volume control in the menu system.
External audio source volumeExternal devices such as an MP3 player can be
connected to the AUX input, see page 134. The
volume of the external sound source AUX may
be different from the volume of the internal
sound sources such as the CD player or the
radio. Before connecting an external device, it
may be advisable to adjust the device to
approximately 2/3 of its maximum volume. If
the external sound source\fs volume is too high,
the quality of the sound may be impaired. To
help prevent this, adjust the input volume of the
external audio source:
1. Set the audio system in AUX mode using MODE and use (4) to navigate to Volume,
AUX input.
2. Turn the control (3) or press / the nav-
igation button. G031440

Introduction Display when the radio is receiving an HD Radio
broadcast
Digital HD Radio broadcasts are available in
many areas of the United States. HD Radio
reception is available for both AM and FM
wavebands and provides improved sound
quality. Certain FM frequencies also offer
greater listening choices through “multicast-
ing” (sub-channels) on a given frequency.
When you have tuned to an HD Radio station,
the
symbol will appear in the lower left
corner of the audio system display. However, radio reception will remain analog (“normal”
reception) if you are not within digital range of
a station\fs transmitter. Digital range is slightly
shorter than the station\fs total range. When you
are within digital range of the transmitter, the
radio will automatically switch from analog to
digital reception and ">" will appear to the right
of the station\fs name (see the illustration).
Sound quality improves and in certain cases,
there may be more than one station available
on the same frequency (sub-channels).
NOTE
There will be a slight delay in analog recep-
tion before the radio switches over to digital.
When listening to a main HD Radio station,
digital reception will continue until you have
driven out of range of the digital transmitter.
The radio will then return to analog reception
and will continue to receive programming on
the selected frequency until you have driven
completely out of range of that particular sta-
tion.

Sub-channels Example of an HD Radio station with sub-channels
In many cases, a main HD Radio station (FM
wavebands only) will also have sub-channels
offering additional types of programming or
music.
In such cases, the “>” symbol will be displayed
to the left of the frequency number and a num-
ber will be displayed to the right of the fre-
quency number indicating that the currently
tuned frequency has at least one sub-channel.
The "2" in the illustration indicates that you are
currently listening to the first sub-channel on
frequency 93.9.
Selecting sub-channelsTo listen to a frequency\fs sub-channel(s), press
the left or right arrow keys (see the illustration
on page 138). If you are currently tuned to a frequency\fs main channel, pressing the left
arrow key will tune to the next lower radio fre-
quency.
NOTE
\b
When the radio has gone into HD mode,
it may take several seconds before a
number (if the current frequency has
any sub-channels) is displayed to the
right of the frequency. Pressing the
arrow keys before the number is dis-
played will cause the radio to tune to the
next available radio station, not to the
current station\fs sub-channels.
\b When you are no longer in broadcasting
range of the current
sub-channel, No
HD reception will be displayed. It will
then be necessary to tune to or search
for a new radio station. Sub-channels can also be stored as pre-
sets,See page 138 for information on storing
stations.
Once a sub-channel has been stored on a pre-
set button, if you press this button while you
are out of digital range of the transmitter,
No
HD reception will be displayed. Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) -
Canadian models only
IntroductionDigital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) is a digital
radio broadcasting system.
NOTE
This system does not support DAB+.
Service and Ensemble
\b
Service - Radio stations (only audio serv-
ices are supported by the system).
\b Ensemble - a collection of radio stations
that are broadcast on the same frequency.
Ensemble learnWhen you drive into a new broadcasting area,
the system can learn (store) the existing groups
of channels in the area.
Learning (storing) a group of channels creates
an updated list of all available groups of chan-
nels. This list is not updated automatically.
Learning is done by using the menu selection
Ensemble learn or can be done directly by
pressing and holding the
AUTO button. It may
take up to one minute to learn a group of chan-
nels if both Band III and LBand have been
selected.

Wavebands
DAB is broadcast on two wavebands
6
: Band
III and LBand
\b Band III 7
- nationwide
\b LBand – broadcasting primarily in metro-
politan areas
By selecting Band III only, learning channels
will take less time than if both Band III and
LBand are selected. It may not be possible to
find all ensembles (groups of stations). The
choice of waveband does not affect learned
(stored) ensembles.
Navigating via lists
\b Ensemble list – shows groups of channels
that the radio receiver has acquired
through the learn function.
\b Service list – shows channels regardless
which group of channels that they are in.
The list can also be filtered using the DAB
PTY function (see below).
\b Subchannel list – shows subchannels
that may be available on the selected
channel.
The lists can be accessed via the menu.
Groups of channels can also be accessed by
pressing ENTER.

Sirius satellite radio*
Listening to satellite radioThe Sirius satellite system consists of a number
of high elevation satellites that orbit over North
America. They are supplemented by a number
of ground repeaters that enhance radio cover-
age in urban areas.
NOTE \b
The digital signals from the Sirius satel-
lites are line-of-sight, which means that
physical obstructions such as bridges,
tunnels, etc, may temporarily interfere
with signal reception.
\b Avoid any obstructions, such as metal-
lic objects transported on roof racks or
in a ski box, or other antennas that may
impede signals from the SIRIUS satel-
lites.
