Switching The Audio Source; Radio Operation With Rds; Af - Alternative Frequency; Reg - Regional Programme - Blaupunkt FREIBURG RCR 127 Operating Instructions Manual

Switching the audio source

Using the SRC button you can switch be-
tween radio and tape operation.
Tape operation is only available if a cassette
is inserted.
To switch to another source,
• press SRC briefly.
Radio operation with RDS (Radio Data System)
The Radio Data System offers you more
convenience when listening to FM radio sta-
tions.
More and more radio stations have begun
to broadcast RDS information alongside
their programmes.
As soon as a programme has been identi-
fied, the station name including a regional
identifier, if applicable, will appear in the dis-
play, for example, NDR1 NDS (regional pro-
gramme 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 desired sta-
tion quickly.
But RDS offers you further advantages:

AF - Alternative frequency

The AF (Alternative Frequency) function
makes sure that the strongest frequency of
the currently selected programme is always
tuned in automatically.
This function is activated when "AF" appears
in the display.
In order to switch this function on or off,
• press the AF button briefly.
While searching for the strongest reception
signal, the radio may switch to mute briefly.
If "SEARCH" appears in the display when
switching on the radio or recalling one of the
stored frequencies, the unit is 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 been
run through completely.
If the reception quality of the selected pro-
gramme becomes too bad:
• Tune into another station.

REG - regional programme

Certain radio programmes are split up at
times into regional programmes offering lo-
cal information. The 1st programme broad-
cast by NDR, for example, offers pro-
grammes with different contents in the north-
ern states of Germany Schleswig-Holstein,
Hamburg and Lower Saxony at certain times
of the day.
If you are listening to one regional pro-
gramme and move to an area where anoth-
er linked regional programme becomes
stronger, the unit will switch to that pro-
gramme.
If you wish to continue listening to the first
programme,
• press the AF button for approximately
1 sec.
"REG ON" appears in the display.
