DAB
DAB (Digital Audio Broadcast) is an international standard
for digital radio broadcasts. The availability of DAB stations
and broadcast coverage are very much location and
country specific. Please consult your local broadcast
information for availability.
POSITIONING THE DAB ANTENNA
The DAB reception and performance depends on many
factors, both in the vehicle and other external conditions.
Before you start the antenna installation and/or the product
testing, please make sure that you have a good DAB
coverage and reception.
Important notes:
If your vehicle comes with metalised windscreen(e.g.
windscreen heating) the external antenna is required to
be mounted outside of the car.
The DAB module supports both amplified and non-
amplified aerials. For amplified antennas 12V power is
provided by the DABRADIO receiver via the 2 pin molex
connector. Read the manual of the antenna used
carefully and follow the instructions in order to find the
right place for installation. Always test (read next
chapter) the DAB functions before finalising the
installation.

REMOTE CONTROL FM FREQUENCY SETUP
Manual Scanning
In order to set the FM frequency, you need to follow the
next steps:
Turn the ignition ON,
Press and hold the button for 3 seconds,
Enter the frequency (from 87.6 [876] to 107.9
[1079]),
Press the button to store the valid frequency,
Switch to the selected frequency with your radio.
Automatic Scanning
You can also start an automatic FM frequency scan. To
use this option, you need to do the following:
Turn the ignition ON,
Press and hold the button for 3 seconds,
Press the up arrow button.
After this, the device will be looking for a free frequency
and will set it automatically. This frequency can be found if
you do an FM scan with your radio.
OPERATION
During the first use or if there is no station selected, the
DABRADIO title is shown on the RDS display of the
radio.
First of all, you need to perform a DAB scan which you can
do by pressing the button. During the scan, you should
see DAB SCAN on the display.
If the NOSIGNAL message appears on the radio, that
means there is no DAB reception. In this case, please
check the location and the connection of the areal.
Navigation between stations
By pressing the up and down arrow buttons, you
can skip to the next or previous stations. If you press and
hold these buttons, you can skip in 5 station steps
(alphabetically).
Presets
You can store presets to the - buttons. To store
the actually played station, you need to press and hold one
of the numerical buttons.
After this, you can switch to that station directly by short
pressing the same button.
Auxiliary source
The device gives you the possibility to listen to music from
an external source through a 3,5mm Jack connector. In
order to mute the DAB radio and use the Auxiliary input of
the device, you need to press the button. In this mode,
you should see “AUX IN” in the RDS display.
Pressing the button again reactivates the DAB source.
Please note: The device connected to the auxiliary input
has to be paused separately, using the controls of the
device itself.
Diagnostic
During playback, with the button, you can switch between
the text of the actually played DAB channel and between
the software information of the DABRADIO device and of
the DAB module.
