clock radio. Plug the adaptor into a standard 13 amp mains socket  
outlet. The display will show "Roberts" for a few seconds and then  
the display will show "Setting clock". The clock hands will then move  
to 12:00. The radio will scan for DAB signals and if a DAB signal is  
found it will then show the current time and date in the display. The  
clock hands will then move to show the correct time.  
4. If no stations are found, "Clock not set" will be displayed. It may be  
necessarytorelocateyourclockradiotoapositiongivingbetterrecep-

the clock radio to the mains supply. The mains socket used  
for the clock radio must remain accessible during normal use. In order  
to disconnect the radio from the mains completely, the mains  
adaptor should be removed from the mains socket outlet  
completely.  
Characters appearing on the LCD display indicate that the clock radio is
