Radio mode
Regionalisation
The RDS diversity function is independent of re-
gion. In this mode it is possible that, the RDS di-
versity function may cause the radio to switch
between various regional programmes with differ-
ing programme formats. In such a case, the special
regional programming must be selected directly.
If several regional programmes are transmitted by
one station, this can only be seen when the station
is selected.
Stations with additional regional transmitters are
indicated with a star (i.e.
4*
).
Upon selection of one of these stations (e.g.
4*
),
all receivable regional sub-programmes for this
station will be displayed.
Afterward, select the desired regional sub-pro-
gramme (i.e.
).
If the signal quality of a regional sub-programme
drifts despite the RDS Diversity function, it may
mean that regional sub-programming is only trans-
mitted on a few frequencies. Therefore, the unit
has to fewer frequencies with stronger signals to
switch to.

Radio text cannot be displayed unless the selected
station also transmits radio text.

the display of the radio text may be garbled or not
possible at all.
In order to quit the radio text level, press the
button.
Danger
Accident hazard
Since information transmitted via radio text var-
ies constantly, we recommend displaying the ra-
dio text only when the vehicle is stationary to
avoid unnecessary distraction for the driver. This
is a necessary precaution for accident prevention.
