"RDS"
Alternative frequencies "AF"
Your radio automatically checks and selects
the best frequency for the radio station to
which it is tuned (if the station broadcasts on
several transmitters or frequencies).
The frequency of a radio station covers ap-
proximately 30 miles (50 km). The change
from one frequency to another explains the
temporary loss of reception during a journey.
If the station to which you are listening does
not have several frequencies in the region in
which you are currently located, you can de-
activate the alternative frequency following.
Traffic information "TP"
T h e " T r a f fi c P r o g r a m " ( T P ) f u n c t i o n p e r -

i n g t o a n F M s t a t i o n b r o a d c a s t i n g t r a f fi c
information.
The radio station or the source that you
are listening to at this point is paused.
O n c e t h e t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n h a s e n d e d ,
the system switches back to the radio
station or the source that you were lis-
tening to initially.
Regional following mode "REG"
Some stations are organised in a network.
In different regions, they broadcast diffe-
rent or shared programmes depending
on the time of day.
You can follow:
- a regional station only,
- the entire network, with the possi-bility that you will be listening to a
different programme.
The "AF", "REG" and "TP"
functions can be deacti-
vated or activated via the
"TUNE" button functions
setting mode. Press the "TP" button.
"TP" appears on the display.
If the station is compatible,
"RDS" also appears.
I f t h e r a d i o d e t e c t s t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n ,
"TRAF INF" appears on the display,
followed by the frequency of the broad-
casting station, then its name.
The volume is different from that of the
previous source.
F o l l o w i n g t h e b r o a d c a s t i n g o f t h e t r a f fi c
information, the volume returns to that
of the source prior to the interruption.
When "TP" appears on the display,
the radio stops solely at RDS stations
b r o a d c a s t i n g t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n .
On long distance journeys, when the
stored station becomes weak, the radio
s e a r c h e s fi r s t f o r a n o t h e r f r e q u e n c y f o r
the same station (AF). Then, if this fails,
it searches for a frequency broadcast-
ing the regional programme (REG). If
this also fails, the radio returns to the
stored station.
The "Radio Data System" (RDS) func-
tion on the FM waveband permits:
- access to the displaying of information,
such as the name of the station, ...
- tuning to the same station while tra- velling through different regions,
- t e m p o r a r y t u n i n g t o t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n announcements.
Most FM stations use the RDS. These
stations transmit non-audible data in
addition to their programmes.
The data transmitted in this way allows
you access to various functions, mainly
displaying of the name of the station,
automatic station following or temporary
t u n i n g t o t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n a n n o u n c e -
ments.
The RDS allows you to continue listen-
ing to the same station by means of the
alternative frequency following. How-
ever, in certain conditions, this RDS
frequency following cannot be provided
throughout the country. Radio stations
do not cover the whole country, which
explains the loss of reception of the sta-
tion during a journey.
