Notes on radio reception
Your radio will be subject to certain phenomena that are not encoun-tered by domestic systems.
The reception of AM and FM sig-nals may suffer from interference, which is caused by the nature and propagation of the signals and d o e s n o t r e fl e c t o n t h e q u a l i t y o f your radio installation.
In AM, the reception may be af-fected when passing under power lines or bridges, or when travelling through tunnels.
In FM mode, the reception may be affected by the distance from the s t a t i o n t r a n s m i t t e r , t h e r e fl e c t i n g o f signals off obstacles (mountains, hills, tower blocks) and radio blacks-pots (no coverage from the station transmitter).
Selection of radio source

By keeping button J or M pressed, you will be able to scroll through the waveband. Scrolling will stop as soon as you release the button. The radio will remain tuned to the frequency that is displayed.
Tuning sensitivity
Automatic searches can be car-ried out according to two levels of sensitivity :
- To capture the most powerful trans-mitters, choose the local search mode “LO” (default option).
- To capture the weakest or most distant transmitters, choose the sensitive search mode “DX”.
S e a r c h f o r a s t a t i o n i s d o n e fi r s t in “LO” (local) sensitivity, then in “DX” (distant) sensitivity.
To commence a search in sensi-tivity “DX” (distant) immediately , press twice in succession on one of the buttons K or N.
Automatic search
A short press on one of the but-tons K or N will tune into higher or lower radio stations respectively, within the chosen waveband.

Using the RDS (radio data system) function on FM
The majority of FM radio stations use the RDS system. The radio in your vehicle has this system,.
The RDS system enables these stations to transmit non-audible data in addition to the broadcasting of their programmes. The data provides access to various functions described in this chapter, such as: display of the station name, inter- m i t t e n t t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n fl a s h e s o r automatic scanning of stations. This enables you to continue listening to your chosen radio station, regard-less of the different frequencies it uses in the regions through which you are travelling.
Scanning of RDS stations
Your radio keeps the best pos-sible reception by continuously looking for any other frequencies on which the selected radio sta-tion is broadcast, automatically choosing the frequency offering the best reception (providing the station broadcasts on more than one transmitter or frequency).
Activation/deactivation of the RDS functions
The RDS functions can be accessed via the following two menus :
- Main menu (press button O).
- Audio menu (press button L).
To activate/deactivate the RDS functions on multifunction screen C :
1. Press button O.
2. Select the AUDIO icon using buttons J or M.
3. C o n fi r m y o u r c h o i c e w i t h a press on button L.
4. Select the sub-menu for the FM waveband, via buttons Jor M . C o n fi r m y o u r c h o i c e w i t h a press on button L.
5. Select scanning for RDS sta-tions, via buttons J or M.
6. Validate your choice with a press on button L.
7. Using control L, select/dese-lect to activate/deactivate the function.
8. Validate your choice by select-ing “OK” on the display.
To activate/deactivate the RDS functions on multifunction screen A :
1. Press button O.
2. Select the AUDIO-CD icon via buttons J or M.
3. Select scanning for RDS sta-tions, via buttons J or M. The system tells you the status (ac-tive or inactive) of the function.
4. Modify this status via buttons K or N.
5. Then please wait for the dis-play to disappear.
Note :
If the RDS function is active :
The “RDS” on the display will light up provided the station being re-ceived uses the RDS system with scanning of frequencies.
The “RDS” on the display is barred if the station received uses the RDS system without frequency search.
If your RDS function is deactiva-ted, the “RDS” on the display will be absent in all cases.
The display will indicate the “NAME” for the stations that use the RDS system and the frequency for stations that do not use it.

While the messages are being broadcast the original source is paused and when the messages have ended your radio will auto-matically revert to the music pro-gramme you were listening to.
Notes :
- You have to be in FM wave band.
- The station being listened to should indicate via the RDS system that it b r o a d c a s t s t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n.
- Stations organised in a network (EON) have regional transmitters that send their own programmes: while you are listening to one of these stations the system will switch automatically to a station on the network that is broadcast- i n g t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n .
- You can stop listening to a mes-sage by pressing button I.
