MORE DETAIL OF THE DAB SETTINGS MENU OPTIONS:
AUTOSCAN: Select Autoscan to re-scan the entire DAB band 
and refresh the station list. 
MANUAL TUNING: Manual tuning enables you to search 
the band manually by pressing the 
P
or
O
button to step
through the multiplex numbers and check if any have usable 
signal strength on a bargraph display. Manual tuning is not 
necessary in normal operation where scanning will have 
automatically established a station list of all usable stations.
DRC: DRC is Dynamic Range Compression. Enabling DRC may 
improve the sound of DAB radio when listening in a noisy 
room.
PRUNE: If your station list includes stations that you can no 
longer receive (you may have moved to a different area), you 
can select the ‘Prune’ option to remove any stations that can 
no longer be received from the Station List.
MORE DETAIL OF THE SYSTEM SUB-MENU OPTIONS:
SLEEP: Select this option to set a sleep time in the range 
15-90 minutes. When a sleep time is set, the radio will set 
to Standby after the sleep delay time. Choose ‘Sleep Off’ to 
cancel sleep mode.
ALARM: Select this option to set alarm times and activate 
one or both of the dual alarms. There are more details of 
alarm setting on the following page.
TIME: Select the time option to set the clock manually. This 
may be useful if you are in an area where it is not possible to 
receive DAB radio broadcasts. Within the time menu options 
it is also possible to change the clock display format between 
12 and 24 hour, to choose whether the clock should set from 
the DAB time signal (Auto update) and to change the format 
of the time and date display.
BACKLIGHT: Select ‘Backlight’, then the ‘Timeout’ sub-option 
to change the backlight settings. Choose from ON (backlight 
is permanently on) or a delay time in seconds. If you choose a 
delay time, the backlight will switch to full brightness when 
a button is pressed, then change to low brightness once the 
delay you set has elapsed.
FACTORY RESET: Select the ‘Yes’ sub-option to reset all the 
settings of your radio to factory original settings. The station 
list will also be cleared and any stored preset memories will 
be erased. After a factory reset the radio will re-scan the band 
and renew the station list.
SW VERSION: This option will display the version number of 
the control software currently installed in your radio. This will 
be helpful to a technician who is servicing the radio.

MORE DETAIL OF THE FM SETTINGS MENU OPTIONS
SCAN SETTING: With this menu option you can set the 
scanning sensitivity of the FM radio to two different levels- 
‘Strong stations only’ or ‘All stations’. Setting to ‘Strong 
stations only’ will exclude weaker stations resulting in a 
quicker scan. If you set to ‘All stations’ the scan will stop at 
every station detected, even if the signal is weak.
AUDIO SETTINGS: This option enables you to set the radio 
to receive FM in Auto mode (Mono/Stereo) or in Mono only. 
This may be useful if the signal is weak and the broadcast 
is noisy.
SYSTEM: The System sub-menu options are the same as 
those described in the DAB settings section.
