that can be received in the local area during a long motorway journey.
As the automatic updating takes a certain amount of time, not all
stations that can be received may be
available at once in the station list at a sudden change in reception area.

If RDS Regional mode is activated,
only frequencies of the currently
received RDS station with the same
regional programme are considered.
If RDS Regional mode is deactivated,
also frequencies of the currently
received RDS station with different
regional programmes are considered.
Activating or deactivating
RDS Regional mode
Press the SETUP button and then
select the Radio settings screen
button.
The RADIO SETUP menu is
displayed.Set RDS Regional to On or Off.
Traffic announcements (TA)
The TA function is available in any
mode of operation ( e.g. FM radio, CD
or navigation mode) except in the AM
radio mode.
If the TA function is enabled and the
Infotainment system receives a traffic announcement from an RDS station,
the currently active audio source will
be interrupted.
A message is displayed and a verbal
announcement transmitted.
During the verbal announcement the
volume can be changed by turning
the m knob.
The traffic announcement can be
cancelled by selecting the Cancel
screen button.
When the traffic announcement is
finished or cancelled, the volume is
automatically reset to the original
setting.Notice
When a mode of operation other
than the radio mode is selected
(e.g. CD or navigation mode) the
radio stays active in the background.
If the radio station last selected does
not broadcast traffic
announcements, the Infotainment
system automatically tunes to a
radio station that broadcasts traffic
announcements (even if the AM
waveband was previously selected).
This ensures that important region
related traffic announcements can
be received at any time,
independent of the selected mode of operation.
Enabling or disabling traffic
announcements
Select the TA screen button to enable
or disable the reception of traffic
announcements.
When the reception of traffic
announcements is enabled, TA is
displayed in the top line of all main
menus. If traffic announcements can
not be received, TA is crossed out.
