functions:
– Digital Radio (DR);
– RDS radio;

Radio and CD/CD MP3
functions
The radio allows you to listen to radio
stations and play CDs in different audio
formats.
The radio stations are classed by wave-
length: FM (frequency modulation) and
AM (amplitude modulation).
The DR system (digital terrestrial radio)
provides better sound reproduction and
access to text information stored on the
radio (Intellitext) by scrolling through
the text to display:
– news updates;
– sports results, etc.
The RDS system makes it possible to
display the name of some stations or
messages sent by FM stations to be
displayed:
– traffic bulletins (TA);
– emergency messages.
Auxiliary audio function
You can listen to your personal stereo
directly through your vehicle’s speak-
ers. There are several ways of connect-
ing your portable audio player, depend-
ing on the type(s) of device you have:
– USB socket;
– Jack socket;
– Bluetooth® connection.
For more information on the list of com-
patible devices, contact an authorised
dealer.
