8. Channel list: Touch to view a list of

available Ensembles and channels. The list
can be sorted by Ensemble, Channel,
Subchannel or by Category.
• If an Ensemble is selected from the

list, all available channels from that
ensemble will be displayed.

• Sorting by Subchannel is only

available when the current channel is
broadcasting subchannels.

• If Category is selected, touch the

chosen category to view
corresponding channels, before
making your selection from the list.

Once the desired selection has been made,
select the Back soft key to return to the
main DAB menu.

9. Subchannel tier: If subchannels are

broadcast by the current channel, this soft
key will be active. Select to view available
subchannels and then select the chosen
subchannel from the list.

10. Auto-tune: Select to scan for all available

DAB Ensembles/channels. This needs to be
done before using the DAB radio for the
first time.

Auto-tune is also useful when travelling
long distances, so regional Ensembles can
be tuned.

During Auto-tune, a pop-up shows tuning
progress.

The Auto-tune process will not affect
current presets, but some presets may not
operate if the channel they relate to is no
longer available (No reception displays).

11. Station presets: Each DAB band has 6

preset positions.
• Touch and release to tune the radio to

the station stored on that preset.

• Touch and hold to store the current

station on that preset (the radio will
mute while the station is stored).

• Use the seek buttons on the steering

wheel to select the next or previous
preset station.

Note: If you attempt to select a preset
channel that is now unavailable or invalid,
No channel found is displayed.

DIGITAL RADIO RECEPTION

DAB radio can significantly increase the
number of radio channels/stations available.
The DAB signals are transmitted to most major
cities, towns and motorway networks.

Digital radio is transmitted from regional
transmitters. Some local channels are not
available outside the range of their
transmitters. If you want to listen to local
channels as you move around the country, use
the auto-tune function (AUTO) to build new
channel lists.

Note: If any auxiliary electrical equipment is
connected to the vehicle, then this may reduce
the DAB radio sound quality.

ENSEMBLES

Unlike AM/FM radio, DAB transmits several
channels/stations on a single frequency. A
group of channels is known as an ensemble.
Some channels within the ensemble may have
subchannels offering several listening options.

If reception is lost when the vehicle is in
motion, the vehicle may be out of range of the
ensemble. To build a new list of ensembles,
select Auto-tune.
