in certain conditions, coverage of an RDS station may not be
assured throughout the entire country as radio stations do not cover 100 % of the territory. This explains the loss of reception of
the station during a journey.

whether there is a more powerful transmitter in thegeographical area.
The environment
(hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) block reception, including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate
a fault with the audio system.
The aerial is absent or has been dama

I
cannot fi nd some radiostations in the list of stations received.The station is not received or its name has chan
ged in the list.
Some radio stations send other information in place of their name
(the title of the song for example).
The system interprets this in
formation as the name of the station. The name of the radio station changes.
