GETTING STARTED

DAB/FM AERIAL

Before using your radio for DAB or FM reception, unwrap and fully extend the aerial wire. You may need to adjust the position of the aerial wire for maximum signal strength.

CONNECTING POWER

Before connecting the power, check that the mains voltage on the rating plate of the AC adaptor is the same as the voltage in your area.

•Plug the DC cord from the AC adaptor into the DC jack on the back of the unit.
•Plug the AC adaptor into the wall socket and switch the mains power on.
The unit is now ready for use.
NOTE:- The AC adaptor may become warm during operation - this is normal.

When first connected to the power, the clock and calendar display will show ‘zeros’.
