The C445 Tuner is simple to operate, and very similar to NAD Tuners you
may have used in the past. This section will explain the use of several
features that may be new to you.
• Install the two supplied AAA batteries in the remote control as
shown. Be certain to observe the (+) and (-) polarity indicators shown
in the bottom of the battery compartment.
• When using the C445 Tuner for the first time, it will be placed in a
standby mode, as indicated by the amber colour of the Power
Indicator. Once the unit is in standby, you may begin a listening
session by pressing the System Power Control on the front panel or
the Power On button on the remote control. Note that the Power
Indicator will turn green. To turn the unit off at the end of a listening
session simply press the System Power Control on the front panel or
the Standby button on the remote. This places the unit in the
Standby mode, and the Power Indicator will turn amber to remind
you that the unit is ready for operation when a power command is
received from the remote control.
When you will be away from home for an extended period of time it is
always a good idea to completely turn the unit off by unplugging it from
the AC wall outlet. Note that the backup system in the C445 Tuner will
retain information such as programmed presets for 14 days.
To dim the brightness of the front panel display, press the Dimmer
button on the front panel. The first press will dim the lights to half
normal. A second press will turn the display to normal brightness again.
DAB OPERATION
When you turn on the tuner, the tuner will initialize. During 2 seconds,
the display will show the following messages:
After the initialization process, the tuner will perform an automatic scan
for available local digital radio stations. This sequence can not be
interrupted. During the sequence, the following message will be visible
on the display.
The arrows show the progress of the sequence. On the right top side,
you will see how many digital stations have been found.
If no digital stations can be found, the display will show NO STATIONS
AVAILABLE. You can now select MANUAL TUNE by pressing the Select
Button or turn the Control Ring ) to select AUTOTUNE FULL or
AUTOTUNE LOCAL to try to manually find available stations.
If no stations can be found, please check that the antenna is connected
correctly and if your area is covered by DAB.
STATION LIST
Once the C445 Tuner has finished the scanning sequence, it will display
the available stations in alphanumeric order. Turn the Control Ring
clockwise or counter-clockwise to scroll through the list of available
stations. The upper display line in the Information Display will always
show the current station you are listening to. The lower display line
shows the next station in the list. To select the next station, simply press
the Select button on the front panel or on the remote control.
The current station list will remain in the memory of the C445 Tuner. It
can be updated by running the Autotune function as described above,
or deleted by resetting the C445's memory (see page 14).
NOTE: The station list can be shown in different order. For more
information, see page 11.
It can occur that one of the stations in your list is temporarily not
available. A "?" symbol will be visible in front of the station name to
indicate such a station. If you select the station, the Information Display
will show STATION NOT AVAILABLE, and will go back to the current
radio station.
PRESET SETTING
Besides having the C445 Tuner create a station list, you can also store
presets into the tuners memory.
1 Tune to the desired station with the Control Ring.
2 Press the Memory Button on the front panel or on the remote
control. You will see the 01 segments in the Information Display will
start to blink.
3 Turn the Control Ring, until the desired station preset is shown in the
Information Display. The desired preset can also be entered with the
Numeric Keys on the remote control.
4 Within 4 seconds, press the Memory Button again to store the
station in the memory.
