What you can do more with DAB
With the DAB tuner connected, you can use the following convenient functions.
• Tracing the same program (service) automatically while driving where the same DAB
ensemble is not received
• Road Traffic Flash Standby Reception
• Standby Reception of 9 types of Announcement signals
• PTY Standby Reception
• PTY search
Tracing the same program automatically (Alternative
Reception)
You can keep listening to the same program
• While receiving a DAB service:
When driving in an area where a service cannot be received, this unit automatically tune in
another ensemble or FM RDS station, broadcasting the same program.
• While receiving an FM RDS station:
When driving in an area where a service is broadcasting the same program, this unit
automatically tune into the ensemble. (See also page 10.)
Note:
When reception switches between DAB and FM, the listening volume level may increase or decrease
inconveniently. This change in the volume level results from unequal audio injection levels at broadcaster
site, but not from the malfunction of this unit.
