Product Set Up
Where to put your radio
It is important that you consider carefully in advance where
your radio will be situated and make sure that it is:
* on a at and stable surface
* within 1.5 metres of a power socket
* where you can fully extend the telescopic aerial
* away from bright sunlight or heat sources, such as a radiator
* not in a humid or very damp place such as a bathroom
Setting up
Step 1: Connect the mains power lead into the socket on
back of the radio and fully extend the aerial in a vertical
position to obtain the maximum signal strength.
Note: Only use the power supply provided. Using an
unauthorised power supply will invalidate your guarantee
and may damage your radio.
Step 2: Plug the power adaptor into the mains power wall
socket and switch on.
Step 3: When switching on for the rst time, slide the power
switch on the back of the radio, to ‘On’. ‘Welcome to Digital
Radio’ will be displayed and your radio will automatically
begin to scan for DAB+ radio stations. A progress bar will
show the progress of the scan and the number of stations
found during the scan will also be displayed.
When the scan is complete your radio will select the rst
available station and begin to play. Stations are listed in
numerical and then alphabetical order by default.
Note: The DAB+ radio station list is stored in the memory
and so the next time you switch your radio on, the station
search does not take place. It is possible to scan manually for
stations. Please see page 6.
Step 4: Inserting the batteries (optional). Before installing
the batteries (not included) please ensure that the DAB+
Radio is unplugged from the mains power supply.
On the back of the radio, push in the tab to remove the
battery compartment. Insert 4 x AA batteries, making sure
to note the ‘+’ and ‘-‘ markings and position the batteries the
correct way around. Replace the battery cover, making sure
it ‘clicks’ shut.
Page 4
If used continuously on battery power, your radio has an
approximate battery life of 10 hours when using good quality
batteries. When the battery power is low, ‘Battery Low’ will
appear in the display. Please switch o the radio and replace
the batteries.
Note: For battery operation, please switch o the mains
adaptor and remove the mains power plug from the back of
the radio.
Only use the recommended batteries or those of the same
•
equivalent type.
Do not mix old and new batteries or batteries of dierent
•
types.
Batteries are to be inserted with the correct polarity.
•
The supply terminals are not to be short-circuited.
•
Remove the batteries from the radio if they will not be
•
used for an extended period of time.
Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries.
•
Dispose of old batteries carefully.
•
CAUTION: Danger of explosion if batteries are incorrectly
•
replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type.
Where the mains power plug or an appliance coupler is
•
used as the disconnect device, the disconnect device shall
remain readily operable.
Using headphones
You can connect headphones (not included) to your
radio. The stereo headphone socket can be found on the
back of the radio and when you have headphones connected
the radio speakers are switched o and all sound is via the
headphones.
Note: Headphones will need a 3.5mm stereo plug.
Never throw batteries in a re or attempt to open the outer
•
casing.
Batteries are harmful if swallowed, so keep away from
•
young children.
Batteries must not be exposed to excessive heat such as
•
sunshine or re.

DAB+ display information
Multiplex Name - displays the broadcasting area and
collection of radio stations on this frequency e.g.:
BBC National DAB+, Digital 1 Network.
Channel and Frequency - e.g.: 12B 225.648 MHz
Signal error - This is displayed as a number between 0-99. It
would not be possible to satisfactorily listen to a ratio station
with a signal error rate of 30 or above. Try adjusting the aerial
or relocating your radio to improve reception.
Time and date - supplied by the broadcaster.
When listening to a DAB+ station you can change the
information that will appear on the second line of the
display. There are seven dierent types of information that
are sent by the broadcaster.
Dynamic Label Segment (DLS) - this is scrolling text
information supplied by the broadcaster. Information could
be the name of an artist or music title, DJ’s name, contact
details for the radio station etc.
Signal Strength - An empty will appear on the second line
of the display to indicate the minimum signal strength for
acceptable listening. The row of solid rectangles indicate the
actual signal strength that you are receiving. The stronger
the signal, the further to the right the row of solid rectangles
will be.

Dynamic range control (DRC)
1. Press the ‘Menu’ button.
In DAB+ mode:
The dynamic range for each radio programme is set by the
broadcaster for each radio station and may be dierent for
the types of programme broadcast, such as pop or classical
music or a chat show. The dynamic range control signal is
transmitted in parallel with the audio signal for each
programme and with your radio you can use this control
signal to expand or compress the dynamic range (the
dierence between the loudest and quietest sounds) of the
reproduced audio signal. Changing the dynamic range
can aect the ‘loudness’ and/or ‘quality of sound’ of the
programme that you hear so that it will be more suited to
your listening conditions and your own personal listening
requirements. e.g. in a noisy environment, where quiet
sounds might be swamped, setting the compression to
maximum will ‘boost’ the quiet sounds, whilst keeping the
loudest sounds at their original level.
There are 3 levels of compression:
DRC O - no compression. This is the default setting.
2. Use the or button to scroll to ‘DRC’ and press the ‘Enter’
button. The current DRC setting will have an ‘*’ next to it.
3. Use the or button to scroll through the 3 compression
level options available and press the ‘Enter’ button to select.
DRC Low - medium compression.
DRC High - maximum compression.

radio o then this station will be automatically selected when
you switch the radio back on.
Telescopic aerial
Please make sure that the aerial on the back of the radio is
