DAB Radio Functions
Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) radio broadcasts digitally via a
network of transmitters. DAB radio provides more stations, more
information and a clearer sound quality.
DAB Ensembles
DAB ensembles are groups of DAB broadcasters that transmit
multiple digital radio stations on a single radio transmission. There are
usually between 6-10 radio stations per ensemble.
Automatic Tuning
Select DAB1 or DAB2 using the AM/FM button. Press the JOYSTICK
right to search for the next available station in the selected ensemble.
At the end of that ensemble, pressing the JOYSTICK right again starts
searching at the start of the next ensemble.
Press the JOYSTICK left to return to the previous station.
If no stations are found press either button again to cancel.
Changing Stations
There are two ways to change a station.
• Turn the TUNING dial to locate another station.
• Press the JOYSTICK (left or right).
Continue until the desired station shows on the DISPLAY. To select
another station, repeat either procedure.
Storing Stations
10 stations can be stored for DAB1 and DAB2 (total of 20 stations).
To store stations:
Tune to the desired station. Press and hold the KEYPAD button (0-9)
where the station is to be stored. The sound will be muted for a
couple of seconds and ‘Station Stored’ will show on the DISPLAY.
Select a stored station by either pressing a KEYPAD (0 to 9) button or
use the SCROLL button to scroll through the station list.
Learn
Learn checks the radio frequencies and automatically repopulates the
station list with all available stations. When the DAB radio finds a
station, it may pause for a few seconds, after which it continues to
check for stations.
Select DAB1 or DAB2 with the AM/FM button.
Select LEARN from the DAB menu. The DISPLAY then shows the
progress status of the check, and once complete the station list is
updated. The first station in the list is then played.
