Radio With RDS



Radio With RDS







General
RDS (Radio Data System) is an information system transmitted in Europe in parallel with the radio programmes on the FM band. The RDS system ensures that reception is always optimum, irrespective of your location. The RDS function automatically searches for the best transmitter.

Function
The RDS radio in audio systems 2 and 3 contains a double tuner. This improves the quality of RDS reception as one tuner is used solely to decode the RDS information and the other solely for reception of audio information. The change-over interruption on reception is therefore minimal and the frequency change is inaudible.

IMPORTANT: Detailed operation of the audio system is given in the Owner's manual included with the vehicle.
