Radio operation with RDS (Radio Data System)
REG - regional program
Certain radio programs are split up at times
into regional programs offering local infor-
mation. The 1st program broadcast by NDR,
for example, offers programs with different
contents in the northern states of Germany
Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg and Lower
Saxony at certain times of the day.
If you are listening to a program and want
to continue to listen to that program, it is ad-
visable to switch to REG ON.
If you leave the service area of the regional
program you are tuned into, or if you would
like to take advantage of the full RDS serv-
ice, switch to “REG OFF”.
To switch REG on/off:
• Press TU, menu level 2 will appear.
Menu level 2
• Press the key marked REG, you can
switch to “REG ON” or “REG OFF”.
“AF” is highlighted for the corresponding
softkey.
While searching for the strongest reception
signal, the radio may switch to mute briefly.
If “SEARCH” appears in the display when
you switch on the radio or recall one of the
stored frequencies, this indicates that the
unit is automatically searching for an alter-
native frequency.
“SEARCH” will disappear from the display
when the alternative frequency has been
found or after the frequency band has been
run through completely.
If the reception quality of the selected pro-
gram deteriorates beyond a certain point:
• Tune into another station.
The Radio Data System offers you more
convenience when you listen to FM radio
stations.
More and more radio stations have begun
to broadcast RDS information alongside
their programs.
As soon as a program has been identified,
the station name including a regional identi-
fier, if available, will appear in the display,
for example, NDR1 NDS (regional program
in Lower Saxony, Germany).
When RDS is activated, the preset buttons
become program buttons. You now know
exactly which program you have tuned into,
making it easy to find the desired station
quickly.
But RDS offers you further advantages:
AF - Alternative frequency
The AF (Alternative Frequency) function
makes sure that the strongest frequency of
the currently selected program is always
tuned in automatically.
Switching AF on/off:
For radio operation
• Press TU, menu level 2 will appear.
• Press the AF button briefly.
The function is activated when “AF” lights
up in the display.
