Radio operation

General information

The R 2500 R features an FM Tuner (VHF radio) with HD Radio™ technology*, a DAB / DAB+ reception sec-
tion (digital radio) and also includes the facility to stream Internet radio. The following section describes in
detail how to operate the individual radio sources.
HD Radio technology enables radio stations to transmit analogue and digital programmes on the same
frequency simultaneously.
The integral DAB+ receiving section is backwards-compatible with DAB, to ensure that you have access to
a wide range of stations.

ing the SOURCE knob on the front panel of the R 2500 R. Confirm your selection with a short
