You can nd an appropriate selection of Hama products at www.hama.com.
Note
Only connect the product to a socket that has been approved for the device.
When using a mult-socket power strip, make sure that the sum power draw of all the connected devices does not exceed its maximum throughput rating.
The electrical socket must always be easily accessible.
If you will not be using the product for a long period
of time, disconnect it from mains power.
Notes on use
When a selection among menu items is to be made (such as Yes or No), the one currently selected is marked with < >.

Page 11
Proceed as follows, choosing a frequency range between 5A and 13F:
[menu]

6.3 Station list

You can access the station list in DAB mode at any time via two methods:
a) If a station is already playing, simply turn [enter/
navigate]. The radio will then display the station list.
b)
Manual tune
The bar indicates the current signal strength. The marking along the bar indicates the value required for interference­free reception. If this value is not reached (the bar is empty), then the signal strength is not sucient on this channel.
Note
DAB/ DAB+ permits the transmission of several stations within a single frequency block. When sorting by ensemble the stations are displayed according to how they are distributed across the frequency blocks.
[menu]

6.6 DRC (Dynamic Range Control)

Some radio stations in the DAB network support an audio level control that is activated at varying volumes during playback. If the audio level suddenly rises during playback, DRC automatically reduces the volume. The same happens if playback suddenly becomes quieter, with the radio then increasing the volume. This radio has three different settings for DRC:
DRC high: total equalisation of different volumes. Strong compression can audibly reduce the dynamics of a music title.
DRC low: partial equalisation of different volumes. More subtle compression, without too much loss of dynamics.
DRC off: no equalisation.
Proceed as follows to do the settings:
[menu]
DRC
Use [enter/navigate] to select one of your favourites.
Note
Favourites cannot be deleted. If all 30 station memory slots are  lled and you wish to save a new station, choose one of the occupied slots. The station in this slot will be overwritten with the new station.

7.3 Manual station search

When you make station settings manually, you can dene the desired frequency yourself and tune into stations that were ignored during automatic station search because their signals were too weak.
Tu rn [enter/navigate] (left: –0.05 MHz / right: +0.05 MHz) until you see the desired frequency. Wait a moment until playback of the received station signal begins.
