6  DAB 

In the DAB mode you can listen to the new digital radio with crystal clear audio quality. To enter this 
mode please press the “Mode” button like described in chapter 5.2. 
 

6.1  Selecting a Station 

  Turn the “Tune/Select” wheel to scroll through the stations, by default the stations are listed in 

numerical and then alphabetical order. 

  In DAB mode, when the station that you would like to listen to is displayed, press the “Select” 

button, “Connecting……” and “Playing” will be displayed while your radio tunes to your selected 
station. 

 

6.2  Scanning for Stations 

With DAB radio, additional stations and services regularly become available so it’s a good idea to 
carry out a manual scan every now and then to make sure that you have the most up to date station 
listing stored within the memory of your radio. If you have moved your radio to another location, e.g. 
during your holidays, you should also do a scan for stations in your area.   

  Press the “Scan” button to begin a search for stations. The display will indicate “Scanning…” 

mode, and the number of stations found during the scan will then be displayed. This scan can 
take between 1 to 3 minutes. 

 

6.3  Storing a Station to a Preset   

Your radio can store up to 10 DAB stations and 10 FM stations in its preset memories for instant 
access to your favorite stations. 

  Tune your radio to the station that you wish to store. 

  Then hold the “Preset” button until the display shows “Preset Store”, you can turn “Tune/Select” 

to select the preset number in which you want to store the station. 

  Press “Tune/Select” to save the station, and the display shows “Preset X stored”, where “X” is 

the number of the preset (1-10). 

  Alternatively the user can store the station with the remote control. Just press and hold the 

number (1-10) of the preset on the remote control until the display shows “Preset X stored”. 

 

Note:

   

  If there is already an existing DAB or FM station stored in this preset, it will be overwritten when 

you store the new station 

  When you store DAB radio station presets, these do not overwrite your FM station presets. 

 

6.4  Recalling a Preset Station 

  Press the “Preset” button shortly. The display shows “Preset recall”, you can select between all 

presets by turning the “Tune/Select” button. 

  Press “Tune/Select” to choose the preset station which you want to listen to, the station will 

begin to play. 

  Alternatively press the “1-10” buttons on the Remote control, then the radio will instantly tune to 

that station and begin to play.   

Note:

   

If no station has been stored under the preset, the display will change to “Preset Empty” and then 
revert to the previously selected station after a few seconds.
