The BTM (Best Tuning Memory) function picks
out DAB ensembles and automatically assigns
the services within the ensembles to preset
service numbers. The unit can preset up to 40
services. If services have been previously set,
the BTM function operates under the following
conditions:
• If you activate the BTM function while

listening to a preset service, the unit will
store detected services (by overwriting) only
to preset numbers higher than that of the
current present service.

• If you activate the function while listening to

a service that is not preset, the unit will
replace the contents of all preset numbers.

• In both cases above, if the unit detects a

service that is identical to one already preset,
the previously stored service remains
unchanged and the newly detected service is
not preset.

While listening to a DAB programme,
press (MENU).

Press M or m repeatedly until “BTM”
appears.

Press (ENTER).
A beep sounds when the service is stored.
After activating the BTM function, the unit
tunes the service assigned in the preset
memory 1 automatically.
