8 OPERATION
Operation
Basic Operation
The TU 980 is simple to operate, and very similar
to tuners you may have used in the past. This
section will explain the use of several features
that may be new to you.
• Install the two supplied AAA batteries in the
remote as shown. Be certain to observe the (+)
and (–) polarity indicators shown in the bottom
of the battery compartment.
• When using the TU 980 for the first time, it
will be placed in a standby mode, as indicated
by the amber color of the Power Indicator
.
Once the unit is in standby, you may begin a
listening session by pressing the System Power
Control
1
on the front panel or the Power
On button
0
on the remote control. Note
that the Power Indicator
will turn blue. To
turn the unit off at the end of a listening session
simply press the System Power Control
1
on the front panel or the Power Off
A
on the
remote. This places the unit in the Standby
mode, and the Power Indicator
will turn
amber to remind you that the unit is ready for
operation when a power command is received
from the remote.
When you will be away from home for an
extended period of time it is always a good idea
to completely turn the unit off by unplugging it
from the AC wall outlet. Note that the backup
system in the TU 980 will retain information
such as programmed presets for 14 days.
• To dim the brightness of the front panel
display, press the Dimmer button
7
on the
front panel. The first press will dim the lights to
half normal. A second press will turn the display
to normal brightness again.
DAB Operation
When you turn on the tuner, the tuner will
initialize. During 2 seconds, the display will show
the following messages:
After the initialization process, the tuner will
perform an automatic scan for available local
digital radio stations. This sequence can not be
interrupted. During the sequence, the following
message will be visible on the display.
The arrows show the progress of the sequence.
On the right top side, you will see how many
digital stations have been found.
If no digital stations can be found, the display
will show
NO STATIONS AVAILABLE
.
You can now select
MANUAL TUNE
by
pressing the Select Button
A
8
or turn the
Control Ring
9
to select
AUTOTUNE
to try
to manually find available stations.
If no stations can be found, please check that
the antenna is connected correctly and if your
area is covered by DAB.
Station List
Once the TU 980 has finished the scanning
sequence, it will display the available stations in
alphanumeric order. Turn the Control Ring
9
clockwise or counterclockwise to scroll through
the list of available stations. The upper display
line in the Information Display
6
will always
show the current station you are listening to. The
lower display line shows the next station in the
list. To select the next station, simply press the
Select Button on the front panel
A
or on the
remote control
8
.
The current station list will remain in the
memory of the TU 980. It can be updated by
running the Autotune function
5
4
as
described above, or deleted by resetting the
TU 980’s memory (see page 11).
NOTE: The station list can be shown in different
order. For more info, see page 9.
It can occur that one of the stations in your list is
temporarily not available. A “?” symbol will be
visible in front of the station name to indicate
such a station. If you select the station, the
Information Display
6
will show
STATION NOT AVAILABLE
, and will go
back to the current radio station.
