Tuning/Channel Selection
When switching to the internal

TUNER
enters the last used tuner band, be it FM or DAB. Repeatedly
pressing
cycles through the available tuner bands on
your Receiver.
FM analogue radio
Frequency tuning on FM radio is performed using the <
and > buttons on the remote control in
device mode.
TUN
Individual presses move the frequency down and up one
step. If you press and hold either of the tuning buttons for
two seconds, the tuner scans to the next strong signal. You
can stop a scan at any time by pressing one of the tuning
buttons again.
In Europe, the internal FM radio is capable of receiving RDS
(Radio Data System) radiotext signals that are transmitted
on some stations. The RDS information typically includes
the radio station name, the music or speech genre as well
as additional information related to the current programme.
On music stations this is often information on the currently
playing track.
DAB digital radio
Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) radio is becoming more widely
available. See www.worlddab.org/country_information
for information on DAB availability.
You will need to scan for available stations before being able
to listen to them.
To scan for DAB stations, first select the DAB tuner then press
and hold O until the display indicates scanning has started.
The Receiver will then scan all the DAB radio frequencies and
compile a list of the stations that are available.
When the scan is complete, you can scroll through the
station list using the < and > buttons on the remote
control. To listen to the currently displayed station press the
O. If you do not press O within two seconds, the display
will revert to displaying the currently playing station.
Saving and selecting Presets
Preset selection uses the ' and , keys on the remote
to browse and O to select the preset when the remote is
in
device mode.
TUN
Up to 50 presets can be stored and these can be from any
band, for example Preset 1 could be an FM station, preset
two a DAB station, etc. Pressing the
key causes the next
available preset number to be displayed, then pressing the
key again stores the current frequency/channel in that
preset. If a different preset number is required, press the '
and , keys until the desired number is displayed before
pressing the
key for a second time.
Deleting Presets
When in tuner browse mode (using ' and , to scroll
through the presets), the yellow button on the remote is
used to delete the currently highlighted (but not playing)
station or frequency.
