Se-l Nav DAB radio
« on: January 09, 2018, 08:40:51 am »
Hi All,

I’ve just purchased a 2015 SE-L nav which was advertised as having DAB Radio. I can’t figure out where this is in the entertainment system. I can only see FM and AM. Can anyone help?

Thanks

You will need to "turn it on". There is a description of the steps in the manual:

It is at page 463/760 section 5-58.

Thank you for the reply. I’m still having issues, is the DAB only available on certain models? My entertainment system looks different to the pictures in the link to the manual posted on this thread.

I think for the first models up to a certain update, there was no DAB to all versions while now there is. If you cannot find your version in the manual, maybe the dealer could help you with that. The manual is the latest version there is online and there is a good case you have one of the last pre-facelift versions without the DAB.

Does your stereo have:
Knobs on the front of it, with the commander control down at the handbrake but not a volume knob next to it?
Or a full touch screen without knobs on it, and a volume knob down next to the commander control?

The stereo has knobs on it with commander control by the handbrake without a volume knob.

Then your car is the pre-facelift model and it didn't come with DAB.  You have the NB1 stereo if you want to dig around for more info.

Thanks for the help in clearing that up for me. Shame they choose to advertise it as having DAB but no big deal.

You are lucky if you have the NB1 satnav as that works well, and the sat nav in the 2018 version use a MAP from HERE and the system is lacking in many ways
I love to drive my car but has too many issues
