The additional functions of this unit in DAB mode are as follows.
TUNING FOR THE FIRST TIME
When you switch on your unit for the first time an auto-scanning process will be performed
automatically. A progress indicator on the display shows that auto-tuning is underway.
If stations are found during the auto-scanning
The stations will be stored in alphanumeric order and the first station on the list will be
selected and it will be heard.
If no stations are found during the auto-scanning
"No station available" will be shown on the display for a few seconds and then a menu of
options will be seen.
Use the Up and Down buttons to scroll through the options and press Select to choose
that option.
ADJUSTING THE VOLUME
Once the Radio is tuned the volume can be adjusted using the volume control.
CHANNEL
Displays the channel identifier and frequency for the station to which you are tuning in.
MODE
Displays the mode of the current service, Stereo or Mono and the data rate at which the
audio signal is being transmitted. This rate is set by the broadcaster to suit the type and
quality of material being transmitted.
SIGNAL ERROR RATE
Displays the signal error rate for the signal to which you are tuned. As a guide values from
0 to 15 indicate good reception, 16 to 30 borderline reception and 31 or more poor
reception. This error rate can be improved by adjusting the aerial position using the Tuning
aid option .
