Welcome To View Quest
View Quest is a unique British brand inspired by the fusion of Sound and Style.
At View Quest we believe that colour and design is an important part of who we are, so why
should the technology we buy only be Black or Silver and lacking individuality of design?
Our award winning acoustic development programme ensures all our products feature the latest
technology and unbeaten sound quality. Couple this with our passion for the creative world of: the arts,
fashion & interior design and this means our products don’t just sound great, they look great too.
So thank you for joining the View Quest Revolution with our award
winning technology that’s designed to match your style.
We encourage you to fall in love with View Quest and your new Retro DAB+.

Battery Use
Introducing your View Quest Retro DAB+
Your Retro DAB+ can be powered by 4 x Type ‘C’ batteries.
Be sure to insert batteries of the correct type and ensure correct polarity (+/-).
What can my Retro DAB+ do apart from look fab?
Here’s a brief run-down of your Retro DAB+’s
capabilities. Everything is explained fully later in
this guide.
Battery Removal
GB
iPod/iPhone dock
Play an iPhone or iPod with either a 30-pin or
Lightning connector. Your music will never have
sounded so good, and your iPhone or iPod will charge
at the same time.
Use thumb or finger to pull clip down
and outward in order to release
battery cover.
DAB/DAB+ receiver
Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) is the next big thing
in radio. Clarity, station choice and ease of tuning are
often cited as benefits. There are two versions, DAB
and DAB+. Your Retro DAB+ works with either. You can store up to 10 DAB/DAB+ stations as presets.
FM Radio
DAB isn’t everywhere, so there’s an FM radio in your Retro DAB+ that means you can listen wherever DAB
or FM radio is available. You can store up to 10 FM stations as presets.
Auxiliary connection
Lets you plug in and listen to an external audio source so your older devices aren’t left out.
Dual Alarms
Wake up to your favourite radio station, favourite tracks, or a beeper.
