with each of the steps before starting work. This will help ensure that the

 

installation proceeds smoothly and without error. You should also read the

 

cautions on page 40 of this booklet.

 

1.Determine the desired location for the radio. This must be away from sources of heat, steam and naked fl ames (away from kettles, toasters, cooker hobs, and the like).

2.Check that DAB and FM reception is possible at the desired location.

3.Adjust the aerial for optimal DAB and FM reception. For optimum reception the aerial may need to run vertically rather than horizontally. Try to avoid running the aerial near wiring, water pipes, or other metal structures. You may need to experiment to determine the best position for the aerial. Use adhesive tape as a temporary fi xing for the aerial, since holding it may affect reception.

4.Check that the aerial and mains lead can be safely routed and secured before fi tting the radio.

5.Loosen the thumb screws on the sides of radio to free the mounting bracket. Lift the mounting bracket and tighten the thumb screws.

6.Offer the radio to the desired location to determine the precise location of the mounting bracket against the underside of cupboard.

7.Using a soft pencil, mark the underside of the cupboard with the location of the mounting bracket.
