Radio Operation
This device is equipped with an RDS radio
receiver. Many of the FM stations that can be
received transmit a signal in addition to the
program itself that contains information such
as the name of the station and the type of
program (PTY).
As soon as it can be received, the name of
the station is shown in the display . If desired,
the program type can be displayed.
You may read more about this in the section
on “Program Type (PTY)”.

RDS convenience function (AF,
REG)
The RDS convenience functions AF (alternat-
ive frequency) and REG (regional) extend the
capabilities of your radio (only in FM radio
operation).
● AF: If the RDS convenience function
has been activated, the device searches
automatically in the background for the
best frequency on which the set station
can be received.
● REG: Some stations divide their pro-
grams at certain times into regional pro-
grams with different content. The REG
function prevents the car radio from
switching to alternative frequencies that
have a different regional program con-
tent.
Note:
REG must be separately activated or deactiv-
ated in the radio function menu.
