Your Solo Mini is capable of superb radio reception, but only if it is receiving a good quality transmission signal. Solo Mini is fitted with an AM/FM receiver module and an optional DAB receiver, depending on the region where it was sold. The type of aerial you need depends on your listening preferences and the local conditions. Try the aerials supplied with your unit. If you are in a medium to strong signal area, these should be adequate for good reception; if not, you should contact your local Arcam dealer or an aerial installation expert for advice. If Solo Mini causes interference to radio or television reception (which can be determined by switching Solo Mini off and on), the following measures should be taken: < Re-orient the receiving antenna or route the antenna cable of the affected receiver as far as possible from Solo Mini and its cabling. If the transmission signal is reasonably strong in your area then the supplied telescopic aerial should be all you need. When installed and receiving DAB, check the signal strength by pressing the remote control's inFO button until the signal bar graph is displayed. With Solo Mini switched on (blue light showing), gently insert a CD (label-side up) into the disc slot on the front panel. allow the disc to be drawn in by the motorised rollers. If `CD AutoPlay' is enabled, the CD plays immediately; if disabled, the CD waits for a command from the remote or top panel. Alternatively, press SOURCE until the radio type that you wish to listen to (DAB, FM or AM) is displayed on the front panel. The mODE button toggles between the two ways of selecting a station: Tune mode and Preset mode. In tune mode, you can step through the frequency of the FM or AM band, either manually or automatically (see below) using the B or C buttons on the remote control. Found DAB stations are cycled through in sequence in Tune mode. In Preset mode, you can cycle through stations that have been saved as presets, either sequentially (using the B or C buttons on the remote control, or 0 or / on the top panel); press Ok to confirm in each case. Or you can go straight to a particular preset station by pressing its number key on the remote. To directly access a track, press the track number on the numeric keypad of the remote. To store a preset, first tune to the radio station you wish to store.
