The device allows analogue radio reception of FM and AM frequency ranges as
well as DAB digital radio reception.
The radio reception DAB allows multiple stations to be transmitted in a single
frequency in the form of a so-called ensemble. It also allows for the transmis-
sion of additional data and information (e.g. messages, sport, weather, warn-
ings, etc.).
CAUTION
■ Car parks, tunnels, tall buildings or mountains can disrupt the radio signal
even causing it to fail completely.■
For vehicles with window antennas; if the windows are covered in foil or with
metallic film stickers, reception interference may be experienced.
■
In countries where the RDS function is not supported sufficiently, we recom-
mend turning off the RDS and AF functions. Otherwise, these settings can af-
fect the functionality of the radio.
