Denver MIR-260 Quick Start Guide by 3wisemonkeys
Peelable front fascia layer
There is a peelable layer on the front fascia of your stereo – on initial inspection it is not obvious and
just looks like your stereo has a scratched appearance! Peel back the layer using a fingernail from
the edge of the players front fascia to lift an edge and then peel it away to reveal a shiny, pristine
front.
Recommended first steps:
1. Remove peelable film from front of stereo
2. Get your Wi-Fi password to hand (usually printed on the back of your internet router).
Power up the stereo and setup WiFi access for the stereo
3. Choose the EQ setting that makes the audio sound best to you
Browsing the menu system
Use the MENU button on the top of the stereo to take you to the menu system for the stereo.
Use the -SCROLL+ wheel control on the top of the stereo to scroll through lists / options in the
stereos menu system
Press down on the -SCROLL+ wheel control on the top of the stereo to choose any highlighted option
on the stereos menu system
Use the LEFT button on top of the stereo to go back an option on the stereos menu system
Setting up Wi-Fi on your new Denver MIR-260
When first switching your new Denver MIR-260 stereo on, the stereo will boot up and eventually
after a minute or so ask you “Configure Network?”.
If you say yes then this will take you straight to the option “ADD/REMOVE A/P”.
Hit ENTER to choose “ADD/REMOVE A/P” and then choose option 1, “ADD A/P(SCAN)”. This will now
take you to step 2 below.
If you don’t initially set up the network on first switching on your MIR-260 you can go back to add
the network details via the below:
1. Go in to the MENU option on your MIR-260 and choose the options: CONFIGURATION >
NETWORK > WI-FI NETWORK > ADD/REMOVE A/P > ADD A/P(SCAN)… hit enter on this option “ADD
A/P(SCAN)”.

2. Stereo now shows “Scanning” on screen following which, after a few seconds, the stereo will list
all potential WiFi network access points that it can find.
3. Scroll up / down the displayed Wi-Fi network access points the stereo has found to find your
router named and then click on your Wi-Fi router name.
“Enter Passphrase” is now displayed on the stereos screen and you would need to enter your
networks WiFi pass code
“Associating [Access point name]” > “Association Complete” if access point correct WiFi passcode
was entered.
Adjust the EQ settings for improved audio
Your MIR-260 comes with pre-set equalizer settings. Denver have set the default as FLAT, but we
think if you change this setting immediately you will see improved audio. Our favourite is ROCK
whether we are listening to classical, pop or rock. We feel ROCK setting gives the stereos audio
greater richness & depth. Go to:
MENU > CONFIGURATION > EQ
In here you can now choose the EQ / equaliser setting that best suits your music.
DAB Radio
When using the DAB radio for the first time the stereo will request to carry out a full tune. We
recommend saying yes (make sure your aerial is extended and is fully upright for best reception).
If you didn’t carry out a full scan then you can go back and carry out a full scan later (or rescan if you
have moved the stereo to another location for better reception) by going to:
MENU > CONFIGURATION > DAB SETUP > DAB FULL SCAN
RE-ORDER YOUR DAB STATION LIST: Once you have tuned in all available DAB radio stations when
you go to MENU > DAB RADIO all channels that have been found will be listed. You can highlight any
radio station and press the RIGHT button (on the top of the stereo) to access the options of moving
this station up or down the listed channels … or simply deleting it from the listed channels, if it isn’t a
channel you ever want to use.
You can also carry out re-organising your DAB channel list in MENU > CONFIGURATION > DAB SETUP
> DAB STATION LIST
CHANGING DAB CHANNEL: To change from the current DAB channel you are listening to, press the
LEFT button on the top of the stereo to go back to the DAB channel list. Now scroll up and down the
channel list by turning the -SCROLL+ wheel control on the top of the stereo. Once the channel you
want to listen to is highlighted click / press the -SCROLL+ wheel down.

MY FAVOURITES
My Favourites is accessed either using the FAVO button on the top of the stereo or in the menu
system: MENU > MY FAVOIURITES
When on any radio station that you want to save to MY FAVOURITE just press and hold the FAVO
button for 3-4 seconds (a small downward pointing arrow will be displayed after this time at the top
left of the screen) to save the station to My Favourite area.
Now you can very quickly and easily access any of your preferred radio stations just by using the MY
FAVOURITE menu option.
