Preparing The Digitradio 216 For Operation; Connecting The Power Supply Unit; Improving Antenna Reception - TechniSat DIGITRADIO 216 Instruction Manual

5.3 Preparing the DIGITRADIO 216 for operation

5.3.1 Connecting the power supply unit

> To do this, insert the connector on the power supply unit provided into the power supply socket on
the back of the device and then connect the power supply unit to the mains supply.
Ensure that the operating voltage of the power supply unit matches the mains voltage before you
insert it into the wall socket.
When you connect to the mains for the first time, "TechniSat" appears on the display.
When the device is in use, remove the plug from the socket. Pull the plug and not on the cable.
Remove the plug before a storm starts. Remove the plug if the device is not going to be used for a
prolonged period, e.g. before going away on a long trip.
The heat generated during operation must be dissipated by means of sufficient air circulation.
Therefore the device must not be covered or installed in a closed cupboard. Ensure there is free
space of at least 10 cm around the device.

5.3.2 Improving antenna reception

The number and quality of the stations to be received depend on the reception conditions at the
installation location. Excellent reception can be achieved with the DAB/FM rod antenna.
> Align the telescopic antenna and extend it.
It is often important to ensure the exact alignment of the DAB antenna, in particular on the outskirts
of the DAB reception area. You can quickly find the location of the nearest transmission tower on the
Internet by visiting "www.dabplus.de".
