Using the radio for the first time
1.Place your radio on a fl at surface.
2.Fully extend the telescopic aerial. The aerial should be fully extended and positioned vertically for optimum reception.
3.Plug the cable from the mains adaptor into the DC input socket on the rear of your radio (marked 'DC In') ensuring that the plug is pushed fully into the socket. Plug the mains adaptor into a wall socket and switch on the socket. The display will show "ROBERTS RADIO" for a few seconds and then the display will then show "SET CLOCK". During this time the radio is scanning to fi nd out which DAB radio stations are available. When stations have been found the current time and date will appear on the display.
Note that the display will not show any scanning message for this fi rst scan.
4.If no stations are found the display will show the default time and date. It may be necessary to relocate your radio to a position giving better reception. You should then carry out a scan to fi nd stations as described on page 12.
IMPORTANT: The mains adaptor is used as the means of connecting the radio to the mains supply. The mains socket used for the radio must remain accessible during normal use. In order to disconnect the radio from the mains, the mains adaptor should be removed from the mains socket outlet completely.
