companies cannot guarantee the
same quality of reception as is
obtained with a domestic radio using
an overhead antenna.
„Changes in distance from the
transmitter
„multi-path reception due to
reflection and
„shadowing
may cause hissing, noise, distortion
or loss of reception altogether.

RDS stations transmit information
which is automatically evaluated by
the RDS radio.
In some areas, other functions
associated with RDS are available,
e.g. TA (Traffic Announcement) and
REG (Regionalisation).
AF (Alternative Frequency)
An RDS program is transmitted on
several frequencies simultaneously.
With AF on, during the journey the
Infotainment system automatically
searches for the strongest receivable
frequency.
REG (Regionalisation)
Some RDS stations transmit different
regional programs over different
frequencies at certain times.
With REG on, when searching for the
frequency of a radio program with the
strongest reception using AF (Alternative Frequency), the
Infotainment system always remains
tuned to the selected regional
program.
With REG off, when searching for the
