BATTERY INSTALLATION

Battery must be inserted correctly to avoid damaging to the remote control. Always remove the battery when the remote control will not be used for a long period of time, as this may cause leakage of the battery and subsequently damage the remote.

Inserting the remote control batteries

1. Push the release clip on the battery compartment downwards and lift to remove the cover.
2. Insert 2 x 1.5 V AAA batteries (not supplied) the correct way around, by observing the polarity (+ and -) indicated on the battery compartment.
3. Place the furthest end of the cover in position on top of the battery compartment. Then press the nearest end of the cover until you hear it click firmly into place.

Simple diagram showing a rectangular object with an arrow pointing to a small circular feature, labeled with number 3 (no text or symbols on the object itself)

If the distance required between the remote control and the appliance decreases, the batteries are exhausted. In this case replace the batteries with new ones.

Auto standby

When playing media from a connected device, the device automatically switches to standby if:

• No button is pressed for 10 minutes,
• No audio from a connected device for 10 minutes

Power setting

Plug in the supplied AC/DC power adaptor to an AC household outlet in order to get power source, and plug the DC connector of power adaptor to the power jack on the rear panel of main unit. Then the unit is ready work for you.

Open the battery compartment cover of remote control, insert 2 x AAA batteries to the compartment according to the correct polarity showed in the compartment. (Batteries are not included) We recommend use high quality alkaline or lithium batteries for the best product performance. Heavy duty or rechargeable batteries are not recommended.

Press the POWER button to turn ON or turn OFF the unit.

ASA emergency announcements

ASA (Automatic Safety Alert) is the new standard for official emergency announcements via the DAB network.

The Dabman 280CD automatically receives all emergency announcements and plays them back if the current station is participating in the ASA system.

Even in standby mode, the Dabman 280CD searches for emergency announcements in the background and switches the radio on automatically if necessary. This means you are always optimally supplied with warning messages. We therefore recommend to always operate the device in standby mode and never disconnecting it completely from the mains.

ASA warning messages can be labelled with a specific warning area so that only listeners in certain local, relevant areas received a warning message. To do this, your location must be stored in the device.

You can set up your ASA area code during the initial setup or at any time in the DAB settings. The area code consists of three blocks, each with four numbers from 1 to 8. This code contains your position to an accuracy of approximately one kilometer.

    A["00:00 Enter area code ? <YES> No"] --> B["00:00 Manual Entry 1****-****-****"]
    C["00:00 Manual Entry 1255-4467-1352"] --> B

You can calculate your ASA Area Code at https://asa.radio/. You can search for your address there or use the GPS function on your smartphone.

ATTENTION: If you do not store an area code in the device, the device will ignore all local messages and only play back nationwide messages. You may therefore miss important messages that only affect your area. We strongly recommend that you program in your area code in order to receive all important messages.

Playing music via USB

This device has been developed using the latest technical advances in the USB field. However, given the wide range of USB storage device types that are currently on the market, we unfortunately cannot guarantee full compatibility with all USB storage devices. For this reason, in rare cases, there may be problems in playing back files from USB storage devices. This is not due to device malfunction.

1. Press the POWER button to turn on the unit.
2. Press the MODE button repeatedly until 'USB' appears on the display.
3. Connect a USB storage device directly into the PLAYER USB port. The display briefly shows the number of folders and then the total number of tracks. Playback will automatically start.
4. Operation of the control buttons is the same as for MP3 CD playback. Please refer to MP3 DISC SECTION operations as described previously.

NOTES:

• Always directly connect a USB storage medium to the USB port to prevent any malfunctions.
- The PLAYER USB port is not designed for charging external devices.
- Important: Switch the device to a different operating mode before you remove the USB storage device.
