Automatic change from DAB to FM
In the event of bad DAB reception, the device tries to find an FM station.
The station name is followed by ( ) while the station is being received on the
FM band. When the corresponding DAB station is received again, the system
automatically switches from FM to DAB.
If a DAB station is also not available in the FM band due to poor reception, In-
fotainment will be switched to mute.
L-band
For the DAB radio reception in different countries, different broadcasting rang-
es are used. In some countries the DAB radio reception is only possible in the
what is known as the L-band.
If no L-band DAB radio reception is possible in the country then we recom-
mend turning off the L-band. The channel scan is therefore faster.
