Features of receiving radio signals

A car radio is affected by many external factors that are not present when the receiver is permanently installed in the house. Reception of radio signals with amplitude and frequency modulation, respectively LW/MW and FM, is associated with interference, which depends on the reception conditions and the type of signal, but not on the quality of the radio receiver.

Quality of reception of a radio signal with amplitude modulation (LW/MW) worsened when the vehicle is driven near high-voltage power lines, under bridges, or in tunnels.

FM radio signals (FM) can be severely distorted due to excessive remoteness of the radio transmitter, due to reflections from various obstacles (mountains, hills, buildings, etc.). Interference with radio reception can also occur in radio shade areas (areas closed from the radio transmitter).

Switching to radio mode

Car radio RВЗ: successively press the button «SRC».

Car radio RD3: press the button «R».

Frequency range selection

Car radio RВЗ: by briefly pressing the button «BNDIAST» you can select the desired band: FM1, FM2, FMast or AM.

Briefly press one of the buttons «I» or «J» to tune in to the next or previous station, respectively.

By long pressing the corresponding button, the frequency will change continuously in the selected direction.

After releasing the button, the search will continue and stop after tuning to the nearest station. If the TA traffic program is selected, the radio will only search for stations broadcasting this type of information. Automatic station search occurs with sensitivity «LO» (tuning is done only on the most powerful radio transmitters), until the entire range has been covered, and then the search is repeated with sensitivity «DX» (tuning is performed on weaker and more distant radio transmitters).

In order to immediately adjust the sensitivity «DX», press the button twice «I» or «J».

Manual station search mode

Click on the button «MAN».

Briefly press the buttons «I» or «J» respectively to increase or decrease by a certain step of the tuning frequency.

By pressing and holding these buttons, the radio will continuously change the tuning frequency in the selected direction.

The frequency change will stop when the button is released.

New button press «MAN» allows you to return to automatic station search mode.

Manual station storage

Tune to the desired station.

If it was not possible to find all six stations for entering into the memory of the car radio, the remaining memory cells will remain free.

Recalling preset stations

Briefly press one of the buttons «1» — «6» to call the corresponding station stored in the memory in each frequency band.

Using the RDS function (radio data systems) in the FM band

The RDS system allows, when tuned to a specific station, to ensure the best quality of radio signal reception by automatically switching to other transmitters located along the vehicle's route that operate in the RDS standard and transmit the same radio program on other frequencies.
