Press RADIO. Continue pressing this but-
ton to toggle to the desired waveband
(
AM, FM1, etc.).
2. Release the button and wait several sec-
onds or press OK/MENU.

the next available station.
List of stations (in wavebands FM1/FM2
only)
The radio automatically compiles a list of the
strongest FM stations whose signals are cur-
rently being received. This enables you to find
stations when driving in areas where radio sta-
tions and their frequencies are unfamiliar.
To access this list:
1.
Select the desired waveband (
FM1 orFM2).
2.
Turn TUNE one step in either direction.
This displays the list of stations in the area.
The currently tuned station will be indi-
cated in the list by magnified text.
3.
Turn TUNE again in either direction to
select a station on the list.
NOTE
•This list will only display the frequencies
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
number key pad 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,

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.
The "2" in the illustration indicates that you are
currently listening to the first sub-channel on
frequency 93.9.
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 215 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 HD reception will be displayed.
Sirius satellite radio*
Listening to satellite radioThe Sirius satellite system consists of a number
of high elevation satellites in geosynchronous
orbit.
NOTE
•The digital signals from the Sirius satel-
lites are line-of-sight, which means that
physical obstructions such as bridges,
tunnels, etc, may temporarily interfere
with signal reception.
•Avoid any obstructions, such as metal-
lic objects transported on roof racks or
in a ski box, or other antennas that may
impede signals from the SIRIUS satel-
lites.

versions of these standards are used, cer-
tain features (e.g., scan or random) may not
function.
Not all cell phones or media players are fully
compatible with the vehicle's Bluetooth sys-
tem. A list of compatible devices is available
at you Volvo retailer or at www.volvo-
