RDS radio data and TP (Traffic Programme)
services
Introduction
The RDS (Radio Data System) offers additional information in FM such as the
visualisation of the station name, automatic station tracking (Alternative
Frequencies), text emitted by radio (Radio Text) and traffic reports (TP).
Not all units have RDS, not all the FM stations offer this service and nor can
the infrastructure of all the countries permit it.
Without RDS it is not possible to obtain radio data services .
Additional Information:
● Safety notes  ⇒  page 4
● Unit overview ⇒ page 6
● Radio mode ⇒ page 12
Note
The radio station is responsible for the content of the broadcast informa-
tion. RDS and radio text
Fig. 15 Main RADIO
menu with station name
display and TP function
activated.
If the RDS service is available and the quality of reception is good enough,
the station name may be displayed in Radio mode ⇒ Fig. 15.
Automatic station tracking
Some FM stations broadcast different content (temporary or permanent) on
different wavelengths using the same name depending on the region.
By default, automatic station tracking always switches to the currently se-
lected radio station's frequency that offers the best reception, as the vehicle
travels from one area to the next. As a result, you may lose the regional pro-
gramme you are listening to. The automatic change of station can be de-
leted using the setting menu Radio ⇒ page 17.
Display and delete the radio text
Some RDS-enabled stations also broadcast additional text information
known as radio text. It is possible to adjust the display to show radio text.
● In the RADIO main menu, press the 
unit button.
While radio text is switched on  is shown at the top right of the screen. 
