ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
Mains Supply: The mains operating voltage of this unit is on the rating plate on the rear. In the UK this is 230/240 V.
The appliance cord is terminated with a UK approved mains plug
fitted with a 3A fuse. If the fuse needs to be replaced, an ASTA or BSI
approved BS1362 fuse rated at 3A must be used. If you need to
change the mains plug, remove the fuse and dispose of this plug safely immediately after cutting it from the cord.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the code: Blue: NEUTRAL; Brown: LIVE:
As these colours may not correspond to the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The BLUE wire must be |

DISPLAY MODES
There are many different information settings available on the radio. Some stations have a lot of extra information available, some very little.
$Pressing the INFO button will cycle you through these settings:
DAB MODE
Signal strength
DLS(Scrolling text)
Programme Type
Multiplex(Group name)
Time/Date
Bit Rate
SIGNAL STRENGTH: This is a bar to indicate the signal strength. The stronger the signal, the longer the bar will be from left to right.
Tip: Adjusting the aerial to maximise the length of the bar will greatly improve the quality of your reception.
DLS (Dynamic Label Segment): This is a scrolling message giving realtime information - song titles, news headlines, etc.
PROGRAMME TYPE: This describes the style of the programme being broadcast. If the not available, the display will show <Programme Type>
MULTIPLEX (GROUP NAME)
A multiplex is a collection of radio stations bundled and transmitted together in a single frequency. There are national and local multiplexes; local ones contain stations specific to your area.
TIME AND DATE: Time and date are updated by the broadcasted
information. If no clock information is received, the display shows
<Time/Date>
BIT RATE: DAB allows broadcasters to vary the BIT RATE (or the amount by which an audio signal can be compressed) depending on the type of broadcast. This enables the amount of stations on a multiplex to be maximised. Speech and News are often broadcast at a lower Bit Rate; music needs a higher Bit Rate for good sound fidelity.
ADDITIONAL SERVICES
On some occasions you will see a ">" symbol after the name of the station. This indicates that there are secondary services available. These secondary services contain extra services that relate to the primary station.
