Switching from Stereo to Mono
For switching from stereo to mono:
●Press the lo button 7 for more than two seconds.
For stereo reproduction, the stereo sign will light up on the display G f.
When switching the unit on, stereo sound reproduction is adjusted.
When the signal strength gets poor, the set will automatically switch to mono.
Loudness
In the FM mode, we generally recommend to make use of the RDS service.
As soon as a programme can be identified, the station logo and possibly the regional identification, e.g. the German NDR1 NDS (for Lower Saxony) appear on the display.
Withe RDS, the preset buttons become pro- gramme buttons. Now you know exactly which programme your set has currently tu- ned in, making it thus very easy to choose the desired station.
AF - Alternative Frequency
Selecting FM
●Briefly press the FM•T button F. ‘FM’lights up on the display Gb.
Selecting MW or LW
●Briefly press the M•L button D.
‘M’for MW or ‘L’for LW lights up on the display G b.
For changing between MW and LW:
●Press M•L D once again.
If nothing else is indicated, the following operating notes hold for all wavebands.
At low volumes, the human ear shows redu- ced sensitivity to low frequencies, while me- dium and high frequencies can be perceived better.
The loudness function compensates this phe- nomenon by boosting the low frequencies. For activating or deactivating it:
●Press the LD button 4.
If the loudness is on, ‘LD’is shown on the display G i.
You can individually programme at which level you want the set to start boosting the basses (see chapter ‘Programming’).
