After you switch to Radio mode, the available
frequency bands (FM, AM and DAB) are ini-
tially displayed in the bottom line of the
screen ›››
Fig. 2. After roughly 5 seconds, they
are replaced by the “station buttons”
››› Fig. 3. Stations can be stored to the station
buttons ›››
page 12. The station that is playing will appear in the
centre of

the screen. For stations with RDS,
the name of the station will appear instead of
its frequency if reception is good enough, for
example RADIO 1.
RDS and automatic station tracking
(only in FM) RDS is a radio data service which makes it
pos
s

ible to receive additional services such
as the display of station names, automatic
station tracking (AF) and the TP function (Traf-
fic Program ››› page 16).
With automatic station tracking, when the ve-
hicle is in motion the station always changes
to the frequency with the best reception in
that moment. If the reception is poor, the unit
may be muted for a short time as it searches
for alternative frequencies (AF).
RDS does not exist everywhere nor is it avail-
able for all stations.
Depending on the country and the unit, it is
possible that the RDS and the alternative fre-
quencies (AF) are deactivated ›››
