U SING THE RDS ( RADIO DATA SYSTEM ) FUNCTION ON FMUSING THE RDS ( R RDS (R
The majority of FM stations use the RDS system.This system enables such stations to transmit non-audible data in addition to the broadcast-ing of their programmes.The data provides access to various func-tions described in this chapter, such as: i nte r m i t te nt t r a f f i c i n f o r m at i o n f l a s h e s, display of the station name and automatic station scanning.RDS enables you to continue listening to your chosen radio station, regardless of the different frequencies it uses in the regions through which you are travelling.
SCANNING OF RDS STATIONSNaviDrive keeps the best possible recep-tion.It continuously looks for any other frequen-cies on which the selected radio station is broadcast, automatically choosing the frequency of fering the best reception (if the station broadcasts on more than one transmitter or frequency).Activation or deactivation of the function can be accessed via the “AUDIO” main menu or via the “R ADIO” contextual menu.The display will indicate :RDS, if the function is active and available for the station chosen.RDS barred on the monochrome display or RDS shaded on the colour display, when the function is activated but not available on the station.If the station you have selected does not broadcast on dif ferent frequencies in the areas in which you are travelling, it is possible to deactivate the automatic RDS transmission scanning function.
