With the introduction of DAB radio, listening to your favourite radio station became an even more enjoyable experience, with crystal clear digital sound and simple one-click tuning.
If you’d like to know how to tune DAB radio fitted to your Lexus, then please view the video below or read on for a step-by-step guide.
- Begin by ensuring that your Lexus is running or in ‘ACCESSORY’ mode, with the multimedia system switched on.
- Access the audio control screen by pressing the ‘RADIO’ button on the centre console or press ‘MENU’ and use the Remote Touch controller to select ‘AUDIO’.
- Using the Remote Touch controller, select ‘SOURCE’ > ‘DAB’.
- Scroll through the available stations using the arrow buttons on the control panel or on the steering wheel.
- To save your favourite station as a preset, select ‘PRESETS’ and long-press the Remote Touch controller on one of the six preset slots. A beep confirms that the preset is saved.
- Lexus DAB radios also allow you to rewind, fast-forward or replay digital radio broadcasts – customise this feature to your requirements by selecting the ‘Time Shift’ option on the main ‘DAB’ screen.

Hi,
I have a 2021 NX Premium Sports Edition with DAB radio. The signal on DAB keeps cutting out for no apparent reason and shows “No Signal”. It happens so frequently that I have to revert to MW. It is extremely annoying and frustrating and I find this to be unacceptable with a premium car. I have had DAB for several years in my previous vehicles and never had this problem driving my regular routes as I do now. How can this be rectified, please?

I have just bought a Lexus 200h S, AX17***.
I have 2 issues, the first and most important is the sat nav screen at night. My last 200h Luxury, the screen changed to night mode with a dark background. My new cars screen stays white and is vey distracting. I have checked the settings and cannot find any why to change this.
Secondly, the DAB radio will only find BBC radio channels which I am not happy with as my last car had a wide range of chooses. I have tried resetting channel in a number of different locations within a 200 mile range.
Any help with these issues would be most appreciated.
