DAB TUNER OPERATIONS

D

ENGLISH

We recommend that you use DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) tuner KT-DB1500 with your unit. If you have another DAB tuner, consult your JVC IN-CAR ENTERTAINMENT dealer.

Refer also to the Instructions supplied with your DAB tuner.

What is DAB system?

DAB is one of the digital radio broadcasting systems available today. It can deliver CD quality sound without any annoying interference and signal distortion. Furthermore, it can carry text, pictures and data.

In contrast to FM broadcast, where each programme is transmitted on its own frequency, DAB combines several programmes (called “services”) to form one “ensemble.”

In addition, each “service”—called “primary service”—can also be divided into its components (called “secondary service”).

With the DAB tuner connected with this unit, you can enjoy these DAB services.

Note:

When reception switches between DAB and FM, the listening volume level may increase or decrease inconveniently. This change in the volume level results from unequal audio injection levels at broadcaster site, but not from the malfunction of this unit.

To prevent this inconvenience, you can adjust the DAB input level (see page 31).

A typical ensemble has 6 or more programmes (services) broadcast at the same time. After tuning in to an ensemble, you can select a service you want to listen to.
