4 Getting Started

4.1 Switching On for the First Time

• For best reception position the antenna above the GEO-1.

• Connect the power adapter provided to the GEO-1. Now plug into the mains

socket and switch mains on.

• The display will now say ‘Setting Clock’. Allow the device to perform this

function - this may take up to thirty seconds.

• The correct time, day, month and year will appear on the display

• Press the ON/OFF button to turn the device on.

• The GEO-1 will now search for available stations. Allow the device to perform

this function. This may take up to one minute (depending on number of
stations available locally).

• The GEO-1 will automatically tune into the first available station

• If required, reposition the antenna in order to achieve the best reception

quality.

• The optimum reception on any DAB product is normally achieved if the

product is positioned as close as possible to a window.


NB It is advisable to perform a ‘full scan’ to benefit from all the DAB channels

available in your area (see Full Scan below)

4.2 Auto Scan / Full Scan

Your GEO-1 will perform a fast auto scan the first time you switch it on as
detailed above – you can repeat this at any time by pressing the scan button.

But to ensure that you are receiving all of the channels available to you it is
advised that you perform a Full Scan. To perform a Full Scan:


• Press the MENU button

• Use the LEFT/RIGHT ARROW Keys to select ‘AUTOSCAN FULL’

• Press the SELECT key. The device will perform a Full Scan and

automatically tune into the first available station
