DAB programme tracking
If a DAB station is a member of several sender groups, when the signal is poor,
the same station is searched in a different sender group.
Auto-change DAB -FM
If the DAB signal is poor, the unit will try to find a corresponding FM station for
the DAB station you are currently listening to.
For auto-change to work, the DAB and FM stations must send a sender ID.
› While the station is being received on the FM band, (
) is displayed after the
station name. The () marker disappears when the relevant DAB station can
be received again 
).
› If a DAB station is also not available in the FM band due to poor reception,
the device will be switched to mute.
› If you do not want automatic station change (e.g. when driving through tun-
nels, when reception may be lost temporarily), you can deactivate this func-
tion.
L-band
For the DAB radio reception in different countries, different frequency ranges
are used. In some countries the DAB radio reception only in the so-called L-
band.
› If you have any problems with the DAB wireless reception it is necessary to
ensure that the DAB Automatic tuning in L-band is on.
› If no L-band DAB radio reception is possible in the country then it is better to
leave this menu item turned off. The channel scan is therefore faster.25Radio
