RDS.
When it is switched on "RDS ON" shows
on display.
When switching it off "RDS OFF" shows
briefly on display.
With the RDS off the tuner set does not
switch automatically to alternative fre-
quencies.
If you switch on the radio with the RDS off
"RDS OFF" will show briefly on display.

Every time you select a new frequency
e.g.: station search, pretuning buttons,
etc., the RDS is automatically switched
on.
With the RDS on we can also tune into
non-RDS stations. T

When the RDS function is on an RDS
broadcasting station is tuned in. The fre-
quency is displayed in the first place. And
once the tuner has analysed all the infor-
mation the station’s abbreviated name is
displayed instead of the frequency.
•
The RDS function on or off can be mem-
orised together with the station selected
by using the pre-tuning buttons.

Some channels broadcast also regional or
local programs.
The radio tries to tune into the alternative
frequencies of the selected station only.
If the quality is so poor that the station
starts to fade, then the tuner also accepts
"neighbouring" station frequencies. As
these local stations may be broadcasting
different programs at certain time slots it
may happen that we end up listening to a
different programme.
This is why the radio tuners have been
programmed so that the RDS only selects
local or regional stations broadcasting
the exact same program.
•
But, should a change of this kind take
place, then the Auto REG setting from the
menu must be activated (see page 10).
