Operating your clock radio
1. Fully extend the wire aerial located on the rear of your clock radio.
Place the wire antenna so that it is as straight as possible extending
either above or below the radio.
2. Press the On / Standby button to switch on your clock radio.
When fi rst switched on, the clock radio will be in DAB mode. After each
use the clock radio will remember the mode used and then switch on
in that mode the next time that it is used.
3. If this is the fi rst time that the radio has been used a quick scan of
the Band III DAB channels may be carried out. (The scan is normally
performed automatically when the clock is fi rst set page 4). If the
radio has been used before, the last used station will be selected. If
new radio stations are found, they will be added to the stored list of
stations.
4. When the scan is completed the fi rst station (in numeric-alpha order
0....9, A....Z will be selected. The display will show the station name.
5. If no signals are found then it may be necessary to relocate your clock
radio to a position giving better reception. You should then carry out
a scan to fi nd stations as described on page 9.
• Your clock radio has a indicator
on the display to indicate the
strength of the DAB radio signal being received.
Note: When fi rst switched on, the clock radio will set the volume to a
moderately high level, in case the broadcast is very quiet. After you have
set the volume using the Volume Up or Down buttons, the radio will
remember the setting that you have applied for the next time that it is used.
