6 Preparing the device for use

6.1 Improving the antenna reception

The number and quality of the stations to be received depend on the reception conditions at the installation location. Excellent reception can be achieved with the DAB / FM telescopic antenna (22).

The antenna must be extended to its full length and positioned for best reception. Note:

To receive digital radio stations (DAB/DAB+ operation) the telescopic antenna should be extended to its full length.

Possibly try to find another installation location.

6.2 Connecting to the mains

Insert the mains cable into the mains socket (24) on the DIGITRADIO 1990 and attach the plug to a wall outlet (100 - 240 V \~, 50/60 Hz)
Ensure that the operating voltage of the power adapter matches the mains voltage before you insert it into the wall socket.

When the device is not being used, remove the plug from the socket. Pull the plug and not on the cable. Remove the plug before a storm starts. Remove the plug if the device is not going to be used for a prolonged period, e.g. before going away on a long trip. The heat generated during operation must be dissipated by means of sufficient air circulation. Therefore the device must not be covered or installed in a closed cupboard. Ensure there is a free space of at least 10 cm around the device.
