Radio
Selecting a station Radio reception may be affected by the use of electrical equipment not approved by the Brand, such as a USB charger connected to the 12V socket. The exterior environment (hills,
buildings, tunnel, car park, below ground...) may prevent reception, even in RDS station tracking mode. This phenomenon is normal in the propagation of radio waves and is in no way indicative of a fault with the audio system.

Activate/ Deactivate RDS
RDS, if activated, allows you to continue listening to the same station by automatic
retuning to alternative frequencies. However, 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.
The "Radio Text" function allows information transmitted by the radio station and related to the station or the song playing to be displayed.
Display text information Play TA messages
The TA (Traffic Announcement) function gives priority to TAalert messages. To operate, this function
needs good reception of a radio station that carries this type of message. While traffic information is being broadcast, the current media is automatically interrupted so that the TA message can be heard. Normal play of the media previously playing is resumed at the end of the message.

FM-DAB Follow-up Terrestrial Digital Radio
"DAB" does not cover 100% of the te r r i to r y. When the digital radio signal is poor, the "FM-DAB Follow-up" allows you to continue listening to the same station, by automatically switching to the corresponding "FM" analogue station (if there is one).
If the "FM-DAB Follow-up" is activated, there is a difference of a few seconds when the system switches to "FM" analogue radio with sometimes a variation in volume. Once the digital signal is restored, the system automatically changes back to " D A B " .
Digital radio provides higher quality reception. The different multiplexes offer a choice of radio stations arranged in
alphabetical order.
If the "DAB" station being listened to is not available on "FM", or if the "FM-DAB Follow-up" is not activated, the sound will cut out while the digital signal is too weak.
Activate / Deactivate " FM- DAB Follow-up ".
