Delete stored stations
Important: A station must be stored in the memory list Link.
You can delete stored stations individually or all at once.
Alternative frequency (FM, DAB*)1)
- on: The tuner attempts to switch to an alternative frequency of the current station when the reception quality becomes weaker. When the reception is lost in the DAB* waveband, the system will automatically switch to an alternative station in the FM waveband, if there is one available.
- off: The tuner will not switch to alternative frequencies in the FM waveband. The current frequency will be maintained, and in some cases may no longer be received. The Alternative frequency function is automatically switched on again when the station is changed. When the DAB waveband is set, the tuner will not switch to alternative stations in the FM waveband.
L band (DAB)*
There are two wavebands for the digital radio: Band III and L band. Ensembles in the band III usually have a larger range extending into several regions. They can be received at all times. In some regions DAB is broadcast in the L band. When this option is on, stations from the L band will also be received.
Note
If the Traffic programme function is switched on, playback is interrupted for announcements. You can cancel an announcement while it is being played by briefly pressing the ON/OFF button.
