To receive digital radio stations, the antenna must be extended to its full length.
Initial operation
When the mini-stereo is switched on for the first time, it automatically switches to DAB mode and starts
an automatic search for available stations. A progress bar indicates the progress of the search.
• At the end of the search, the first station found in alphanumeric order is broadcast.
• To select another station, briefly press the or buttons on the remote control. Then
press or wait for 3 seconds to confirm. The selected station is broadcast.
• If no station is received, NO DAB appears on the screen. This means that no reception, or only very
weak reception, is available.
Navigating the menus

Select the menu of your choice by pressing the or buttons, then press the button
to confirm. The menus available are:
• recherche complete (full search): searches all available DAB radio stations.
• reglage manuel (manual setting): manually set a specific channel/frequency and add it to the list of
stations already stored.
• DRC: Some stations in the DAB network support a volume control that is active during playback. If
the volume suddenly increases, the DRC automatically lowers it. If the volume suddenly drops, the
DRC automatically increases it. The same procedure is applied when the volume suddenly drops: the
mini-stereo will increase the volume again.
