While searching for the strongest recepti-
on signal, the radio may switch to mute
briefly.
If "SEARCH" appears in the display when
the radio is switched on or one of the stored
frequencies recalled, the unit is already
automatically searching for an alternative
frequency.
"SEARCH" will disappear from the display
when the alternative frequency has been
found or after the frequency band has run
through completely.
If the reception quality of the programme
selected deteriorates beyond a certain
point:
•
Tune into another station.
REG - regional programme
Certain radio programmes are split up at
times into regional programmes offering
local information. The 1st programme
broadcast by NDR, for example, offers pro-
grammes with different contents in the nor-
thern German states of Schleswig-Holstein,
Hamburg and Lower Saxony at certain
times of the day.
If you are listening to a particular regional
programme and wish to continue doing so,
select "REG ON" in the DSC mode.
If you leave the service area of the regio-
nal programme you are tuned into, or if you
would like to take full advantage of RDS
service, switch to "REG OFF" in the DSC
mode.
Selecting a waveband
The following wavebands are available:
UKW (FM)
87,5 – 108 MHz,
MW (AM)
531 – 1602 kHz and

153 – 279 kHz

•
Press / , the car radio will automati-
cally search for the next station.
If you hold / pressed up or down on the
rocker switch, seek tuning will speed up in
the corresponding direction.
Radio operation with RDS (Radio Data System)
The Radio Data System enhances your
enjoyment when you listen to FM radio sta-
tions.
More and more radio stations now broad-
cast RDS information along with their re-
gular programming.
As soon as a programme has been identi-
fied, the station name including a regional
identifier, if applicable, will appear in the
display, for example, NDR1 NDS (regional
programme in Lower Saxony, Germany).
When RDS is activated, the preset buttons
become programme buttons. You now
know exactly which programme you have
tuned into, making it easy to find the desi-
red station quickly.
But RDS also offers you further advantages:
AF - Alternative frequency
The AF (Alternative Frequency) function
makes sure that the radio always tunes into
the strongest frequency for the currently sel-
ected programme automatically. If this
function is activated, "AF" will appear in the
display.
To switch AF on/off,
•
press the AF·TA button for a longer
time.
