RDS SYtEM
using the RDS (radio data
system) function on FM
The majority of FM radio stations
use the RDS system. The radio in
your vehicle has this system.
The RDS system enables
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 traffic
information flashes 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
reception by continuously looking 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).
