FM WAVEBAND PREFERENCES
ACTIVATE FREQUENCY FOLLOWING (RDS)

The external environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks) may block reception, including in RDS mode. This is a normal effect of the way in which radio waves are transmitted and does notindicate any failure of the audio equipment.
RDS
The RDS, if displayed, enables you to continue listening to the samestation by automatic retuning to alternative frequencies. However, in certain conditions, coverage of an RDS station may not be assuredthroughout the country as radio stations do not cover 100 % of the territory. This explains the loss of reception of the station during a journey.

The MP3 format, an abbreviation of MPEG 1.2 & 2.5 Audio Layer 3,is an audio compression standard which permits the recording of several tens of music fi les on a single disc.

In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW, when recordingit is preferable to select standards ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet.
If the disc is recorded in another format, it may not be playedcorrectly. It is recommended that the same recording standard is always usedfor an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible (4x maximum) for optimum sound quality.
In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the Joliet standard is recommended.

The audio equipment will only play fi les with the extension ".mp3" with a sampling rate of 22.05 KHz or 44.1 KHz. No other type of fi le (.wma, .mp4, .m3u...) can be played.

It is advisable to restrict fi le names to 20 characters without usingspecial characters (e.g. " " ? ; ù) to avoid any playing or displayingproblems.
