Default DAB Radio question

Hi - took delivery of a brand new XC60 T5 last week - love the car (amazingly fast). Only down side is that a neighbour scraped the front end 2 days later (I’m in London so have to park on the street).

Anyway, my query is - when playing the DAB radio it doesn’t show the name of the song and artist that is playing on that particular station.

My DAB on my previous car showed that information as does the DAB in our kitchen. Is there something that I need to alter on the set-up.

Best

Adam

Settings > Media > DAB and tick the "Show broadcast information" box.

I think you may then have to cycle the Infotainment Off and On again to make the change visible.

Even so it only scrolls through a couple of times then just shows the beginning of the broadcast information.

The law changed a few years ago to stop scrolling text displays in a motor vehicle , they used to scroll in the older volvos .
