Radio Reception with DAB
The D-FIRE 01, used in conjunction with the
Blaupunkt car radios STOCKHOLM RCM
128, SYDNEY RCM 128 and TORONTO
RDM 128, enables you to receive DAB
(Digital Audio Broadcasting).
With DAB, you can enjoy radio in digital
sound quality.
Unlike conventional radio, DAB always
transmits several programmes on a single
frequency. These programmes are grouped
to form so-called “ensembles”, one ensemble always consisting of several, usually six,
programmes. At the same time, one programme can also include up to 12 subprogrammes. A sports station, for example,
could broadcast subprogrammes about different sporting events at one and the same
time.
Other advantages DAB has to offer are:
NEWS and WEATHER:
Regular NEWS and WEATHER bulletins are
also broadcast in addition to the traffic announcements. You can have these announcements put through, i.e. when the
function is active, announcements received
by the D-FIRE 01 will be heard even when
the radio system is in cassette or CD mode.
The cassette or CD will be interrupted for
the duration of the announcement and play
resumed at the end of it. Traffic announcements are broadcast at the volume set for
traffic announcements (TA VOL).
Please consult your car radio manual for
details of how to adjust TA COL.
DAB-Regional (REG):
Since DAB frequencies are broadcast
across an extensive area of the country, you
may find that you are receiving traffic announcements irrelevant to the region in
which you are currently travelling. In order
to avoid this, the DAB transmission areas
are subdivided into regions. If you wish to
receive announcements for a specific region, select REG ALL. If you wish to hear
only supraregional announcements, please
select REG NONE.
Dynamic Range Control (DRC):
Some radio stations transmit not only their
own programme but also information which
enables your D-FIRE 01 to adjust the volume in your car to suit the programme received. This makes it possible, for example
when classical music is playing, to raise the
volume of quiet passages so that they can
also be heard in the car.
This sound adjustment depends upon the
information transmitted by the radio stations
and is only possible if the information is supplied. If you would like sound adjustment,
please select DRC = ON, if not, DRC = OFF.
The NEWS, WEATHER, REG and DRC
settings are selected in the DSC menu of
your car radio. Please consult your car radio instructions for details of how to find the
DSC menu and make adjustments.
NB: As the D-FIRE 01 is operated solely via
the car radio, please also read the car radio
instructions carefully when you wish to use
your D-FIRE 01.

Important Notes
Operating Instructions
What you should not fail to read
Before switching on your car radio, please
read the following notes carefully.
Road Safety
Road safety is paramount, so you should
always ensure that your car radio does not
impair your ability to respond to any given
traffic situation. We advise you not to use
the radio in critical situations.
You should always be able to hear police or
fire service warning signals, for example,
clearly and in good time.
Please therefore only listen to your selected programme at a reasonable volume when
driving.
Danger: As there is no background
noise with DAB, the radio remains
silent when in the search mode. To
avoid the driver being shocked when reception begins, the volume cannot be raised at
the car radio during the search run. If you
have a remote control, on no account should
you use it to raise the volume in such a case.
Installation
Before installing or extending the system
yourself, please read the installation and
connecting instructions at the end of the
operating instructions.
