SLEEP TIMER

DAB
Select the DAB mode with the "STANDBY / FUNCTION" button, until "DAB" is shown in the display.
The radio will automatically do a full scan of DAB+ stations. The list of stations is then stored, eliminating the need for another full scan when the radio is turned on next time. When the scan is complete, the stations are stored in alphabetical order. The first available station will be played back.
NOTE:
If there is no DAB+ reception at any time, change the position of the unit or adjust the antenna. Press and hold the "AMS/MODE" button for approx. 3 seconds to start a new search.
In DAB mode, press the "STOP/MENU" button to enter the DAB menu.
The DAB menu is divided into menus: Full scan, Manual tune, DRC, Prune and System.
- Full scan:
Starts the station scan. The DAB frequency band is scanned for stations.
- Manual tune:
To do so you need to know the station frequency. This can be found on the internet site of the broadcasting service. Select individual frequencies using the "ENTER / PLAY / PAUSE / CLOCK" button.
• DRC:
Short for Digital Range Control (dynamic range). The term DRC describes the ratio between the quietest and the loudest sound. If the dynamic range is very high there are very soft sounds as well as very loud sounds.
Under some circumstances this may present a problem with playback. Let us assume that you are listening to a radio station in a relatively loud environment. By increasing the volume you can play the quiet sections louder.
This however has the disadvantage that the loud sections become uncomfortably loud. It makes sense here to reduce the dynamic range. Select between the options:
- DRC off: The dynamic range is not reduced.
- DRC high: The dynamic range is sharply reduced.
- DRC low: The dynamic range is slightly reduced
- Prune:
It may be that you can no longer receive some stations after a station scan or change of location. With this function you can delete these stations from the reception list. Select "YES" and confirm with the "ENTER / PLAY / PAUSE / CLOCK" button.
