of the stations currently being received,
not a complete list of all radio frequen-
cies on the currently selected wave-
band.
•If the signal from the currently tuned
station is weak, this may prevent the
radio from updating the list of stations.
If this occurs, press
while the list
of stations is displayed to switch to
manual tuning mode and select a sta-
tion. If the list of stations is no longer
displayed, turn TUNE in either direction
to display the list again and press
.
The list will disappear from the display after
several seconds.
If the station list is no longer displayed, turn
TUNE in either direction and press
on the

keypad on the center console to switch to
manual tuning (or to switch back from manual
tuning to the "list of stations" function).
Manual tuningBy default, the list of stations of the strongest
stations in the area will be displayed when you
turn TUNE (see the preceding section, "List of
stations"). While the list of stations is displayed,
press
on the center console keypad to
switch to manual tuning, which enables you to
select a frequency from the complete list of all
radio frequencies available on the currently
selected waveband. In other words, in manual
tuning mode, turning TUNE one step will
change from e.g., 93.3 to 93.5, etc.).
To manually tune a station:
1.
Press RADIO. Turn TUNE to scroll to the
desired waveband (
AM, FM1, etc.) and
press OK/MENU or the thumb wheel on
the steering wheel keypad to confirm.
2.
Turn TUNE or the thumb wheel to select a
frequency.
NOTE
The radio is initially set to automatically
search for stations in the area in which you
are driving (see the preceding section, "List
of stations").
However, if you have switched to manual
tuning (by pressing
on the keypad on
the center console while the list of stations
is displayed), the radio will remain in manual
tuning mode the next time it is switched on.
To switch back to "list of stations" mode,
turn TUNE one step (to display the full list of
stations) and press
.
Please note that if you press
when the
list of stations is not displayed, this will acti-
vate the INFO function.
Storing preset stationsTen preset stations can be stored for each
waveband (AM, FM1, etc.).
Stored preset stations are selected using the
buttons on the keypad on the center console.
Manually storing preset stations1. Tune to a station (see "Selecting a station"
on page 222).
2. Press and hold one of the number key but-
tons.
> The sound will be muted for several sec-
onds and when it returns, the station hasbeen stored on the number key button
used.

ScanThe function automatically searches the cur-
rent waveband for radio stations. When a sta-
tion is found, it is played for several seconds
before scanning is resumed. While the station
is playing it can be stored as a preset in the
usual way (see "Manually storing preset sta-
tions").

mode only. The main FM channel will be
displayed as, for example, 93.9 WNYC
(Volvo uses the symbol ">" to indicate
there are sub-channels available) The sub-
FM channels will be displayed as 93.9 – 2
WNYC, 93.9 - 3 WNYC, etc.
•Reception coverage area: Due to current
IBOC transmitter power limitations, the
reception coverage area in digital mode is
somewhat more limited than the station's
analogue coverage area. Please be aware
that as with any radio broadcast technol-
ogy, terrain, time of day, foliage level and
building location can have positive or neg-
ative effects on radio reception.
•Analogue to digital/digital to analogue
blending: Analogue to digital blending will
occur as the signal strength reaches a pre-
set threshold in the receiver. This will be
noticeable in fringe areas (areas with weak
reception) and is normal.
NOTE
There may be a noticeable difference in
sound quality when a change from analogue
to digital or digital to analogue occurs, such
as:
•Volume increase or decrease
•Equalizer settings, i.e., Bass/ Midrange/
Treble cut or boost
•Time alignment (Digital program mate-
rial in extreme cases can be as much as
8 seconds behind the analogue). This
will noticeable as a "stuttering" effect.
The above items are dependant on the
broadcaster's equipment settings and do
not indicate a fault in the vehicle's radio
receiver or antenna systems.
Switching HD on or offThe factory setting for HD radio is off. If acti-
vated when driving through areas with weak
HD signals (fringe areas), you may experience
that the radio repeatedly switches between
analogue/digital and digital/analogue recep-
tion. If this happens, it may be desirable to
switch HD off. To do so:
1. Be sure the infotainment system is
switched on and in one of the AM or FM
modes.
2.
Press OK/MENU in the center console
control panel.3.
Turn TUNE and move the marker to
HD
Radio.
4.
Press OK/MENU to turn HD off (the X will
disappear from the box on the display
screen).
This will disable the radio's capability to receive
digital broadcasts but it will continue to func-
tion as a conventional (analogue) AM/FM
receiver. Please note that when HD is switched
off, it will not be possible to tune to sub-chan-
nels (see the following section for a more
detailed explanation of sub-channels).
Repeat steps 2-4 above to reactivate HD (an X
will appear in the box on the display screen).
Please note that this will only switch HD on or
off for the selected waveband (AM, FM1, etc.).
Sub-channels
Example of an HD Radio station with sub-channels

06 Infotainment
Radio

226* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
In many cases, a main HD Radio station (FM
wavebands only) will also have sub-channels
offering additional types of programming or
music.
In such cases, the “-” symbol will be displayed
to the left of the frequency number and a num-
ber will be displayed to the right of the fre-
quency number indicating that the currently
tuned frequency has at least one sub-channel.
Selecting sub-channelsTo listen to a station's sub-channel(s), press
and hold the right arrow key on the center con-
sole or on the steering wheel keypad for
approximately 1 second. To go back to the
main channel, press and hold the left arrow key
on the center console or on the steering wheel
keypad for approximately 1 second. To go to
subchannel 2 (if available), press and hold the
right arrow key on the center console or on the
steering wheel keypad for approximately
1 second.
If you are currently tuned to a frequency's main
channel, pressing and holding the left arrow
key for approximately 1 second will tune to the
next lower radio frequency.
NOTE
•When the radio has gone into HD mode,
it may take several seconds before the
">" symbol (if the current frequency has
any sub-channels) is displayed to the
left of the frequency. Pressing and hold-
ing the arrow keys for approximately
1 second before the main-/sub-channel
icon is displayed will cause the radio to
tune to the next available radio station,
not to the current station's sub-chan-
nels.
•When you are no longer in broadcasting
range of the currently tuned sub-chan-
nel,
No reception will be displayed.
The radio will then be muted and it will
be necessary to tune to or search for a
new radio station.
Sub-channels can also be stored as presets,
see page 223 for information on storing sta-
tions.
If you press a sub-channel's preset button, it
may take up to 6 seconds before the channel
becomes audible. If you press this button while
you are out of digital range of the transmitter,
No reception will be displayed.

Listening to satellite radio
The SiriusXM
E satellite system consists of a
number of high elevation satellites in geosyn-
chronous orbit.
NOTE
•The digital signals from the satellites are
line-of-sight, which means that physical
obstructions such as bridges, tunnels,
etc, may temporarily interfere with sig-
nal reception.
•Avoid any obstructions, such as metal-
