SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
“SOME DOS AND DON’TS ON THE SAFE USE OF EQUIPMENT”
This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standards but, like
any electrical equipment, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be
assured.
Do read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment.
Do ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and
interconnections between pieces of equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions. Switch off and withdraw the mains plug when making or changing
connections.
Do consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your
equipment.
Do be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.
DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it is
damaged in any way—switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.
DON’T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages.
DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it is
designed for unattended operation or has a standby mode.
Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure that your family know how to do this.
Special arrangements may need to be made for infirm or handicapped people.
DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are distracted from the
requirements of traffic safety. It is illegal to watch television whilst driving.
DON’T listen to headphones at high volume as such use can permanently damage your hearing.
DON’T obstruct the ventilation of the equipment, for example with curtains or soft furnishings.
Overheating will cause damage and shorten the life of the equipment.
DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws—to ensure complete safety always
fit the manufacturer’s approved stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions.
DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to rain or moisture.
ABOVE ALL
– NEVER let anyone, especially children, push anything into holes, slots or any other opening in the
case—this could result in a fatal electrical shock.;
– NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind—it is better to be safe than
sorry!

(product number: CR2025)
Notes on the power cord
• When you are away on travel or otherwise for an
extended period of time, remove the plug from the
wall outlet. A small amount of power (2.3 W) is always
consumed while the power cord is connected to the

Receiving FM Stations with Radio
Data System
Radio Data System allows FM stations to send an
additional signal along with their regular program signals.
With the System, you can receive the following types of
Radio Data System signals.
PS (Program
Service):
Shows commonly known
station names.
PTY (Program
Type):
Shows the type of the programs
being broadcast.
RT (Radio Text): Shows text messages the station
sends.
Enhanced Other
Networks:
Provides information about the
types of programs broadcast by
the Radio Data System stations
on different networks.
Changing the Radio Data System
Information
Each time you press the button, the main
display changes as follows:
NOTES
• “PS,”“PTY,”or “RT” is displayed while the System is
searching for the corresponding Radio Data System
information.
• If no Radio Data System signals are sent by a station,
“NO PS,”“NO PTY,”or “NO RT” appears on the main display.

function still remains active (the indicator stops
flashing and remains lit).
Case 2
If a station/service is broadcasting the program of
your choice
The System automatically switches to the station/
service. The PTY code indicator starts flashing.
\When the program is over, the System goes back
to the previously tuned station/service, but the
function still remains active (the indicator stops
flashing and remains lit).

What is the DAB System?
DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) is one of the digital radio
broadcasting systems available today. It can deliver digital
quality sound without any annoying interference or signal
distortion. Furthermore, it can carry text, pictures and
data. In contrast to FM broadcast, where each program is
transmitted on its own frequency, DAB combines several
programs (called“services”) to form one “ensemble.”
“Primary services”(main radio stations) are sometimes
accompanied by “secondary services”to broadcast
additional programs.
CAUTION:
Electrostatic discharge from your body may cause noise
from the speakers and you cannot hear the broadcast.
If this happens, turn off the System (on standby), then turn
it on again.
Changing the DAB Information
Each time you press the button, the main
display changes as follows:
PTY: Program Type (See page 11.)
DLS: Dynamic Label Segment (text
messages the station sends)
* The preset number is displayed only when
the service has been selected using the
PRESET UP/DOWN keys.
NOTE
• If no signals are sent, “NOSIGNAL”(instead of a service
label), “NO PTY” (instead of PTY), or “NO TEXT” (instead of
DLS) appears on the display.

Scanning for Ensembles
The System scans the DAB bands to pick out available
ensembles.
• When you change the source to DAB for the first
time after plugging in the power cord, the System
automatically performs the scanning.
To start the scanning
Press and hold for more than 2 seconds while
DAB is selected as the source.
• When you move your System or adjust the
antenna position, perform the scanning.
When the scanning is complete, the System starts playing
the first service of the ensemble found first .
Tuning in to All the Ensembles
1“ENSEMBLE” appears on the main
display.
2
Press and hold for more than 2
seconds.
The frequency changes every
second through all of the ensembles
regardless of their signal status.
• Release the button when the
desired ensemble is reached.
Improving the DAB Reception
With the supplied DAB antenna, you may not be able to
receive L-Band ensembles. You can improve the reception
of both L-Band and Band III ensembles by using an active
antenna (see page 4).
To supply the power to the active antenna
After connecting an active antenna, press
and hold for more than 2 seconds while the
System is on standby. Power is supplied to
the active antenna and “ANT.P ON”appears
on the display.
To cut the power supply, press and hold
again. “ANT.P OFF”appears on the display.
• You cannot change this setting when the
Save Mode is activated (see page 6).
