HD Radio

Information (If Available)

Note: HD Radio broadcasts are not available in all markets.

HD Radio technology is the digital evolution of analog AM/FM radio. Your
system has a special receiver which allows it to receive digital broadcasts
(where available) in addition to the analog broadcasts it already receives.
Digital broadcasts provide a better sound quality than analog broadcasts
with free, crystal clear audio and no static or distortion. For more
information, and a guide to available stations and programming, please
visit www.hdradio.com.

When this feature is enabled and you are tuned to a station broadcasting
HD Radio technology, you may notice the following indicators on your
screen:

HD) logo blinks when a digital
station is being acquired and is solid
when digital audio is playing. When
this logo is available, you may also
see Title and Artist fields on-screen.

Multicast indicator appears in FM
mode (only) if the current station is
broadcasting multiple digital
broadcasts.

The numbers that are highlighted signify available digital channels where
new or different content is available. HD1 signifies the main programming
status and is available in analog and digital broadcasts. Any additional
multicast stations (HD2–HD7) are only broadcast digitally.

Tagging allows you to save a song to download later. When
you are on an acquired HD Radio station, the TAG button is
available (provided the feature has been turned on). To use
the tag feature:

1. Press AM/FM > Options > TAG On.

2. When you hear a song you like, touch TAG.
