What is RDS?    
RDS station following    
Tr a ffi c information function 
  Your radio automatically checks 
and selects the best frequency 
for the radio station to which it is 
tuned (if the station broadcasts on se-
veral 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 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 deactivate the auto-
matic frequency following.  
 
 
Radio, RDS, AF, REG, TP, PTY 
 
Radio Data System (RDS) function 
on the FM waveband permits: 
   
 
-   tuning to the same station while 
travelling through different regions 
(if the transmitters of this station 
cover the area through which you 
are travelling), 
   
-   temporary tuning to traffi c information 
announcements, 
   
-   display of the name of the station, 
etc...  
  Most FM stations use 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, 
temporary tuning to traffi c  information 
announcements or automatic station 
following. 
  RDS allows you to continue listening to 
the same station by means of the fre-
quency following. However, in certain 
conditions, this RDS frequency follo-
wing cannot be provided throughout 
the country. Radio stations do not cover 
the whole country, which explains the 
loss of reception of the station during 
a journey.    The Traffic Program (TP) func-
tion permits automatic and tem-
porary switching to an FM station 
broadcasting traffi c information. 
  The radio station or the source that you 
are listening to at this point is paused. 
  Once the traffi c information has ended, 
the system switches back to the radio 
station or the source that you were lis-
tening to initially.  
   
Regional following mode 
  Some stations are organised in 
a network. 
  In different regions, they broad-
cast different or shared programmes de-
pending on the time of day. 
  You can follow: 
   
 
-   a regional station only, 
   
-   the entire network, with the possibility 
that you will be listening to a different 
programme.  
    
Programme types 
 
Some stations offer the option of 
listening to a themed type of pro-
gramme as a priority, selected from 
the list available below: 
  NEWS, AFFAIRS, INFOS, SPORT, 
EDUCATE, DRAMA, CULTURE, SCIENCE, 
VARIED, POP M, ROCK M, EASY M,
LIGHT M, CLASSICS, OTHER M, 
WEATHER, FINANCE, CHILDREN,
SOCIAL, RELIGION, PHONE IN, TRAVEL, 
LEISURE, JAZZ, COUNTRY, NATION M,
OLDIES, FOLK M, DOCUMENT.
