FM reception). The DAB signal isreproduced at a constant volume.If the DAB signal is too weak to bepicked up by the receiver, receptionis interrupted completely. This canbe avoided by activating DAB toDAB Linking and/or DAB to FMLinking in the DAB option menu(see below).

■ Interference caused by stationsthat are on nearby frequencies (aphenomenon that is typical of AMand FM reception) does not occurwith DAB.

■ If the DAB signal is reflected bynatural obstacles or buildings, thereception quality of DAB isimproved, whereas AM or FMreception is considerably impairedin such cases.

■ When DAB reception is enabled,the FM tuner of the Infotainmentsystem remains active in thebackground and continuallysearches for the best receivable FMstations. If TP 3 118 is activated,traffic announcements of the FMstation which is currently best
