REGIONAL
REGIONAL ON The tuner continuously tunes, updates and
sorts all available signals, thus updating the
memory, for the area where you are
currently driving. This process causes very
short dropouts; and this is not a malfunction.
Under certain circumstances, operation of the
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.
Some stations offer nationwide programming
and also local programmes with modified
content.
You can listen to local content to get
information about local traffic situation and
local events.
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

LEARN Your radio includes a RDS (Radio Data System)
decoder, which receives additional data

Your radio offers a function which reduces drop
outs, allows for better reception and faster

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.11
