6.1 Source selection

>Press the MODE button as often as required until the desired source is shown on the display. You can choose between DAB, FM, AUX and CD modes.

7 DAB/DAB+

7.1 What is DAB+?

DAB+ is a new digital format through which crystal clear sound with no noise can be heard. In contrast to conventional analogue radio stations, DAB+ can be used to broadcast multiple stations on one and the same frequency. This is referred to as an ensemble or multiplex. An ensemble is comprised of the radio station, as well as several service components or data services, which are broadcast individually by the radio stations. There is information at www.digitalradio.de or www.digitalradio.ch, for example.

7.1.1 Data compression

With this, digital radio takes advantage of the properties of human hearing. The human ear does not perceive sounds which are found under a specific minimum volume. Data which are found under the so-called audibility threshold can, therefore, be filtered out. This is possible because, in a digital data stream, the relevant relative volume for other units is saved for every unit of information. Moreover, in an audio signal, the quieter parts are superimposed by louder ones at a specific limit value. All the sound information below the threshold of hearing in a piece of music can be

filtered out of the signal to be broadcast. This leads to a reduction of data in the data stream to be transmitted, with no perceptible difference in sound for the listener (HE AAC v2 process as a supplementary codification process for DAB+).

EN

FR

IT

NL NW DK PL CZ SK

19

7.1.2 Audio stream

With digital radio, audio streams are continuous data streams which contain the MPEG 1 audio layer 2 frames and thereby represent acoustic information. This enables standard radio channels to be broadcast and listened to on the receiver side. Digital radio provides you not only with excellent sound quality radio but also additional information. This may refer to the programme being broadcast or be independent information (e.g. news, weather, traffic, tips).

7.2 DAB+ (digital radio) reception

>Press the MODE button until [DAB] is shown on the display.

If DAB+ is being started for the first time, a complete scan will be performed. In order to perform a complete scan, open the menu by holding down the Info/Menu button and use the Tune +/ - and Enter buttons to select the menu item [Complete Scan].

7.2.1 Performing a complete scan

The automatic scan (Complete scan) scans all DAB+ band III channels and thereby finds all stations being broadcast within the reception area.

In order to perform a complete scan, open the menu by holding down the Info/Menu button and use the Tune +/ - and Enter buttons to select the menu item [Complete Scan].

>In order to perform a complete scan, open the menu by keeping the MENU button pressed and use the SCROLL&SELECT knob to select the menu item [DAB Menü]. Press the SCROLL&SELECT knob to open the submenu.

>Using the SCROLL&SELECT knob, select the [Complete scan] menu item and press it to launch the scan.

>[Scanning...] appears on the display.

Scanning...

During the scan a progress bar and the number of stations found is displayed.

If no stations are found, check the dipole antenna and change the installation location if required (Section 4.3.3).

20

7.2.2 Selecting stations

General information on CDs/MP3 CDs

The device is designed for music CDs that are played with audio data (CD-DA or MP3 for CD-R and CD-RW). MP3 formats must be created with ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2. Multi-session CDs cannot be read.

The device sorts the albums of an MP3 CD or the tracks of an album into alphabetical order by name. If you prefer a different order, change the name of the track or album and place a number in front of the name.

When burning a CD-R and CD-RW with audio data, various problems can arise which could occasionally compromise smooth playback. This is caused by faulty software and hardware settings or a blank disc being used. Should such errors arise, you should contact your CD burner/burner software manufacturer's customer service or search for the relevant information, e.g. on the Internet.

If you create audio CDs, observe the legal requirements and do not breach third-party copyrights.

The device can play CDs with MP3 or WMA data and normal audio CDs (CDDA).

Due to the range of different encoder software, it cannot be guaranteed that every MP3 file can be played without problems.

In the event of tracks/files being faulty, playback will continue with the next track/file.

When burning the CD, it is worth doing so at low speed, creating the CD as a single session and finalising it.

Insert the CD with the labelled side facing upwards until it is automatically pulled in by the device.
