Selecting the operating mode

Radio operation with RDS (Radio Data System)

DEUTSCH

Use the SRC (source) button to select bet- ween radio, CD and CD changer, if applica- ble.

The CD mode is not available unless a CD has been inserted.

The CD changer mode is not available un- less a CD changer is connected and a CD magazine inserted. Otherwise, “No CD” will appear in the display.

Press SRC to switch between the operating modes.

The Radio Data System enhances your en- joyment when you listen to FM radio stati- ons.

More and more radio stations now broad- cast RDS information along with their regu- lar programming.

As soon as radio programmes are identified, the station name including a regional iden- tifier, if applicable, will appear in the display, for example, NDR1 NDS (regional program- me in Lower Saxony, Germany). When RDS is activated, the preset buttons become pro- gramme buttons. You now know exactly which programme you have tuned into, ma- king it easy to find the desired station quickly. But RDS also offers you further advantages:

AF - Alternative frequency

The “AF” function makes sure that the radio always tunes into the strongest frequency for the currently selected programme auto- matically.

Press the AF•TA button for approximately 2 seconds, until you hear a beep and “AF” appears in display field 3.

While searching for the strongest reception signal, the radio may switch to mute briefly. If “SEARCH” appears in the display when the radio is switched on or one of the stored frequencies recalled, the unit is already au-

tomatically searching for an alternative fre- quency.

“SEARCH” will disappear from the display when the alternative frequency has been found or after the frequency band has run through completely.

If the reception quality of the programme selected deteriorates beyond a certain point, tune into another station.

REG - regional programme

Certain radio programmes are split up at times into regional programmes offering lo- cal information. The 1st programme broad- cast by NDR, for example, offers pro- grammes with different contents in the nor- thern German states of Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg and Lower Saxony at certain times of the day.

If you are listening to a particular regional programme and wish to continue doing so, select “REG ON” in the DSC mode.

If you leave the service area of the regional programme you are tuned into, or if you would like to take full advantage of RDS service, switch to “REG OFF” in the DSC mode.

The display will briefly indicate whether this function is switched on or off with “REG ON” or “OFF” when you switch on the “AF” function.
