ADJUSTING THE ANTENNA Adjusting the antenna As it applies to all other radios, the sound quality depends on the signal strength of the antenna inputs. The position of the radio in relation to the transmitter thus directly influences the quality of the signal received. For an optimal result it is therefore very important that you make sure that the radio receives the best possible antenna signal. The FM antenna must be adjusted for the best possible result.
OPERATION AND FUNCTIONS On, Off and standby 1 Turn on the unit by pressing the mains switch. 2 Press the standby button on the remote control to switch to standby mode. The display will turn off and all functions will be reduced to a minimum to make sure that the unit uses minimal power. When in standby mode the unit only reacts to the standby button of the remote control. 3 If you wish to turn off the unit to avoid any power consumption, you must press the mains switch.
OPERATION AND FUNCTIONS Tuning When the unit is turned on for the first time, all settings will be default settings. The settings can be changed according to your preference. When the unit is turned off the next time, these settings will naturally be saved as the new default settings. This also applies if you unplug the unit. TUNING When the unit has been turned on, channels must be saved. This is done by means of the autotune function.
OPERATION AND FUNCTIONS Selecting presets 1 Channels that have been saved can be selected either by means of the Preset + and Preset buttons on the remote control or on the front panel.
