Using the sound system for the first time
1. Place your sound system on a flat surface.
2. Fully extend the telescopic aerial located on the rear of your sound
system. The aerial should be fully extended and positioned vertically
for optimum reception.
3. Insert the adaptor plug into the DC socket located on the rear of your
sound system. Plug the adaptor into a standard 13 amp mains socket
outlet. The display will show 'ROBERTS RADIO, ENJOY LISTENING'
for a few seconds. During this time the sound system is scanning to
find a DAB radio signal.
4. If no signal is found, it may be necessary to relocate your sound system
to a position giving better reception. You should then carry out a scan
to find stations as described on page 11.
IMPORTANT: The mains adaptor is used as the means of connecting the
sound system to the mains supply. The mains socket used for the sound
system must remain accessible during normal use. In order to disconnect
the sound system from the mains completely, the mains adaptor should
be removed from the mains socket outlet completely.
Characters appearing on the LCD display indicate that the sound system
is connected to and powered from the mains supply.

Operating your sound system
1. Press and release the On/Standby button to switch on your sound
system.
When first switched on, the sound system will be in DAB mode. After
each use the sound system will remember the mode used and then
switch on in that mode the next time that it is used.
2. If the radio has been used before, the last used station will be selected.
3. If this is the first time that the radio has been used a scan of the Band
III DAB channels will be carried out (depending on whether scanning
was already completed in standby mode). During the scanning process
the display will show the progress of the station search. The number
on the right of the display is the number of stations that have been
found.
4. When the scan is completed the first station (in numeric-alpha order
0...9, A...Z will be selected. The first station in the list of stations found
during scanning will be played. The display will show the station name.
5. If no signals are found then it may be necessary to relocate your radio
to a position giving better reception. You should then carry out a scan
to find stations as described on page 11.
• Your radio has an indicator on the display to indicate the strength
of the DAB radio signal being received.
Note: When first switched on, the radio will set the volume to a moderately
high level, in case the broadcast is very quiet. After you have set the
volume, the radio will remember the setting that you have applied for the
next time that it is used.
