Using the radio for the first time
1. Place your radio on a flat surface.
2. Fully extend the telescopic aerial. The aerial should be fully extended
and positioned vertically for optimum reception.
3. Plug the mains lead into the mains socket located on the back of your
radio ensuring that the plug is pushed fully into the socket.
4. Plug the other end of the mains lead into the wall socket and switch
on the wall socket. The display will show 'Roberts Enjoy Listening' for
a few seconds. During this time the radio is scanning to find a DAB
radio signal. After a short time the current time and day will appear
on the display.
5. If no signal is found, '0:00' will be displayed. 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.
IMPORTANT: The mains plug is used as the means of connecting the
radio to the mains supply. The mains socket used for the radio must remain
accessible during normal use. In order to disconnect the radio from the
mains completely, the mains plug should be removed from the mains
socket outlet completely.
Characters appearing on the LCD display indicate that the radio is connected
to and powered from the mains supply.

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.

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.

to a position giving better reception. You should then carry out a scan
to find stations as described on page 11.
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.
