About HD Radio
NOTE
- HD Radio Technology is a hybrid
broadcasting system that employs digital
and analog signals.
- When the vehicle moves outside the
digital broadcasting area (that is narrower
than the analog broadcasting
area due to the FCC output requirements),
the radio reception automatically
changes from the digital signal to
the analog signal. When the vehicle
reenters the digital broadcasting area
again, the radio reception automatically
changes from the analog signal to the
digital signal. When in a digital mode
the Logo will be in orange on
the
radio display.
- Depending on the broadcasting station, a condition such as a sound delay, echo effect or skipping sound may occur. However, this does not indicate a malfunction.
- Depending on the broadcasting area, the digital signal may not be received in an area where the analog signal can be properly received, or the system frequently switches the channels between the digital and analog signals. However, this does not indicate a malfunction. If this frequent switching between digital and analog causes annoyance, set the radio to the analog mode (HD Radio off mode) that provides the same radio broadcasting quality as a conventional radio.
