The majority of FM radio stations use the
RDS system. The radio in your vehicle has
this system,.
The RDS system enables these stations
to transmit non-audible data in addition to
the broadcasting of their programmes. The
data provides access to various functions
described in this chapter, such as: display of
the station name, intermittent traffi c informa-
tion fl ashes or automatic scanning of stations.
This enables you to continue listening to
your chosen radio station, regardless of the
different frequencies it uses in the regions
through which you are travelling.
SCANNING OF RDS STATIONS
Your radio keeps the best possible recep-
tion by continuously looks for any other
frequencies on which the selected radio
station is broadcast, automatically choosing
the frequency offering the best reception
(if the station broadcasts on more than one
transmitter or frequency.
