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 disc playback Your radio requires no special maintenance,
but it can be damaged when foreign objects,
e.g. credit cards or coins, are inserted into the
CD slot.

writing session is properly finalized. Full
compatibility with international standard for
CD- DA discs, so- called “Red Book” is
guaranteed. Some copy protected discs do not
conform to this standard and cannot be played.

shaped, etc.) or discs fitted with scratch
protection. Do not insert discs to which labels
are attached.
