Radio reception conditions
Reception conditions in the VHF range change all the time during a
journey. Mountains, buildings or bridges can impair reception. This
is especially true when the station is very distant.
Radio Data System (RDS)
RDS is an information system for which most VHF stations transmit
additional signals. With RDS stations, the name of the station
appears as an abbreviation in the display, for example
»
ANTENNE
«. RDS stations are broadcast by several transmitters at
different frequencies (alternative frequencies). If an RDS station is
selected the device automatically switches to the alternative
frequency with the best reception, provided one is available.
Enhanced Other Network (EON)
The EON function allows you to hear traffic news, even when you
are listening to another RDS station which does not broadcast its
own traffic news. However, this only works if the RDS broadcaster
you are listening to also provides another RDS station with traffic
news. Standby mode for radio traffic news (TP) must also be
activated.
Cleaning
Only use a soft, anti-static duster to clean the front panel of the
device. Polish and cleaning agents can damage the surface of the
panel.
The magnetic head of the tape unit must be kept free of tape
particles in order to maintain high-quality playback. You should
therefore clean the magnetic head every 50 to 100 service hours
with a tape cleaning cassette.
