The RDS, if activated, enables 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.

Press OK.
Select the " FM waveband

source (Radio, CD, etc.) is interrupted
automatically to play the TA message.
Normal play of the media previously
playing is resumed at the end of the
message.
Take care when increasing the volume
while listening to TA messages. The
volume may prove too high on return to
the original audio source.
Press the TA button to activate or
deactivate traffic messages.
Receiving INFO messages
The INFO function gives priority to TA
alert messages. To be active, this function
needs good reception of a radio station
that transmits this type of message. When

interrupted automatically to receive the
INFO message. Normal play of the media
previously playing is resumed at the end
of the message.

DAB/FM station tracking
"DAB" does not have 100% coverage of
the country.
When the digital signal is weak,
"DAB / FM auto tracking" allows you to

ex i st s).
When the "DAB
/ FM auto tracking" is
active, the DAB station will be selected
automatically.
Press the MENU button.
Select " Multimedia " and confirm.
Select " DAB
/ FM auto tracking"
and confirm.
If "DAB

there is a lag of a few seconds when
the system switches to the analogue
FM station sometimes with a change in
volume. If the "DAB" station you are listening to
is not available on FM ("
DAB/FM" option
barred), or if "DAB / FM auto tracking"
is not on, the sound will be cut when the
digital signal is too weak.
