"RDS" "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
approximately 30 miles (50 km). The
change from one frequency to another
explains the temporary loss of recep-
tion during a journey.
If the station to which you are listening
does not have several frequencies in
the region in which you are currently lo-
cated, you can deactivate the alternative
frequency following.
Traffic information "TP"
The "Traffi c Program" (TP) function per-
mits automatic and temporary switc-hing
to an FM station broadcasting traffi c infor-
mation.
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 "REG"
Some stations are organised in a net-
work.
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 possibility
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.
If the radio detects traffi c information,
"TRAF INF" appears on the display, fol-
lowed by the frequency of the broadcasting
station, then its name.
The volume is different from that of the
previous source.
Following the broadcasting of the traffi c
information, the volume returns to that
of the source prior to the interruption.
When "TP" appears on the dis-
play, the radio stops solely at
RDS stations broadcasting traffi c
information. On long distance journeys, when
the stored station becomes
weak, the radio searches fi rst for
another frequency for the same
station (AF). Then, if this fails, it
searches for a frequency broad-
casting 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 display of information,
such as the name of the station, ...
- tuning to the same station while
travelling through different regions,
- temporary tuning to traffi c informa-
tion announcements.
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,
automatic station following or temporary
tuning to traffi c information announce-
ments.
The RDS allows you to continue liste-
ning to the same station by means of
the alternative frequency following.
However, 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 station during a journey.

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

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,
