Radio mode
RDS
Many FM stations broadcast an RDS (Radio Data
System) signal in addition to their programme in
the reception area "EUROPE" that allows the follow-
ing additional functions:
• The station name is shown on the display.
• The car sound system recognises tra c an-
nouncements and news broadcasts and can
automatically switch them through in other
operating modes (e.g. in CD mode).
• Alternate frequency: If RDS is activated, the car
sound system automatically selects the best
receivable frequency for the station that is cur-
rently set.
• Regional: At certain times, some radio stations
divide their programme into regional pro-
grammes providing di erent content. If the
REGIONAL function is activated, the car sound
system changes only to those alternate frequen-
cies on which the same regional programme is
being broadcast.
The functions RDS and REGIONAL are activated
and deactivated in the user menu (see the chap-
ter "User settings", section "Making settings
in the "TUNER" menu", menu items "RDS" and
" REGIONAL").
Note:
If you adjust a di erent reception area than
"EUROPE", RDS is automatically switched o .
The station name continues to be shown on
the display. If you want to use radio stations
with RDS features in your region, switch on
RDS in the user menu.
