Things to know
Radio reception conditions
FM reception
Reception conditions change constantly
during driving.
Mountains, buildings and bridges can impair
reception.
This is especially true when you are far from a
station.
Radio data system (RDS)
RDS is an information system, whose signals
are transmitted additionally by most FDM
radio stations.
Programme service
For RDS programmes, you see the name of
the program in the display,
e.g. » ANTENNE «.
Please note that RDS channels can have diffe-
rent regional broadcasts and programme
names.
Alternative frequencies (AF)
An RDS channel is broadcast from several
stations at different transmission frequencies
(alternative frequencies).
You select an RDS channel and your car radio
switches automatically to the alternative fre-
quency with the best reception, if available.
Enhanced other network (EON)
This function allows you to hear traffic anno-
uncements even when you have set an RDS
channel without its own traffic radio.
Requirement:
The radio station which is broadcasting the
set RDS channel with EON carries another
RDS channel which offers traffic announce-
ments.
Announcement stand-by
For traffic announcements also for
RDS channels with EON, if »TP« is activated
in the display and the set RDS channel
remains audible.
Switching TP on and off:
¢¢
TP -Taste button briefly.
If a malfunction occurs,
see your authorised dealer.
Care
Clean the front panel of the car radio only
with a soft, dust collecting, antistatic cloth.
Polishing and cleaning agents can damage the
surface of the panel.
