Infotainment System
especially around tall buildings or
hills, causing the sound to fade in
and out.
AM
The range for most AM stations is
greater than for FM, especially at
night. The longer range can cause
station frequencies to interfere with
each other. Static can also occur
when things like storms and power
lines interfere with radio reception.
When this happens, try reducing the
treble on the radio.
Cell Phone Usage
Cell phone usage, such as making
or receiving phone calls, charging,
or just having the phone on may
cause static interference in the
radio. Unplug the phone or turn it off
if this happens.
Radio Reception
Digital audio broadcasting
Digital audio broadcasting (DAB) is
an innovative and universal
broadcasting system.
Advantages of DAB
.
DAB stations are indicated by
the programme name instead of
the broadcasting frequency
.
With DAB, several radio
programmes (services) can be
broadcasted on a single
frequency (ensemble).
.
Besides high-quality digital audio
services, DAB is also able to
transmit programme-associated
data and a multitude of other
data services.
.
As long as a given DAB receiver
can pick up the signal sent out
by a broadcasting station (even
if the signal is very weak), sound
reproduction is ensured.
.
There is no fading (weakening of
the sound that is typical of AM or
FM reception). The DAB signal
is reproduced at a constant
volume.
If the DAB signal is too weak to
be picked up by the receiver,
reception is interrupted
completely. This can be avoided
by activating DAB to DAB
Linking and/or DAB to FM
Linking in the DAB menu (see
below).
.
Interference caused by stations
that are on nearby frequencies
(a phenomenon that is typical of
AM and FM reception) does not
occur with DAB.
.
If the DAB signal is reflected by
natural obstacles or buildings,
the reception quality of DAB is
improved, whereas AM or FM
reception is considerably
impaired in such cases.
.
When DAB reception is enabled,
the FM tuner of the Infotainment
system remains active in the
background and continually
searches for the best receivable
FM stations.
DAB settings
To configure the DAB settings
options, activate the radio function
and then select the DAB waveband.
Select MENU in the interaction
selector bar to display the
DAB menu.
