About Station Presets

The Solo XT has 20 station presets. The presets can be used to store either FM or DAB stations. Because of

the way the Solo XT places stations in the presets you may want to plan how you store them. Here’s how it

works. The  rst station you store goes into Preset 1. The second station goes into Preset 2 and so on, up to 20

stations. If you remove a preset all the stations in presets above the one you removed, drop down a preset

position. The table below gives an example.

Preset # 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

originally programmed stations FM 89.70 FM 90.95 FM 100.30 FM 104.95 DAB 211.648 DAB 217.088 DAB 222.064

after removing presets 2 and 6 FM 89.70 FM 100.30 FM 104.95 DAB 211.648 DAB 222.064

It may be helpful to put the presets in some logical order. You could put the FM presets in order of ascending

frequency. For example put 89.70 into Preset 1, 90.95 into Preset 2, 93.70 into Preset 3, etc. Or you could

assign presets on the basis of how often you listen to them. For example, your favorite station could go into

Preset 1, the next favorite into preset 2, etc.

Setting a Station Preset

Tune in the FM or DAB station you want to assign to a preset.

Press and hold the TUNE control for 3 seconds. The preset

indicator in the upper left corner of the display will light

indicating the station has been stored in the preset.

In this example FM station 104.75 has been assigned to preset 1.

Tuning in a Preset Station

Turn the MODE/INFO control to highlight “Preset” in the display.

Press the MODE/INFO control. The last preset tuned in is

recalled.

Turn the TUNE control to select the station preset you want.

Press the TUNE control to select the preset.

Removing One or More Presets

To remove one preset, tune in the preset station as described above.

Press and hold the TUNE control until “Preset Cleared”  ashes in the

display.

If you want to clear all the presets so you can reprogram them, press and hold the TUNE control for 10

seconds until “Presets Empty” appears in the display.

Alarm Clock Features

The Solo XT has two independent alarm settings. Each can have its own type of alarm —wake to tone, wake

to music or both. Both types of alarms start at a low volume level that gently increases. In addition you can

set the alarms for every day, weekdays only or weekends only .

Alarm Setup

Press and hold the Alarm 1 or Alarm 2 button for one second to access

the “Alarm Setup” screen shown here.

Introducción

Gracias por elegir Boston Acoustics y felicitaciones por la compra de la the Radio DAB de Alta Performance

Solo XT no lo sorprenderá. Si es su primer producto Boston, bienvenido – creemos que ha realizado una

excelente elección. La Solo XT es una so sticada radio DAB/FM con alarma dual, entrada auxiliar, salida en

línea (“line out”) y salida para audífonos, todo ello en un exterior de diseño de gran estilo, suave al tacto – y

• Doble función de alarma; cada una de ellas permite elegir despertador con música y/o alarma de tonos

• Las alarmas aumentan gradualmente de volumen para un despertar más agradable

• Repetición de alarma (función “Snooze”) - la totalidad del borde de aluminio delantero es una barra

sensible al tacto, imposible de no encontrar, que permite activar la función de repetición de alarma

• Función de apagado automático (función “Sleep”) que permite escuchar música hasta 90 minutos antes

que la Solo XT se apague automáticamente

Desembalaje y preparación de la Horizon Solo XT

Desembale la Horizon Solo XT cuidadosamente. Si observa algún daño que haya ocurrido durante el

transporte, infórmelo inmediatamente a su vendedor y/o servicio de entrega. Conserve la caja y los

materiales de embalaje para uso futuro. Conserve el recibo de compra en un lugar seguro, ya que podría

necesitarlo para los  nes de la garantía.

Dentro de la caja encontrará la Solo XT (con la antena ya colocada) y el cable de alimentación.

Opciones de colocación

Su Horizon Solo XT tendrá un excelente sonido prácticamente en cualquier ubicación que la coloque. Sin

embargo, si coloca la radio cerca de un muro o de una esquina mejorará la respuesta de bajos. Si bloquea el

puerto de bajos provocará una pérdida de rendimiento.

Posición horizontal o vertical

El panel de control de la Solo XT puede rotar, lo que

permite utilizar la radio en posición horizontal o

vertical. Si desea cambiar la orientación de la radio

gire 90º el anillo que rodea el panel de control.

Simplemente conecte el cable de alimentación a la parte

posterior de la Solo XT y enchufe en un tomacorriente.

Antena

La Horizon Solo XT viene con una antena extensible

conectada a una salida que se encuentra en el panel

posterior.

Nota: Boston Acoustics ha hallado que cuando no se utiliza

la antena provista con el producto, la presencia de señales

fuertes puede interferir con el funcionamiento normal de la

radio.

Controles del panel delantero

Prácticamente todas las funciones de la Horizon Solo XT se operan usando los tres controles que se

encuentran en el panel delantero.

Encendido/Volumen – Controlados mediante la perilla de

mayor tamaño ubicada en la parte central inferior del panel

delantero.

Modo/Info (“Mode/Info”) – Para seleccionar la entrada que

desea utilizar o la función que desea programar.

Sintonizar (“Tune”) – Para sintonizar una nueva emisora.

Estos controles lógicos e intuitivos hacen que la Horizon

Solo XT sea muy fácil de utilizar. El modo de uso es igual

para todas las funciones. Una vez que aprenda a controlar

una de las funciones el resto será muy sencillo. Después que

haya comprendido cómo funcionan los controles es posible
