Tuning into FM stations

To tune into FM radio stations, follow these steps:
1.
Turn on the radio using the Power button.
2.
Select the FM radio mode using the Mode button and
Tuning knop or using the radio's Main menu.
3.
Rotate the Tuning knob clockwise or anti-clockwise
and then press the Tuning knop to automatically tune
into an FM station with a higher or lower frequency
respectively. (Alternatively, press and hold the Tuning
up or Tuning down button on the remote control for
2 seconds then release.) Your radio will stop scanning
when it finds a station of sufficient strength. The display
will show the frequency of the signal which has been
found and at the bottom of the display a signal strength
icon will be shown to indicate the strength of the signal
received. If RDS information is available, the RDS icon
will also be shown at the bottom of the radio's display
and after a few seconds the display will show the radio
station name.
4.
Rotate the Tuning knob (alternatively, press the
Tuning up or Tuning down button on the remote
control) to fine-tune the frequency with steps of 0.05
MHz if needed.
5.
Repeat the steps 3 and 4 to tune into other radio
stations.
Note: Before selecting the FM radio mode and tuning into
stations, make sure the DAB / FM antenna at the back
of the radio is fully extended and the radio's reception is
good.

The FM radio menu

You can open the FM radio menu by pressing the Menu
button while the radio is in the FM radio mode.
Use the Tuning knop to scroll through the options in the
menu. Press the Tuning knop to confirm the setting.
The FM radio menu offers the following options:
● [Scan setting]: Select this option to configure if the
radio should only look for strong signals or all signals
when using the automatic tuning feature.
● [Audio setting]: Select this option to configure if the
radio should only play FM stations in mono. Forcing the
radio to play FM broadcasts in mono can help reduce
noise when listening to FM broadcasts.
● [System settings]: Select this option to go to the
System settings menu and configure the radio (refer to
chapter 13 "Using the System settings menu" for details).
● [Main menu]: Select this option to go back to the
Main menu, where you can switch to any of the radio's
modes or set the radio's other functions, or go to the
System settings menu (refer to chapter 14 "Using the
Main menu" for details).

Showing FM information on the display

When listening to a FM radio station that is also
broadcasting RDS data (the RDS icon is shown on the
radio's display), press and release the Info button to cycle
through the following information on the radio's display:
● Text message
● Program type
● Frequency
● Today's date
If no RDS information is available, the radio will be unable
to display the text message and program type. If the
stereo speaker icon is shown at the bottom of the radio's
display, this indicates that the radio is receiving a stereo
broadcast.

Presetting stations in DAB and FM modes

Your WFT-4 can store up to 5 DAB or FM radio stations
as presets. (There are 10 presets on the remote control.)
They are used in the same way for each operating mode.

Turn on the radio, then select the DAB or FM radio
mode and Tune to the required radio station as
previously described.
2.
Press and hold one of the radio's Preset buttons (1-
5) until the display shows "Preset stored" to store
the station under the corresponding Preset number.
If another station has already been stored under the
chosen preset number, that station will be overwritten.
3.
Alternatively, to store the currently playing radio station
as a preset, press and hold the required Preset button
(1-10) on the remote control until the display shows
"Preset stored". The station will be stored under the
chosen preset button. Repeat this procedure as needed
for the remaining presets.
