HD Radio ™reception
HD Radio is a brand name registered by the iBiquity digital corporation 4
. They are the devel-
oper of a broadcasting technology called IBOC or In Band On Channel, which refers to themethod of transmitting a digital radio broadcastsignal centered on the same frequency as theFM station's present frequency.
Introduction

408 The IBOC system is referred to as a "hybrid" since it is both analogue and digital. Duringhybrid operation, receivers still continue toreceive the analogue (non-digital) signal. HDRadio receivers incorporate both modes ofreception, where the receiver will automaticallyswitch to the analogue signal if the digital signalcannot be decoded or is lost by the receiver. When you have tuned to an HD Radio station, the
symbol will appear in the infotainment sys-
tem display. The symbol will be displayed in dif- ferent colors:
• Grayed-out symbol
: NoHD Radio broadcast
reception
• White symbol
: the radio is actively receiving
an HD broadcast
• Orange symbol
: the radio is receiving an
HD broadcast with digital sound
More information about HD Radio and IBOC canbe found on Ibiquity's website, www.hdradio.comand www.ibiquity.com.
Artist Experience ™A radio station's logo and album art can be dis-played. If a station opts to provide this informa-tion, it is broadcast once every 12 minutes, whichmeans that there may be a delay before thelogo/album art appear on the screen. The radiocan store 100 station logos so the next time theradio is tuned to the same station, the logo will be displayed immediately. Album art is synchedwith the artist that you are currently listening to.
iTunes taggingThis feature is common to both HD Radio and SiriusXM
®
Satellite radio *. See the section
"iTunes tagging" in the article "SiriusXM satellite radio settings" for more detailed information.
Ball game modeThis feature means that a main FM station (HD1)will broadcast live events, where the content ofthe programming is more important than soundquality, in analog mode only to help prevent thedelay between analog and digital broadcasting.The HD Radio symbol will be white during livebroadcasts and "Live" will be displayed next tothe symbol.
Benefits of digital broadcasting
• Better sound (FM sounds near CD quality).
• Some FM frequencies offer a greater num- ber of listening choices through “multicast-ing” (consisting of a frequency's main chan-nel and any sub-channels that may also beavailable on that particular frequency.)
• When receiving a digital signal there is nomultipath disturbance or hisses/pops/crack-ling due to outside influences.
How HD Radio
™ Technology
broadcasting works
HD Radio works similarly to conventional radio and broadcasts of this type are available in manyareas of the United States. However, there are afew key differences:
• Instead of transmitting one analogue signal, stations send out a bundled signal – bothanalogue and digital.
• An HD Radio receiver can receive both digi-tal and analogue broadcasts. Depending onthe terrain and location of the vehicle (whichwill influence the signal strength), thereceiver will determine which signal toreceive.

Switching HD Radio on and off The factory setting for HD Radio is off.
Switching HD on or offWhen listening to an HD Radio station and driv- ing through areas with weak HD signals (fringeareas), you may experience that the radio repeat-edly switches between analogue/digital and digi-tal/analogue reception. If this happens, it may bedesirable to switch HD off. To do so:
1. Be sure the infotainment system is switched
on and in FM mode.
2. To access the settings menu from the center display's Home view, pull down Top view and tap
FM radio.
Go to
Adjust settings for media.
3. Tap the or
FM HD Radio box to select/
deselect this function.
This will disable the radio's capability to receive digital broadcasts but it will continue to functionas a conventional (analogue) FM receiver. Pleasenote that when HD is switched off, it will not bepossible to tune to sub-channels (see the article"HD Radio subchannels" for a more detailedexplanation of sub-channels). Please note that this will only switch HD Radio on or off (selecting or deselecting the function)only affects the selected waveband.

HD Radio sub-channels
In many cases, a main HD Radio station (FM wavebands only) will also have sub-channelsoffering additional types of programming ormusic.
Sub-channels
Example of an HD Radio station with sub-channels
If any sub-channels are available, they will listed below the main channel on the screen. In thisexample, "WRIF-FM HD2" is a sub-channel.

Selecting sub-channels
To listen to a station's sub-channel(s), tap the station on the screen or press the forward/backarrow keys on the right-side steering wheel key-pad or below the screen. Sub-channels can also be stored as favorites, see the article "Changing and searching for radio sta-tions". If you tap a sub-channel favorite, it may take up to 6 seconds before the channel becomes audi-
ble. If you tap a station while you are out of digital range of the transmitter,
No reception will be
displayed.

HD Radio limitations
Limitations
•
Main channel vs. sub-channels (FM only)
:
The main channel is the only channel that can receive in hybrid mode (both digital andanalogue). If a frequency has sub-channels,they are broadcast in digital mode only. Themain FM channel will be displayed as, forexample, "WRIF-FM HD1". The sub-FMchannels will be displayed as"WRIF-FMHD2", "WRIF-FM HD3", etc.
• Reception coverage area
: Due to current
IBOC transmitter power limitations, thereception coverage area in digital mode issomewhat more limited than the station'sanalogue coverage area. Please be awarethat as with any radio broadcast technology,terrain, time of day, foliage level and buildinglocation can have positive or negative effectson radio reception.
• Analogue to digital/digital to analogueblending
: Analogue to digital blending will
occur as the signal strength reaches a presetthreshold in the receiver. This will be noticea-ble in fringe areas (areas with weak recep-tion) and is normal.
NOTE
There may be a noticeable difference in sound quality when a change from analogueto digital or digital to analogue occurs, suchas:
• Volume increase or decrease
• Equalizer settings, i.e., Bass/ Midrange/ Treble cut or boost
• Time alignment (Digital program materialin extreme cases can be as much as 8seconds behind the analogue). This willnoticeable as a "stuttering" effect.
The above items are dependant on the broadcaster's equipment settings and donot indicate a fault in the vehicle's radioreceiver or antenna systems .
