necessary.Enter code– Switch on the radio if the ignition is on.

REG
Certain programs of the broadcasting companies are divided into regional
programs at specific times. That is why in individual regions the regional programs
of a station can broadcast different contents.

station.
If the quality is however so low, that there is a risk of a “program loss”, the unit also
accepts “related” frequencies.•
FIX - the receiver switches to a regional “related” station, if the reception of the
