CHECK DTV RECEPTION (OPERATION CHECK)
Enter the "DTV reception check" screen. Refer to Check Digital Television Reception in Operation Check.
Tech Tips
As digital TV is a terrestrial broadcast, the digital TV antenna cannot receive the signal in places where the signal may not reach the vehicle, such as mountains or tunnels.
Even in areas where digital TV broadcasts for households can be received, the in-vehicle digital TV may not be able to receive the broadcast.
Check the digital TV tuner reception level.
Tech Tips
Do not depend solely on the reception level as a reference value as it may vary depending on signal conditions such as wave interference.
If the result changes after turning the vehicle around, it is not due to a malfunction, but is caused by a local weak electric field.
