Note that you must select a channel number with a signal before adjusting the aerial. Check your DAB broadcasters' websites for channel numbers.

However, if you tune in programs via the AUTO TUNING menu, your settings for previously tuned programs are deleted.
About FM ...
If the stereo signals are not strong enough to produce acceptable sound, the music system automatically switches to mono sound.
Additional CD functions are available via the AUDIO CD menu. This includes naming CDs, editing series of tracks and the random and repeat playback functions.
The random playback function plays all the tracks on the loaded CD in random order. The repeat playback function plays the loaded CD over and over – for up to 12 hours on end.
The random and repeat functions can be used in conjunction or separately.
If some of the tracks on an audio CD are not to your liking, you can edit the CD, so that only the tracks you select are played. Once you select a series of tracks, and activate the edit function, the music system plays the series of tracks you have chosen every time you play this CD.
To enter the AUDIO CD menu, press LIST, enter the SETUP menu and then enter the AUDIO CD menu.
What's on the AUDIO CD menu ...

Useful hints ...

The angle indicator is only available if the disc contains the alternate camera angle feature.
Options ... Some DVDs feature a Parental Lock level. If you specify a level lower that the one contained on the disc, the disc will not play, unless your pincode is entered. Some discs also support the Country Code feature. This means that the player does not play certain scenes on a disc, depending on the Country Code and the Parental Lock level you set. Before you can set the Parental Lock level or the Country Code, you must enter a pincode. You can change the pincode at any time. If you forget your pincode, you must enter the DVD OPTIONS menu and reset the PARENTAL LOCK. The function is then deactivated. The DVD OPTIONS menu is described to the right. DivX VOD is used for video on demand. Use the menu to generate a DivX VOD registration code which you submit to your provider. Contact your DivX VOD provider for further instructions.

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) - Environmental protection
The European Parliament and the Council of the European Union have issued the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive. The purpose of the Directive is the prevention of waste of electrical and electronic equipment, and to promote the reuse and recycling and other forms of recovery of such waste. As such the Directive concerns producers, distributors and consumers.
The WEEE directive requires that both manufacturers and end-consumers dispose of electrical and electronic equipment and parts in an environmentally safe manner, and that equipment and waste are reused or recovered for their materials or energy. Electrical and electronic equipment and parts must not be disposed of with ordinary household refuse; all electrical and electronic equipment and parts must be collected and disposed of separately.
Products and equipment which must be collected for reuse, recycling and other forms of recovery are marked with the pictogram shown.
When disposing of electrical and electronic equipment by use of the collection systems available in your country, you protect the environment, human health and contribute to the prudent and rational use of natural resources. Collecting electrical and electronic equipment and waste prevents the potential contamination of nature with the hazardous substances which may be present in electrical and electronic products and equipment.
Your Bang & Olufsen retailer will assist with and advise you of the correct way of disposal in your country.
