Brief introduction

Current road traffic is more and more
demanding on a driver's attention.
Modern car radios offer extensive and
sophisticated functions, offering both fun and
various traffic information.
You should only operate the radio and its
features when the traffic situation allows you to
do so.
For example: changing the discs, reading the
booklets etc. when driving has resulted in
many critical situations.Always set the volume at a level which does not
prevent you from hearing outside sounds.
Always concentrate primarily on driving!
If you are uncertain about some functions of
the radio, or if unexpected behaviour appears,
always consult the manual after stopping the
car at a safe location, or please do not hesilate
to contact your Škoda Service Partner or
importeur.Note: the texts marked with * are applicable
only to selected car models, or to cars with
extra (optional) equipment.

REGIONAL
REGIONAL ON The tuner continuously tunes, updates and
sorts all available signals, thus updating the
memory, for the area where you are
currently driving. This process causes very
short dropouts; and this is not a malfunction.
Under certain circumstances, operation of the
function can be annoying. You can
switch off the function, and the tuner then has
to check any frequency that you want it to tune
to.
Some stations offer nationwide programming
and also local programmes with modified
content.
You can listen to local content to get
information about local traffic situation and
local events.
If this function is active, the tuner will not switch
to an alternative frequency of a nationwide
station whenever a regional programme has
been tuned; even if the alternative frequency
has stronger signal.REGIONAL OFF

LEARN Your radio includes a RDS (Radio Data System)
decoder, which receives additional data
transmitted by the majority of FM transmitters.
Your radio displays the names of the stations it
is tuned to.
Nationwide stations use a network of
transmitters operating on different frequencies
to cover the whole country without
interference between transmitters.
Press button to display the tuner
menu. Use preset buttons to select and to
change the options.
Your radio offers a function which reduces drop
outs, allows for better reception and faster
tuning. The radio creates a list of available
signals sorted by program identifier (PI) and
signal strength. This allows the radio to tune to
other frequency with the same program, using
a list of alternative frequencies used by
nationwide stations.11
