Using the touch panel

The DDR-62 has a stylish touch panel instead of conventional buttons.

To operate the buttons simply touch the button area with the tip of a
finger for about half a second. The clock set and system menu functions
marked with a dot (●) are accessed by means of a long touch (2-3
seconds) on the appropriate button until the display on the radio shows
that the command has been accepted.

You may find at first that the radio does not always detect that you have
touched a button. If so, try touching with a little more pressure, or for
slightly longer. You will soon find the optimum touch needed to control
your radio. The panel may be cleaned using a dry cloth. Do not use
abrasives, cleaning fluids or solvents.

Remote control functions

Most of the functions of the DDR-62 radio can be controlled using
either the touch panel or the remote control. However, there are a few
functions which are only accessible using the remote control.
These are:
Radio station presets
CD track access by numbers
Audio mute
DAB/FM auto-tune
CD/iPod random function

As with the front panel, some operations require a longer operation of
the button (explained in the relevant sections). In this case simply keep
your finger held on the remote controlbutton for 2-3 seconds until the
display on the radio shows that the command has been accepted.

Network remote control options

Network Pin setup (Pin number)

Your radio has the option of being controlled by an application installed
on an Apple iPhone/ iPod touch/ iPod or Android smartphones/tablet.
The Pin number facility allows you to ensure that your radio can only be
controlled by your own device rather than someone else’s.

Details of how this feature can be used with your Apple and Android
device are explained in the separate sheet available from the Sangean
website. The remote control application is called iSangean ( ) and is
available on the Apple App Store and Google Play.

Keep network connected

By default, your radio will shut down its WiFi connection when it is in
standby. This minimizes power consumption but it does mean that you
will need to switch that radio on manually in order to use the remote
control software.

If you need to be able to remotely control the radio even when it has
been put into standby, make sure you choose to keep the network
connected by setting "YES" in the ‘Keep network connected’ option in
the network setting menu. In the standby mode display either the WiFi
signal indicator is shown with or without a cross through it according to
the chosen network settings.
