Configuring the listening settings
Solo Mini allows you to adjust listening settings to suit 
your taste, and to customise various system features. 
Use the adjacent diagram to navigate through the items 
available.
With the unit switched on (blue light showing), press 
MENU on the remote control. Now use the 
C
 and 
B
 
keys on the remote to move down and up the settings 
available. The 
F
 and 
G
 keys on the remote are used to 
adjust particular settings.
To leave the menu at any time, press 
MENU again.
Balance
Balance allows you to increase the volume of one 
channel (left or right) relative to the other. Altering the 
balance may help to restore the stereo image for an off-
centre listening position.
Bass
This setting increases or decreases the lower frequency 
components of your music. 
Treble
This setting changes the relative volume of the higher 
frequency components of your music.
Sleep Timer
This timer allows you to specify a listening period, after 
which the volume fades into the (silent) clock mode. (See 
page 17)
CD AutoPlay
(Applies only if source is 
CD.)
This setting  controls the handling of a CD inserted into 
the front slot. If enabled, the CD plays immediately; if 
disabled, the CD waits for a command from the remote 
or top panel.
Prog
(Applies only if source is 
CD and a CD is loaded.)
This feature allows you to programme the playing 
order of CD tracks. Scroll left or right to highlight any 
of the available tracks and press 
OK to transfer it to the 
playback sequence. 
FM Mode
(Applies only if source is 
FM.)
In some weak signal areas, switching the FM tuner to 
‘Mono’ can be of benefit, as mono requires a much lower 
signal strength to produce acceptable results. If the signal 
strength in your area is good, leave FM Mode in ‘Stereo’.
DAB Setup
(Applies only if source is 
DAB.)
Selecting ‘Scan’ (confirm with 
OK) causes Solo Mini to 
search for new DAB stations. Found stations are added 
automatically to the list of available stations.
Scanning for new stations does not erase stations that 
are no longer transmitted – over time, or if you change 
location, this may lead to you having stations in your list 
that cannot be received. In this case, select ‘Erase settings’ 
(confirm with 
OK), then perform a new scan. When the 
scan is complete, only stations that are currently available 
in your area are shown.
Store/Erase Preset
This allows you to store a radio station that you have 
tuned in to as a numbered preset (confirm with 
OK). 
The station can then be retrieved by pressing the preset 
number on the remote.
In the same way, you can erase a particular numbered 
preset (confirm with 
OK).
iPod Option
(Applies to TAPE input with rLead connected)
This allows you to Enable or Disable control of an iPod 
when connected via an Arcam rLead (for rDock, this 
feature is automatic).
