Radio data services RDS
The RDS (Radio Data System) offers additional information in FM such as thevisualisation of the station name, automatic station tracking (AF), text emit-ted by radio (Radio Text ⇒ Fig. 5), traffic reports (TP) and programme type(PTY).
Not all units have RDS, nor do all FM stations offer this service.
Without RDS it is not possible to obtain radio data services.
Note●The broadcasting companies are responsible for the content broadcast.●
Due to infrastructure issues, RDS functions may be limited in certaincountries, and you may not be able to use traffic reports, automatic stationtracking (AF) or programme types (PTY).

Station name and automatic station tracking
When the RDS is available, you can view the names of the stations provid-ing this service in the RADIO main menu and in the list of FM stations.
The FM stations send different content under one name (for example, Radio3) in various regional frequencies, provisionally or permanently ⇒ Fig. 5.
When driving, the automatic station tracking automatically changes to thefrequency that provides the best reception of the currently-selected station.However, this can interrupt the regional station currently tuned.
The automatic change of frequencies and automatic station tracking can belinked through the FM setup ⇒ page 18.
