated into the radio to ensure optimum
sound reproduction.
To manually change the bass level, press the "Equalizer" but-

the multi-function indicator e.
The bass and treble levels can be adjusted between –5 and
+5. To increase the indicated value, press the "Vol + " button
6; to lower the value, press the "Vol –" button 5. The
changed values are automatically stored when indicator e
changes back to the time indication a few seconds after last
pressing either of the buttons.

Setting the Rod Antenna
The radio is supplied with the rod antenna 7 mounted. When
listening to the radio, swing the rod antenna in the direction
that provides the best reception.
If it is not possible to achieve sufficient reception, place the
radio in a location with better reception.
Note: Operating the radio in the immediate vicinity of radio
units, wireless equipment or other electronic devices may im-
pair the radio reception.
Setting/Storing Radio Stations

ultra-short wave reception range or "AM" for the medium
wave reception range in display element f.
To set a certain radio frequency, press the

crease it. The current frequency is shown in indicator a on the
display.
To scan for radio stations with a high signal strength,
press and briefly hold the seek button 12 or the
button 11. The frequency of the found radio station is shown
in indicator a on the display.
If a suitable signal has a sufficiently strong reception, the ra-
dio automatically switches to stereo reception. The stereo in-
dicator c will appear on the display.
To store a set station, press one of the preset buttons 9 for
3 seconds. As soon as "PR" and the number of the selected
preset button appears in display element e, the station is
stored.
A total of 5 FM and 5 AM stations can be preset. Please note
that an already occupied preset is overwritten when a new ra-
dio station is assigned to it.

respective preset button 9. "PR" as well as the preset number
of the station are indicated in display element e for a few sec-
onds.
Connecting External Audio Sources
Apart from the integrated radio, various external audio sourc-
es can be played.
Remove the protective cap of the "AUX IN" socket 22. Insert
the angled 3.5 mm plug of the AUX cable 26 into the socket
(see illustration on the graphics page). Connect the second
plug of the AUX cable to an appropriate audio source.
For playback of the connected audio source, press the
"Source" button 14 until "AUX" appears in indicator f on the
display.
After removing the plug of the AUX cable, reattach the protec-
tive cap of the "AUX IN" socket 22 again to protect against
dirt/debris.

The radio has a time indication with separate power supply. If
back-up batteries with sufficient capacity are inserted into
the battery compartment (see "Inserting/Replacing the Back-
up Battery", page 12), the time can be stored even when the
radio is disconnected from the power supply via battery or
power-supply plug.
