8. DAB/DAB+ radio
The DAB radio mode receives DAB/DAB+ digital radio and displays information about the stations.
To switch to DAB mode, press
For the best playback quality, the antenna must be aligned in such a way that the highest signal
strength and thus the best sound quality are achieved. The icon at the top left of the display shows
the strength of the received transmission signal.
8.1. Scanning for stations
The first time you select the DAB radio mode the DR 490 automatically performs a full scan to see
what stations are available.
Once the scan is complete, the radio shows a list of available stations. If you want to perform
another DAB station search later, press the ◄ button twice. If you want to overwrite the old station
list, select Yes. Select No to add new stations to the old station list or ESC to not perform the search.
8.2. Searching for and selecting stations
To switch to the next/previous station, press ▲/▼ on the remote control during music playback.
Alternatively, you can go to the complete station list with ◄. Here you can see an overview of all
available stations and select a desired station.
