Operation of the Radio

RDS System

RDS system
Your radio includes a RDS (Radio Data System)
decoder, which receives additional data
transmitted by the majority of FM transmitters.
Station Name display (PS)
Your radio displays the names of the stations it
is tuned to.
Alternative Frequency network (AF)
Nationwide stations use a network of
transmitters operating on different frequencies
to cover the whole country without
interference between transmitters.
Tuner parameters setting
Press 11 MODE button to display the tuner
menu. Use preset buttons 12

LEARN
Your radio offers a function which reduces drop
outs, allows for better reception and faster
tuning. The radio creates a list of available
signals sorted by program identifier (PI) and
signal strength. This allows the radio to tune to
other frequency with the same program, using
a list of alternative frequencies used by
nationwide stations.

LEARN ON
The tuner continuously tunes, updates and
sorts all available signals, thus updating the
LEARN memory, for the area where you are
currently driving. This process causes very
short dropouts; and this is not a malfunction.
LEARN OFF
Under certain circumstances, operation of the
LEARN function can be annoying. You can
switch off the function, and the tuner then has
to check any frequency that you want it to tune
to.
REGIONAL
Some stations offer nationwide programming
and also local programmes with modified
to select and to content.
You can listen to local content to get
information about local traffic situation and
local events.
REGIONAL ON
If this function is active, the tuner will not switch
to an alternative frequency of a nationwide
station whenever a regional programme has
been tuned; even if the alternative frequency
has stronger signal.
REGIONAL OFF
The tuner will tune to alternative frequencies
with stronger signals, regardless of local
content. The received programme can change.
SEEK
Tuning sensitivity.
SEEK LOCAL
SEEK stops at local stations with stronger
signal.
