Clare1986 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Afternoon everyone. My first post, so please be gentle! I picked up a 15 plate Titanium X today, all very nice :) So I'm trying to configure all the toys and get as far as the Sony DAB radio.........now I have a DAB radio in the house and so I know there are quite a few channels available. But this is the first car I've had with the functionality and the manual is sadly lacking; all I see are "Block 5A" in each of the presets. How do I actually get channels? I tried pressing "service" which then tells me it's searching for channels but it comes back with nothing. Any pointers? Thanks in advance xx :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillyallan Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I'm sure one of the buttons was manual. Move it to another block and scan. Store ones you like then move to another block and repeat. There's probably an easier way but think i done it like this. It probably tells you in the manual but then who reads that lol From memory I think most are around block 11 and 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the manual has jack to say about DAB?! God bless technology eh? Thanks for your words :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillyallan Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 When you find a station hold down say button 1 to store. Next station hold 2, etc. If you still struggle ill have a go at it next time I'm in car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paramanic Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 To scan for radios if you press the fast forward button one it manually moves one station if you hold it down it scans a think lol been a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianincheshire Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I'm sure all of the presets are 5A? How do I get them somewhere else? You need to keep pressing the seek(fast forward) button, once it's run out of stations on each block(ensemble) it goes to the next block. BTW you can download a manual that does have some information on DAB ( page 233 of the latest 12/1/2015 onwards manual ) from here http://www.ford.co.uk/OwnerServices/Owners-Manual?selectedYear=2015&selectedModel=Fiesta+%282012%29 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clare1986 Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 Thanks for all the replies; managed to get there in the end, everything seems to be in 11 in this area! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillyallan Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 You'd think dab would make it easier to find stations but I remember that we'll trying to figure it out. Glad you got it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
