Antenna: Description and Operation

Function of automatic antenna (up to approx. O6/90) (USA)





The antenna can be moved into 3 different positions with the antenna switch when the radio is switched on.




Antenna switch in middle position
The antenna extends automatically approx. 30 cm when the radio is switched on. By briefly operating the switch, the antenna can be extended to the position which offers best reception.

Antenna switch locked in extended position
The antenna extends to its full length.

Note: If the antenna switch is in the middle or extend position, the antenna is fully retracted after glow start or ignition start switch position 0 or when the radio is switched off.

Antenna switch locked in retracted position
The antenna does not extend, e.g. when playing a cassette or the antenna retracts fully if it was extended.
