Select: RADIO button > right control button > Radio settings.
Depending on the waveband setting (FM, AM or DAB*), you can select the following functions:
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 FM or DAB* waveband, the system will automatically (in the background) switch to an alternative station, if there is one available.
off: Switching to an alternative frequency is switched off. 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.
Switch regional stations (FM)
1)
Important: The Alternative frequency function must be switched on.
Some FM stations split up their transmission and provide different regions with regional programmes with differing content. When the function is on
, the system switches to alternative region-specific frequencies.
L band (DAB*)
1)
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.
Station sorting (FM)
A-Z: The stations are displayed in the station list in alphabetical order. Radio stations with variable station names are displayed after the stations which have been sorted alphabetically. Radio stations with a frequency as their station name are displayed at the end of the list.
ID: The stations in the station list are sorted according to the station s ID (e.g. all BBC radio stations are sorted together). Radio stations with a frequency as their station name are displayed at the end of the list.
Station sorting (DAB*)
1)
A-Z: The stations are displayed in the station list in alphabetical order.
Ensemble: Ensembles comprise various radio stations of a specific area (e.g. a town or region); they are listed together as an ensemble in the station list. To open/close the list of radio stations in an ensemble, select and confirm the ensemble. Available sub-programmes* (additional services provided by DAB* radio stations) are listed beneath the radio station (indented).
