the plug and not on the cable.
Remove the plug before a storm starts. Remove the plug if the device is not
going to be used for a prolonged period, e.g. before going away on a long trip.
The heat generated during operation must be dissipated by sucient air
circulation. Therefore the device must not be covered or installed in a closed
cupboard. Ensure there is free space of at least 10 cm around the device.
4.3.3 Improving the antenna reception
The number and quality of the stations to be received depend on the reception
conditions at the installation location. Excellent reception is achieved with the DAB+/
FM dipole antenna.
> Connect the dipole antenna to the device and align it lengthways.
It is oen important to ensure the exact alignment of the DAB antenna, in
particular on the outskirts of the DAB reception area. You can quickly find the
location of the nearest transmission mast on the Internet at www.digitalradio.de.
Start the first scan at a window in the direction of the transmission mast.

> Press the MODE buon as oen as required until the desired source is shown
on the display. You can choose between DAB, FM, AUX and CD modes.
7 DAB/DAB+
7.1 What is DAB+?
DAB+ is a new digital format through which crystal clear sound with no noise can
be heard. In contrast to conventional analogue radio stations, DAB+ can be used to
broadcast multiple stations on one and the same frequency. This is referred to as
an ensemble or multiplex. An ensemble is comprised of the radio station, as well as
several service components or data services, which are broadcast individually by the
radio stations. There is information at www.digitalradio.de or www.digitalradio.ch, for
example.
7.1.1 Data compression
With this, digital radio takes advantage of the properties of human hearing. The
human ear does not perceive sounds which are found under a specific minimum
volume. Data which are found under the so-called audibility threshold can, therefore,
be filtered out. This is possible because, in a digital data stream, the relevant relative
volume for other units is saved for every unit of information. Moreover, in an audio
signal, the quieter parts are superimposed by louder ones at a specific limit value.
All the sound information below the threshold of hearing in a piece of music can be
filtered out of the signal to be broadcast. This leads to a reduction of data in the data
stream to be transmied, with no perceptible dierence in sound for the listener (HE
AAC v2 process as a supplementary codification process for DAB+).

7.1.2 Audio stream
With digital radio, audio streams are continuous data streams which contain the
MPEG 1 audio layer 2 frames and thereby represent acoustic information. This
enables standard radio channels to be broadcast and listened to on the receiver
side. Digital radio provides you not only with excellent sound quality radio but also
additional information. This may refer to the programme being broadcast or be
independent information (e.g. news, weather, trac, tips).
7.2 DAB+ (digital radio) reception
> Press the MODE buon until [DAB] is shown on the display.
If DAB+ is being started for the first time, a complete scan will be performed.
In order to perform a complete scan, open the menu by holding down the
Info/Menu buon and use the Tune +/ - and Enter buons to select the menu
item [Complete Scan].
7.2.1 Performing a complete scan
The automatic scan (Complete scan) scans all DAB+ band III channels and
thereby finds all stations being broadcast within the reception area.
In order to perform a complete scan, open the menu by holding down the
Info/Menu buon and use the Tune +/ - and Enter buons to select the menu
item [Complete Scan].
> In order to perform a complete scan, open the menu by keeping the MENU
buon pressed and use the SCROLL&SELECT knob to select the menu item
[DAB Menü]. Press the SCROLL&SELECT knob to open the submenu.
> Using the SCROLL&SELECT knob, select the [Complete scan] menu item and
press it to launch the scan.
> [Scanning...] appears on the display.
Scanning...
During the scan a progress bar and the number of stations found is displayed.
If no stations are found, check the dipole antenna and change the installation
location if required (Section 4.3.3).
