SELECTING TUNER
– The first time you select
TUNER
, it automatically switches to 'FM', and the
display indicates 87,50 MHz. STEREO
ɳ
is also selected.
– Your unit is provided with the function 'LAST STATION MEMORY', which
means that the station that was playing when the set was switched off will be
selected again when the tuner is switched back on.
SELECTING THE WAVE BAND
• To select the waveband, press
MODE
and within 3 seconds the
+
/
–
keys.
You can select the wavebands:
FM -STEREO
,
FM - MONO
and
MW
.
– The display shows the selected band.
– If you have selected
FM -STEREO
,
your unit is in stereo reception mode,
which means that as soon as a stereo
signal of sufficient strength is detected,
'
ɳ
' appears in the display. If stereo reception is disturbed, '
ɳ
' disappears.
In this way, disturbing background noise is suppressed.
• If noise-free stereo reception is not possible, you can switch your unit to
MONO reception. In this case, select
FM MONO
.
The muting function is always switched off for MONO reception, allowing the
unit to receive even very weak broadcast signals.
ADAPTING THE ANTENNA (ANTENNA/CABLE)
If you receive broadcasts via broad band cable of a public or private cable
service, there may be high signal inputs at your antenna terminal, which may in
turn cause reception disturbances.
• If this is the case, press the
MODE
key and within 3 seconds
3
or
4
to switch
on the input attenuator
CABLE
appears on the display. This reduces the antenna
input sensitivity, thus reducing disturbances. This setting is automatically stored.
RDS RADIO DATA SYSTEM
Your tuner is an RDS tuner.
RDS (Radio Data System) stands for a new generation of radios that provides the
listener/user with more comfort and better reception in the short term, but also
opens up completely new information options for the future. RDS-equipped
receivers identify the tuned station (if it transmits 'RDS signals') and indicate
the name of the programme in the display (e.g.
BAYERN 3
,
SDR 3
).
If you are tuned to an RDS station, the name of the station will be indicated after
a short time.
For more information, please see page 28.
AUTOMATIC STATION SEARCH
• To activate automatic station search (AUTO TUNING), press
Q
or
R
until the frequency display begins 'to run'; then release the key.
– The search stops as soon as a station with sufficient reception quality is
found and tuned to precisely.
The
indication lights up.
– Every time you begin a search, the unit
automatically switches to
FM - STEREO
.
– The frequency of the received station is
indicated in
kHz
(MW) or
MHz
(FM).
– If the search stops, the 'AUTO COMPARE' function first verifies whether the
station which has been found is already stored in the station memory. If this
is the case, the memory location of the station is displayed, as well as the
name of the station, if it already exists.
– Stations which are received with a weak field strength may be skipped.
These can be tuned to manually.
• If desired, you can also interrupt the search by pressing
Q
or
R
.
MANUAL STATION SEARCH (MANUAL TUNING)
• Briefly press the
Q
or
R
key to tune in the corresponding direction in
individual steps (FM: 25kHz; MW: 1 kHz).
• If you keep the key depressed, you can rapidly scan large frequency ranges.
When you release the key, AUTO TUNING is automatically switched to.
Muting is active during AUTO TUNING.
• If you briefly press one of the
Q
or
R
keys, manual tuning is
automatically switched to.
STATION MEMORY
59 memory locations are available for storing stations.
• Tune to the station you want to store with the station search function or
manually.
• Press
MEMORY
.
– The station is stored at the next available memory location.
– The tuner software first checks the station memory for available memory
locations. If all the locations are occupied,
MEM FULL
appears on the
display for approx. 1.5 seconds.
– Assigning a station frequency to two different memory locations is not
possible. The selected station is stored at the lowest available memory
location, meaning that you need not enter a number for memory locations.
– Every time the settings STEREO/MONO and ANTENNA/CABLE are changed,
they are automatically stored.
STORING STATIONS
• If you want to store a station, press
MEMORY
.
– The first station which is stored is assigned to memory location 1, the
second station to memory location 2 and so on.
• If you want to move a stored station to another memory location, press
MEMORY
.
– The station is always assigned to the first available memory location.
• Pressing the key again assigns a station to the next available memory
location.
Example:
You want to move your favourite station from memory location '6' to memory
location '1'.
• Select memory location '1'.
• Press
CANCEL
once.
– This deletes, or clears, memory location '1'.
You can also press
MEMORY
to move the station on location '1' to the next
available free memory location.
• Now select position '6', your favourite station, and then press
MEMORY
.
Your station is now stored on memory location '1'.
‘LAST STATION MEMORY’
LAST STATION MEMORY means that the unit 'remembers' the last station that
was tuned to. This function ensures that the station which was selected before
the tuner was switched off is automatically selected again when your tuner is
switched back on.
