Notes on radio reception
Manual search
Manual seearch is via buttons J
or M.
By keeping button J or M pressed,
you will be able to scroll through
the waveband. Scrolling will stop
as soon as you release the button.
The radio will remain tuned to the
frequency that is displayed.
Automatic search
Your radio will be subject to certain
phenomena that are not encoun-
tered by domestic systems.
The reception of AM and FM signals
may suffer from interference, which
is caused by the nature and propa-
gation of the signals and does not
reflect on the quality of your radio
installation.
In AM, the reception may be affected
when passing under power lines or
bridges, or when travelling through
tunnels.
In FM mode, the reception may be
affected by the distance from the
station transmitter, the reflecting of
signals off obstacles (mountains,
hills, tower blocks) and radio blacks-
pots (no coverage from the station
transmitter).
A short press on one of the buttons
K or N will tune into higher or lower
radio stations respectively, within
the chosen waveband.
By keeping button K or N pressed,
you will be able to scroll through the
waveband. The scrolling will stop at
the first station it finds once the but-
ton is released.
You can also do this by means of
control 2 at the steering wheel.
If the automatic search is unable to
tune into a known frequency (per-
haps owing to very weak reception),
it is possible to search manually to
find this station.
Tuning sensitivity
Automatic searches can be carried
out according to two levels of sen-
sitivity :
- To capture the most powerful
transmitters, choose the local
search mode “LO” (default
option).
- To capture the weakest or most
distant transmitters, choose the
sensitive search mode “DX”.
Search for a station is done first in
“LO” (local) sensitivity, then in “DX”
(distant) sensitivity.
