DAB tuning

Model For

U.K., Europe, and Australia

Before listening to DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) radio, perform an initial scan to automatically register DAB radio stations.

When the initial scan finishes, the product automatically tunes to the first DAB radio station in frequency order.

NOTE

DAB uses digital signals to provide clearer audio and more stable reception compared to analog signals. This product also supports DAB+. DAB+ is an upgraded version of DAB and supports stations that use the MPEG-4 HE-AAC v2 audio codec, which provides a more efficient transmission method.

Because not all regions are covered yet, be sure to check DAB coverage in your area. For nationwide DAB status and a list of DAB frequencies worldwide, visit WorldDAB Online at http://www.worlddab.org/.

If the initial scan does not find any DAB radio stations, the front display switches to the initial scan menu. Press the BAND key again to start the initial scan.

You can check the signal strength of each DAB channel label. From the OPTION menu, select “Tune AID”, and then select the desired DAB channel label. The signal strength of the DAB channel label is shown from 0 (none) to 100 (best).

If you run the initial scan again after registering several DAB stations, the current DAB stations registered to the preset numbers will be cleared.

You can also perform the initial scan from “Init Scan” > “Init Scan” in the OPTION menu.
