1 System Power Control: Press this button to turn on the C445

Tuner; press it again to turn the unit standby. Note that the Power
Indicator next to the switch will turn green when the unit is on.

2 Power Indicator: This LED will illuminate in amber when the unit is

in the Standby mode to signal that the unit is ready to be turned on.
When the unit is in operation, the indicator will be green.

3 Band Selector: Press this button to change between the DAB, FM

and AM frequency bands.

4 Menu/FM Mute Selector: In DAB mode, pressing this button will

activate Dynamic Range Control, preset tune, manual tune features
or station order. In FM mode, press this button to select the stereo
or mono mode for FM tuning. In the stereo mode, the word STEREO
will be shown in the Information Display, and stereo reception will
be provided when stations are transmitting stereo signals. In the
mono mode, the left and right signals from stereo broadcasts will be
mixed together and reproduced through all channels. Select MONO
for better reception of weak signals.

5 Auto tune Button: In DAB mode, press this button to automatically

scan all available local stations. To scan for all available stations, keep
the button pressed for three seconds, until AUTO SCAN FULL is
shown in the Information Display.

6 Memory Button: Press this button to open the memory position

that stores a preset location in the tuner. 99 DAB presets can be
stored, as well as 30 FM and 30 AM presets. (See page 12 for more
information on tuner presets.)

7 Dimmer Button: Press this button to dim the front panel display.

The first press of the button will dim the displays to one-half normal
brightness; the next press will turn back to normal brightness. The
display will return to normal brightness the next time the unit is
turned on.

8 Info Button: In DAB mode, pressing this button will change the

content of the lower display line of the Information Display such as
time and date, channel number, signal error rate, and software
version. In RDS mode, it will change between the different RDS
options.

9 Information Display: This dual line display delivers messages and

status indications to help you operate the tuner.

10 Control Ring: Turn counter-clockwise to tune lower frequency

stations and clockwise to tune higher frequency stations. When a
station with a strong signal is tuned, the Information Display will
read TUNED. Turn again to tune to the next frequency increment in
Manual tune Mode, or automatically to the next station with a signal
strong enough for acceptable reception in Auto tune Mode. The ring
also controls the parameters in the different menus.

11 ENTER: In FM or AM mode, press this button to select Auto tune,

Manual tune or Preset tune. In DAB mode, press this button to select
the displayed station.
