models only)1
Introduction
Display when the radio is receiving an HD Radio
broadcast
HD radio is a brand name registered by the
Ibiquity digital corporation2. They are the
developer of a broadcasting technology called
IBOC or In Band On Channel, which refers to
the method of transmitting a digital radio
broadcast signal centered on the same fre-
quency as the AM or FM station's present fre-
quency.The IBOC system is referred to as a "hybrid"
since it is both analogue and digital. During
hybrid operation, receivers still continue to
receive the analogue (non-digital) signal. HD
radio receivers incorporate both modes of
reception, where the receiver will automatically
switch to the analogue signal if the digital signal
cannot be decoded or is lost by the receiver.
When you have tuned to an HD Radio station,
the
symbol will appear in the audio sys-
tem display.
More information about HD radio and IBOC
can be found on Ibiquity's website,
www.hdradio.com and www.ibiquity.com.
Benefits of digital broadcasting
•Better sound (FM sounds near CD quality
and AM as analogue FM).
•Some FM frequencies offer a greater num-
ber of listening choices through “multicast-
ing” (consisting of a frequency's main
channel and any sub-channels that may
also be available on that particular fre-
quency. See also the section "Sub-chan-
nels" below).
•When receiving a digital signal there is no
multipath disturbance or hisses/pops/
crackling due to outside influences.
How HD broadcasting worksHD Radio works similarly to conventional radio
and broadcasts of this type are available in
many areas of the United States. However,
there are a few key differences:
•Instead of transmitting one analogue sig-
nal, stations send out a bundled signal –
both analogue and digital.
•An HD radio receiver can receive both dig-
ital and analogue broadcasts. Depending
on the terrain and location of the vehicle
(which will influence the signal strength),
the receiver will determine which signal to
receive.
Limitations
•Main channel vs. sub-channels (FM
only): The main channel is the only channel
that can receive in hybrid mode (both dig-
ital and analogue). If a frequency has sub-
channels, they are broadcast in digital
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

ENTER to play a selected folder or a file.
When the music file has been played, the
player will continue to play the rest of the files
in the current folder. When all of the files in the
folder have been played, the player will auto-
matically go to the next folder and play the files
in it.

tion control if the entire name of the current
track does not fit in the display.

equipment used.
•DualDisc: The audio side of a DualDisc
(combined CD/DVD) does not meet CD
specifications and may not play in your
audio system.
•Keep the discs clean. Wipe them with a
soft, clean, lint-free cloth, working from the
center outward. If necessary, dampen the
cloth with a neutral soap solution. Dry thor-
oughly before using.

•Never use cleaning spray or antistatic liq-
uid. Use only cleaners specifically made for

plastic outer rings on the disc.
•Condensation may occur on discs/optical
components of the changer in cold winter

clean, lint-free cloth. Optical components
in the CD changer may, however, take up
to one hour to dry off.
•Never attempt to play a damaged CD.
•When not in use, the discs should be
stored in their covers. Avoid storing discs
in excessive heat, direct sunlight or in
dusty locations.
