RDS (Radio Data System)
RDS is a European service provided
by broadcasting companies, which
makes finding the required FM station
much easier and aids good reception.
RDS stations transmit information
which is automatically evaluated by
the RDS radio.
In some areas, other functions
associated with RDS are available,
e.g. TA (Traffic Announcement) and
REG (Regionalisation).
AF (Alternative Frequency)
An RDS program is transmitted on
several frequencies simultaneously.
With AF on, during the journey the
Infotainment system automatically
searches for the strongest receivable
frequency.
REG (Regionalisation)
Some RDS stations transmit different
regional programs over different
frequencies at certain times.
With REG on, when searching for the
frequency of a radio program with the
strongest reception using AF
(Alternative Frequency), the
Infotainment system always remains
tuned to the selected regional
program.
With REG off, when searching for the
frequency of a radio program with the
strongest reception using AF
(Alternative Frequency), the
Infotainment system does not
consider regional programs.
Switching AF and REG on and off
Settings appears in the following
order when the AF button
7
is
pressed repeatedly:
AF on/REG off,
AF on/REG on,
AF off, REG off.
With AF and/or REG active, “AF” and
“REG” appear in the display
respectively.
PTY (Program Type)
Many RDS stations transmit a PTY
code that indicates the type of
program being broadcast
