Selecting the RDS
radio as the input
source IIN NPPU UTT ((2 2))
TTU UN NE ER R ((1 18 8))
To activate radio mode you can either press the “TUNER” button on the
remote control or select this input on the front panel of the appliance with the
“INPUT” knob.
Selecting the
frequency band A AM M/ /FFM M
((6 6)) ((2 24 4))
This button is found on both the remote control and the front of the appliance.
This allows you to switch between the FM (VHF) and AM (MW) modes when
the radio is on. VHF offers better sound quality and a greater selection of
stations.
Switching between
stereo/mono S STT/ /M MO ON NO O
((6 6)) ((2 25 5))
This button is found on both the remote control and the front of the appliance.
If a station can only be received with poor quality in stereo, there is an option
of listening to it in mono mode. This can improve the sound quality.
Switching between these two is only possible for the radio. Whilst this setting
is active, the display shows “MONO” in small letters.

When the radio is on, use the “TUNING MODE” button on the front of the
appliance or on the remote control to select one of the two following options
from the three possible settings (function of the Tuning/Preset buttons):
• MANUAL The display briefly shows “MANUAL”. If this mode is
selected you can change the radio frequency up or down with the
“ TUNING PRESET ” buttons on the front of the appliance or
“ TUN/PRE ” on the remote control step by step (in steps
of 0.05 MHz for FM and 9 kHz for AM).
• AUTOSCAN The text “AUTOSCAN” can be seen briefly on the display.
In this mode the selected frequency band is automatically searched up or
down (automatic frequency search) when “ TUN/PRE ” is pressed, and the
tuner stops at the next frequency with sufficiently strong reception.

To input a known station frequency directly, you can proceed as follows
(the keys are found both on the appliance and the remote control):
Press the “DIRECT” button. The receiver waits for an entry using the
numerical keys in the next few seconds. In FM mode, 5 numbers need to
be entered, two of which come after the decimal point of the frequency
in MHz. If an invalid frequency is entered, the appliance corrects this to
the nearest valid frequency.

You are able to store up to 30 radio frequencies for each of the frequency
bands (FM, AM) and select them using their positions in the memory.
If stations have already been stored, one of them can now be selected by
entering the position in the memory with the numerical keys. To search through
all the stations stored, the “TUNING MODE” button on the front of the appli-
ance or on the remote control can be used to select the third of the three
possible settings
• PRESET (search through all stations stored). “PRESET” can be seen briefly
on the display. Using the “ TUNING PRESET ” buttons on the front of the
appliance or the “ TUN/PRE ” buttons on the remote control, it is now
possible to go through all the positions already stored.

On the appliance: By turning the “INPUT” knob.
On the remote control: Briefly pressing the button for the required input
channel, e.g. “CD” or “AUX”, changes to playback of the appliance
connected there.
The name of the input channel appears on the display.
Before switching over the input channel, the volume should be turned down
as a precaution!
Volume mute M MU UTTE E ((2 28 8))
Mute can only be operated with the remote control. It switches off the loud-
speakers, the headphones and the “PRE” (15) preamp output. Pressing it
again restores the volume to its original setting.
Controlling the treble
and bass
TTR RE EB BLLE E ((7 7))
B BA AS SS S ((8 8))
The sound control can only be operated on the front of the appliance.
The “TREBLE” knob is used to influence the high-pitched sounds, the “BASS”
knob the low ones. Turning clockwise increases the set intensity, whilst an
anti-clockwise movement reduces the intensity.
Loudness function LLO OU UD D ((3 3))
The loudness function can only be operated on the front of the appliance
using this button. It is a feature of audio amplifiers that enables the user
to boost high and low frequencies at the press of a button. The loud-
ness function therefore corrects the impression of loudness at low volume.
This is necessary because the human ear registers high and low frequen-
cies at low volume but identical sound pressure much less than the
middle ones (sound frequencies around 1 kHz).
