Hints and Tips

I don’t see any Intellitext

This could be because you haven’t tuned to a participating station or the station hasn’t broadcast

any Intellitext since you tuned in. Try tuning to a participating station, wait and then check again.

(>>/<<) DAB Secondary services

Secondary services accompany some stations, providing extra information or alternative content

and may only be broadcast at certain times. If a station has secondary services available, the

station shows ‘>>’ next to its name in the station list and the secondary service appears next to

the station in the list. A secondary service has a ‘<<’ before its name in the station list.

(?) Inactive or unavailable DAB stations

Inactive or unavailable stations are those which appear on the station list but are not currently

available. Inactive stations have a ‘?’ before their name on the station list. If you select a station

which has this symbol, your radio tries to tune in or returns to the previous station.

Display says ‘No stations available’

Try adjusting your aerial or radio position. Use Autotune to search for stations.

Alarm bell icon has a cross through it

This happens if you set an alarm but no DAB or FM RDS time has been acquired yet. Check that

your aerial is extended, return to DAB/FM or standby and wait for a short period.

Resetting your radio

Resetting your DMX-50 removes all presets, stored stations and favourite stations, Intellitext and

alarm/timer settings and resets all options to defaults. To reset:

1. Press and hold the MENU button for three seconds. The screen shows ‘Do you want to reset?’.

2. Confirm the reset or press no buttons to cancel the reset.
