Digital Audio Broadcasting is a digital transmission system
where audio signals are converted to digital signals for
broadcasting. DAB+ is broadcast as a group of data called
multiplex (ensemble) which may contain one or more
stations (services). Each station contains a primary
service and there may be one or more secondary services.
This allows several programmes or services to be
transmitted on a single frequency.

When turned on for the first time, the unit scans radio
stations automatically to create a station list. You can make
the Auto Scan again when you move the unit to other areas
or add multiplex channels to the station list.

The number of stations found and the scanning process
are shown on the display.

After the scan:
The stations will be stored in alphanumeric order and the
first station on the list will be selected and you will hear it
through the speakers.
● To listen to other stations, see “Selecting a station in

the station list” on page 20.

● If no station is found, “No Service” appears.

Once a DAB+ station is received, you can select stations
in the station list.

You can manually store stations which Auto Scan cannot
find. If reception is poor, you can adjust the sensitivity.
Manual tune is only available after Auto Scan. Perform
Auto Scan first.
