The Radio Data System enhances your enjoyment when you listen to FM radio stations. More and more radio stations now broadcast RDS information along with their regular programming. As soon as radio programmes are identified, the station name including a regional identifier, if applicable, will appear in the display, for example, NDR1 NDS (regional programme in Lower Saxony, Germany). When RDS is activated, the preset buttons become programme buttons. You now know exactly which programme you have tuned into, making it easy to find the desired station quickly. But RDS also offers you further advantages:

REG - regional programme

Certain radio programmes are split up at times into regional programmes offering local information. The 1st programme broadcast by NDR, for example, offers programmes with different contents in the northern 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.
tomatically searching for an alternative frequency. 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.

Press << or >>; the programme type selected last will be displayed for 3 seconds. During this period press >> (forwards) or << (backwards) to select the desired type. Press << or >> as many times as required.
If necessary, press the PTY button to switch on the function.

PTY priority

Situation: PTY is switched on and lights up in the display. No station offering the selected programme type can be found currently in your reception range (with seek tuning or scan). The set will switch back to the station previously tuned into.

Storing programme types

Each of the preset buttons 1-6 has been assigned one programme type at the factory. If desired, you can also replace these with other available programme types. To do so, make sure that PTY lights up in the display.

Note: As already mentioned, these functions are only supported by a limited number of RDS stations at the present time.
If you would like to listen to a station with the selected PTY, press / to start the seek tuning function. If the radio is unable to find a station offering the selected programme type, the display will show NO PTY and a beep will be emitted. The radio will select the station which was tuned into before seek tuning was activated.
Important: PTY must appear in the display. Press SC. All of the stations in your current reception area offering the selected programme type will be scanned. To switch off PTY-SCAN: Press SC or the rocker switch again.
During CD operation, the set will also switch to the radio programme if the selected PTY becomes available within the broadcast network. After the PTY programme has ended the system will switch back to the previous mode (radio or CD).
Scanning stations with PTY SCAN
Select a programme type using buttons <</>> and hold down the desired preset button (1-6) until you hear a beep. Now the selected programme type can be recalled by pressing this preset as long as PTY lights up in the display.
As soon as it is possible to receive a programme in the broadcast network with the PTY selected, the radio will switch over to the corresponding station for the duration of the programme. Example: - Station playing: NDR3. - PTY lights up in the display. - Programme type POP selected. - Seek tuning is started. - No station with PTY-POP can be found. - The display shows NO PTY and - automatically switches back to NDR3. - NDR2 airs a PTY-POP programme. - The radio will switch to the linked stati on NDR2 for the duration of the POP programme.
Traffic programme station reception with RDS-EON
The abbreviation EON stands for Enhanced Other Networks, which means that information is exchanged within a radio network. Many FM radio stations provide their service area with traffic messages at regular intervals. Along with their programmes, all traffic programme stations transmit a special carrier signal, which is decoded by your car radio. If this signal is identified, TP will appear in the display (Traffic Programme). In addition to these, there are also stations which do not actually transmit traffic information themselves, but by using RDS-EON it is possible for them to forward the traffic messages broadcast by another traffic programme station in the same radio network. If you want to have the priority for traffic announcements activated while listening to one of these stations (e.g. NDR3), TA must appear on the display panel. If a traffic announcement is broadcast, the radio will automatically switch to the linked traffic programme station (in this case, NDR2) for the duration of the message and return to the original programme (NDR3) afterwards.

The individual steps you have to take to make these settings are described in the following table.
The HIGH EQ and LOW EQ filters can be set in the DSC menu: Press DSC. Press / as often as necessary until HIGH EQ or LOW EQ appears in the display. Press << or >> once and set the level in the following table by pressing /. Press << >> to switch the frequency range.
Notes on making the settings
The following notes are intended as recommendations only. They do not necessarily reflect your own personal sound preferences. We recommend that you use a music CD you are familiar with to make the settings. The CD should include tracks with different instruments and vocals. Purely electronic music is not well suited to serve as a basis for making the settings because the original sounds cannot be determined. Before you set the equalizer, set bass, treble, balance and fader to 0 and switch the Loudness function off, if necessary. This setting is described in the Quick Reference under AUD. Now listen to the CD you have selected. Evaluate the sound according to your own personal preferences.
Now you can compare the sound produced by your car stereo with or without the equalizer.
Press DSC to store your settings. You can switch the equalizer on and off in the DSC menu using the EQ ON or EQ OFF option.
The acoustic characteristics of the car interior affect the quality of the sound reproduced in your vehicle to a much greater extent than the speakers.
These parametric filters can be adjusted to very exact settings even without the help of measuring instruments.
Now refer to Sound impression/problem in the table and you will find suggestions to eliminate any problems under What to do.
