Radio Reception - Chevrolet Camaro 2018 Manual

14 Radio
RDS Traffic Volume Setting
Traffic alert volume can be adjusted
by turning the volume up or down
while the alert is playing. The
system will store this setting for
future traffic alerts.
If the current source is playing at a
higher volume than the traffic alert
volume setting, the traffic alert will
play back at the current source
volume setting. If the current source
is playing at a lower volume than
the traffic alert volume setting, the
traffic alert will play at the volume
set for traffic.
Once an alert is complete, the
system volume returns to its
previously set level prior to the
traffic alert.
If the traffic alert volume is set to
zero during an alert, the next traffic
alert will play at the minimum
connection volume level.
If stations or sources are switched
during a traffic alert, the current
traffic alert will be cancelled.
If the RDS On/Off option is set to
Off, and the Traffic Programme (TP)
is set to On, a traffic alert will
automatically override the Off
setting and place the RDS mode
to On.
The default station list is sorted by
RDS stations first, in order of signal
strength, and followed by non-RDS
stations grouped at the end of
the list.
Stations that support traffic
programming are marked TP and
show on the right side of the
line item.

Radio Reception

Unplug electronic devices from the
accessory power outlets if there is
interference or static in the radio.
FM
FM signals only extend about 16 to
65 km (10 to 40 mi). Although the
radio has a built-in electronic circuit
that automatically works to reduce
interference, some static can occur,
especially around tall buildings or
hills, causing the sound to fade in
and out.
AM
The range for most AM stations is
greater than for FM, especially at
night. The longer range can cause
station frequencies to interfere with
each other. Static can also occur
when things like storms and power
lines interfere with radio reception.
When this happens, try reducing the
treble on the radio.
Digital Audio
Broadcasting (DAB)
Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) is
a universal broadcast system that
indicates stations by the radio
programme name on the
infotainment display. The DAB
signal produces a constant volume
and is not affected by interference
from nearby frequencies. The
reception quality of DAB improves if
the signal is reflected by natural
obstacles or buildings. If the DAB
signal is unclear, reception is
interrupted completely.
