When you select: You can:
TuneGo up and down the frequency in individual
increments.
If the current station has multiple digital
broadcasts, the multicast indicator appears.
Press Tune repeatedly to advance through all
available broadcasts. If you are on the last
broadcast channel, press to advance to the
next frequency on the band.
Set PTY/AllSelect a category of music you would like to
search for and then choose to either seek or
scan for the stations.
Note:The system scans the frequency band
three times for the chosen program type. If
the program type is unavailable in your
reception range, the system returns to the
previous station.
MulticastAllows you to choose which HD radio
broadcast you would like to receive. When HD
Radio broadcasts are available, this button
appears if the selected station has more than
one digital broadcast. HD1 signifies the main
programming status and is available in analog
and digital broadcasts. Any additional
multicast stations (HD2 through HD7) are
digitally broadcast and can be accessed by
pressing Multicast.
To save a multicast
station as a presetWhen the channel is active on-screen, press
and hold a memory preset slot on the right of
the screen until the sound returns. There is a
brief mute, then the sound returns signifying
it was saved. When recalling an HD2 or HD3
memory preset, there is a mute before the
digital audio is played as the system must
once again acquire the digital signal.
As with any saved radio station, you cannot
access the saved station if your vehicle is
outside the station’s reception area.

HD Radio Reception and Station Troubleshooting
Potential Reception Issues
Reception areaIf you are listening to a multicast station and
you are on the fringe of the reception area,
the station may mute due to weak signal
strength.
If you are listening to HD1, the system
switches back to the analog broadcast until
the digital broadcast is available again.
However, if you are listening to any of the
possible HD2 through HD7 multicast
channels, the station mutes and stays muted
unless it is able to connect to the digital
signal again.
Station blendingWhen a station is first received (aside from
HD2 through HD7 multicast stations), the
system first plays the station in the analog
version and then, if the receiver verifies the
station is an HD Radio station, it shifts to the
digital version. Depending on the station
quality, you may hear a slight sound change
when the station changes from analog to
digital. This shift from analog to digital sound
or digital back to analog, is known as
blending.
In order to provide the best possible experience, a contact form has been
developed to report any station issues found while listening to a station
broadcasting with HD Radio technology. Every station is independently
owned and operated. These stations are responsible for ensuring all
audio streams and data fields are accurate. See the following chart for
potential station issues.
