Player/Radio Menu
The RADIO Menu shows the selected Audio mode, the name of a station currently played (as long as RDS is available) and a Station list listing the 30 stations with their preset, station name and frequency.
Note: The stations can be preset auto- matically or manually. The Manual Preset mode is described first. The Auto Preset mode is described later in this manual.
3.The RDS and AUTO Tune functions are switched on by default, shown by the dark blue icons, to make the process of tuning your favorite stations as easy as possible. Move the cursor to the end of the first station line in the menu. The frequency will be highlighted and a brief explanation will appear in the Upper Menu Line on the bottom of the menu.
NOTE: Both RDS and AUTO Tune functions can be switched off by moving the cursor button to the icon at the left side of the menu and press- ing the Enter Button on the remote control so that it turns light blue.
4.Pressing the search G / H button HJ will scan the FM band for the first available radio station with acceptable reception. The scan will stop once a station is found and the name of the station will be displayed (as long as RDS is transmitted by the station).
The station will be stored automatically on the current preset.
If you know the frequency of your station, you can also tune the frequency directly with the help of the numeric keys of the remote control. Move the cursor to the end of the station line and press the frequency with the numeric keys. Press Enter 6 twice to store.
5.Move the cursor to the next station line in the menu. Follow the directions in step 3 and in the Upper Menu Line to store all your radio stations in the tuner’s memory.
Rearranging the station list
Once all the stations have been stored in the memory, you can rearrange the station list, putting your favorite stations on top of the list.
1.Move the cursor in the left column in the station list to the first station you would like to rearrange.
2.Press Enter 6 to activate the current sta- tion. The cursor will move to the Lower Menu Line of the screen.
3.Select the desired preset from the list by moving the cursor right or left. Press Enter 6 to activate the change. The cursor will move back to the new station line.
4.Repeat step 3 until all radio stations have been rearranged according to your preferences.
Selecting presets
Once rearranged, presets can be chosen at any time by pressing the numeric key corresponding to the preset you would like to listen to.
Depending on whether the RDS function is active, the station name will show on the front panel Information Display.
Pressing the Previous/Next I / J Button EF will select the next radio station.
Presets can also be chosen in the Radio Menu. Move the cursor to the preset you would like to listen to and press Enter 6 to activate. An arrow in front of the preset will light to show the active radio station. The cursor can be moved around the menu without changing the current radio station. Pressing the Previous/Next I /
JButton EF at any position in the menu will select the next radio station, that is for instance from preset 3 to preset 4, even if the cursor is highlighting preset 11. Pressing the Play button will always return the cursor to the current station played, no matter were it was previously (even when another menu is open).
Removing presets
If you wish to remove presets from your preset list, follow the steps below.
1.Move the cursor in the left column in the station list to the preset you would like to remove.
2.Press Enter 6 to activate the current sta- tion. The cursor will move to the Lower Menu Line of the screen.
3.Select Remove from the list and press Enter 6. The cursor will move back to the original station line.
4.Repeat step 3 until all radio stations you would like to delete have been removed.
Auto Preset function
When the cursor is moved to the " # " icon on top of the preset numbers you can activate the Auto Preset function, clear the complete frequency list or restore all default frequencies set by the factory.
When the Auto Preset is selected the tuner will scan the full FM range and store all stations with acceptable reception one after another on the presets. The frequency scanned will appear on the left lower side of the menu while the fre- quency of each station stored will be shown on the right side of the list. When the complete FM range is scanned or all presets (30) are loaded with stations the scan will stop and the first preset be selected.
You also can stop the scan at any time by press- ing the STOP button I. Stations can be rearranged by following the explanations in the chapter "Rearranging the station list" on page 23.
RDS Station ID
With the help of RDS (Radio Data System) you can show the name of the station you are currently listening to as well as the station names of all other presets.
The RDS function is set to active by default, shown by the dark blue RDS icon at the left of the menu. In this mode, all station names will be visible both on the OSD menu as well as on the Information Display on the front panel.
If the RDS function on the left side of the menu is inactive (light blue), you will only see the frequen- cy of the current preset shown in the menu and on the front panel display. The Station Name line on top of the menu will disappear, but the name of all other stations preset will keep in the list.
Pressing STATUS D on the remote will change the front panels display’s indication from the frequency to the name of an RDS station or vice versa and will simultaneously turn the RDS indication in the OSD on or off.
Surround Mode for Tuner
As with all other inputs of the HS 250, you can also select your preferred surround mode when lis- tening to the radio. The actual surround mode is listed on the first line of the tuner menu. Follow the steps below to change the surround format:
1.Move the cursor to the AUDIO line on the top of the tuner menu. The actual surround format will be highlighted. Press Enter 6 to acti- vate the possible surround formats. These will be shown in the bottom line of the menu.
2.Move the cursor right or left, until the desired surround format is highlighted.
3.Press Enter 6 to activate the change. The setting will apply to all tuner presets.
Note: Like with all other inputs of the HS 250 the Audio mode can easily be selected by pressing the AUDIO button 5 on the remote repeatedly until the desired surround mode appears in the first line of the OSD menu.
