The special features of the DIGITRADIO Bike 1 The DIGITRADIO Bike 1 consists of a DAB+/UKW receiver with the following functions:

You can store up to 20 DAB+ and 20 FM stations.

Preparing the DIGITRADIO Bike 1 for operation

Charge battery Before using the DIGITRADIO Bike 1 for the first time, you should first fully charge the battery. Make sure that the operating voltage of the power supply unit matches the local mains voltage before plugging it into the wall socket. WARNING! Do not touch the mains plug with wet hands, risk of electric shock! ATTENTION! Lay the mains cable so that nobody can trip over it.

Connect the supplied mains adapter to the socket labelled DC-IN (1) on the back of the DIGITRADIO Bike 1. To do this, lift the protective cover of the socket and fold it upwards. Then connect the power supply unit to the mains.20

The charge status is shown on the display by means of a BaGerie symbol if the DIGITRADIO Bike 1 is in standby mode. If the device is in operation and the battery is fully charged, [Fully charged] appears continuously on the display.

Align antenna The number and quality of the stations to be received depends on the reception conditions at the installation site. Excellent reception can be achieved with the aerial.

Fold the antenna out of the holder on the back of the DIGITRADIO Bike 1 and set it upright. The exact alignment of the telescopic antenna is important, especially in the fringe areas of DAB+ reception. On the Internet, for example, you can find "www.dabplus.de" to quickly find the location of the nearest transmitter mast. Start the first scan outdoors in the direction of the transmitter mast. If the weather is poor, DAB+ reception may only be possible to a limited extent.21 Do not touch the aerial while a station is playing. This can lead to impaired reception and audio dropouts. Depending on the mounting position of the DIGITRADIO Bike 1 on the bike, the antenna can also remain folded in. However, reception problems and dropouts in playback may occur more frequently in this case.22 Radio holder Screws Quick release
