RDS uses PI (program identification) signal and AF (alternative frequency) list transmitted in addition to the normal FM broadcasting programs, and picks up the
FM stations that are transmitting the same program from the AF list and automatically tunes to the station with the strongest signal intensity.
Therefore, you can continue listening to one program in, for example, a long distance driving without retuning to the other station transmitting the same program
when you are leaving the service area of the currently receiving station.
The RDS radio also features the limited reception of the program types, the break-in reception of the traffic announcement to the EON (enhanced other network)
and emergency broadcast, and the limited/unlimited reception of the regional programs.

tion by checking that “N” is shown by the allshift
indicator display and by pushing the vehicle.

sion is not in the “N” (Neutral) position, press the

sition, and move the allshift lever to the “N” (Neu-

tion by checking that “N” is shown by the allshift
indicator display and by pushing the vehicle.

mission, the engine will not start and the transmis-
sion is not in the “N” (Neutral) position, press the
