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, a number will be displayed to
the right of the frequency 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-channels
To listen to a station's sub-channel(s), press
the right arrow key on the center console or
on the steering wheel keypad. To go back to
the main channel, press the left arrow key. To
go to subchannel 2 (if available), press the
right arrow key.
If you are currently tuned to a frequency's
main channel, pressing the left arrow key 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 right of the frequency.
Pressing the arrow keys before the
number is displayed will cause the
radio to tune to the next available radio
station, not to the current station's
sub-channels.
•
When you are no longer in broadcast-
ing range of the currently tuned sub-
channel,
No HD 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 258 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 trans-
mitter,
No HD reception will be displayed.
