Allows you to choose which categories you
would like to receive DAB
Announcements for.
DAB-DAB Linking
When on and a DAB radio station's signal
becomes weak, the radio can tune to the
same station on a different DAB ensemble if
it's available.
DAB-FM Linking
When on and a DAB radio station's signal
becomes weak, the radio will try tuning to
the station's FM variant. If DAB-DAB Linking

Radio Data System (RDS)
RDS relies on receiving specific RDS
information from radio stations and only
works when the information is available.
It is possible that a radio station could
broadcast information that causes the radio
to work improperly.
In addition, RDS features are region and
country of sale specific. This means specific
RDS content may not be available in your
listening area or in the country you operate
the vehicle.
To turn RDS features on or off, see "Audio
Settings" previously.

However, the reception quality of DAB can
be reduced if the signal is blocked by
natural obstacles or buildings. If the DAB
signal is unclear, reception is interrupted
completely.
