6. Preparing the RDS Radio Alarm for operation 1Carefully take the RDS Radio Alarm out of

the packaging.

Notice:
RDS means Radio Data System. It is a system for transmitting additional information with radio programmes. Additional information is for example the name of the station, which is shown in the display of the RDS receiver. Additionally, the RDS Radio Alarm uses RDS for the reception of time signals for the automatic adjustment of time and date settings. After insertion of the plug in the power socket the radio of the RDS Radio Alarm is switched on. The automatic station scanner starts for several seconds, recognisable in the running of the frequencies in the display d. Subsequently it breaks off the station scan; shown in the display d are the date 01-01-07 and the time 0:00. After a few seconds the time display changes over 1:00 and 1:59 to 2:00. The station scanner starts again; the clock in the radio alarm is now trying to receive date and time information over RDS. The clock symbol in the display blinks until a stable RDS reception is available. This can take several minutes. When time and date information is received, the radio switches itself off for the moment. In the display the current date and the current time is then displayed.

| Attention!

Do not allow the RDS Radio Alarm to fall! It could become irreparably damaged.
2Place the RDS Radio Alarm only on a level,
scratch resistant and non-slip surface. The feet on the rear of the RDS Radio Alarm can be adjusted to three levels. You can thus set the slant of the RDS Radio Alarm to your wishes. However, ensure that both feet are adjusted to the same angle. Otherwise the RDS Radio Alarm will be unstable and could fall down.
3Unwind the power cable 2# to its full length.
Insert the plug into a power socket. The display d will light up. The automatic station scanner starts, visible in the running of the frequencies in the displayd. This takes about 30 seconds.
In general, the date is only shown in the display when the radio is switched off. After a few seconds the automatic station scanner starts again. The radio scans the frequency range for receivable VHF/FM radio stations and saves them automatically to fixed programme positions. Thereby, the clock symbol blinks in the display d again. As soon as the frequency ranges are fully scanned, the radio remains switched on; the last-saved radio station is playing. Should no time or date information be received by means of RDS, there begins
After this, the RDS Radio Alarm is ready for operation.
