RADIO Notes on radio reception
Your car radio is subject to phenomena which do not affect domestic radio sets. Both AM (MW/LW) and FM reception are
subject to various forms of interference. This is no reflection on the quality of the equipment, but is due to the nature of the signalsand the way in which they are transmitted.
On MW/LW, interference may be noticed when passing under high voltage power lines or bridges, or in tunnels.
On FM, interference may be the result of increasing distance from the transmitter, deflection of the signals by obstacles
(mountains, hills, buildings, etc.), or of being in an area which is not covered by a transmitter. Selecting radio modeAudio RB3 :press button "SRC"several times in succession.

Searching for a station occurs first in "LO"sensitivity (selection of the most powerful transmitters) during scanning of the
waveband, then in "DX"sensitivity (selection of the weakest and most distant transmitters).
