What you can do more with DAB
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 DAB service
cannot be received, this unit automatically
tunes in to another ensemble or FM RDS
station, broadcasting the same program.
• While receiving an FM RDS station:
When driving in an area where a DAB service
is broadcasting the same program as the FM
RDS station, this unit automatically tunes in to
the DAB service.
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.
To use Alternative Reception
When shipped from the factory, Alternative
Reception is activated.
