Using the touch panel
Your radio has a stylish touch panel instead of conventional buttons. This 
is designed so that it is easy to clean using a slightly damp cloth. Do not 
use solvents. 
Be sure to dry of any moisture from the touch panel after cleaning, since this 
may otherwise affect the reliability of the touch panel sensor system.
To operate the buttons simply touch the button area with the tip of a fi nger 
for about half a second. Some operations such as storing radio presets, 
require a longer operation of the button. In this case simply keep your 
fi nger held on the button area for 2-3 seconds until the display on the 
radio shows that the command has been accepted.
You may fi nd that at fi rst, the radio does not always detect that you have 
touched a button. If so, try touching with a little more pressure, a little 
higher or lower, or for slightly longer. You will soon fi nd the optimum touch 
needed to control your radio.
Using an alternative aerial
Your radio is supplied with a simple wire aerial. This will be satisfactory in 
the majority of installations.  However, if reception is poor in your kitchen, 
you may wish to consider connecting the radio to an alternative aerial. 
The supplied aerial is secured by a small plastic cover. Use a cross-head 
screw driver to remove this cover. The aerial may then be removed by 
pulling with a twisting action. 
Once the aerial has been removed, a standard F-type socket is available 
to which an alternative aerial may be connected.
