DAB tuner operations
What is DAB system?
Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) can deliver
digital quality sound without any annoying
ENGLISH
interference and signal distortion. Furthermore,
it can carry text, pictures, and data. When
transmitting, DAB combines several
programmes (called “services”) to form one
“ensemble.” In addition, each “service”—called
“primary service”—can also be divided into its
components (called “secondary service”). A
typical ensemble has six or more programmes
(services) broadcast at the same time.
By connecting the DAB tuner, this unit can do
the following:
• Tracing the same programme automatically
—Alternative Frequency Reception (see
“DAB AF” on page 15).
It is recommended to use DAB tuner
KT-DB1000 with your unit. If you have
another DAB tuner, consult your JVC
IN-CAR ENTERTAINMENT dealer.
• Refer also to the Instructions supplied for
your DAB tuner.
⁄ Select a service (either primary or
secondary) to listen to.
To tune in to an ensemble manually
Start searching for an ensemble, as in step ! on
the left column.

If the selected primary service has some
secondary services, pressing the same
button again will tune in to the secondary
services.
Tracing the same programme—
Alternative Frequency Reception
You can keep listening to the same programme
by activating the Alternative Frequency
Reception.
• While receiving a DAB service:
When driving in an area where a service
cannot be received, this unit automatically
tunes in to another ensemble or FM RDS
station, broadcasting the same programme.
• While receiving an FM RDS station:
When driving in an area where a DAB service
is broadcasting the same programme as the
FM RDS station is broadcasting, this unit
automatically tunes in to the DAB service.
This unit is ready for operating an Apple iPod
or a JVC D. player from the control panel.
Before operating your iPod or D. player:
Connect either one of the following (separately
purchased) to the CD changer jack on the rear
of this unit.
• Interface adapter for iPod
controlling an iPod.
• D. player interface adapter—KS-PD500 for
controlling a D. player.
• For connection, see Installation/Connection
Manual (separate volume).
• For details, refer also to the manual supplied
with the interface adapter.
