Audio cassettes
Cassettes are subjected to high temperatures
during car radio operation. Therefore use only
high-quality heat-resistant C60 and C90 cas-
settes from name-brand manufacturers.
Radio reception conditions
VHF (FM) reception
Reception conditions change constantly while
you are driving.
Mountains, buildings or bridges can all
disturb reception.
This is particularly true when you are farther
away from the station.
Radio Data System (RDS)
RDS is an information system the signals of
which are broadcast along with the FM radio
station programme.
Programme service
So that
you see what you are listening to!
With RDS programmes, you see the abbrevi-
ated name of the programme in the display,
e.g. " BAYERN 3 "
which stands for Bayerischer Rundfunk –
Programme 3.
Please note that RDS programmes can have
different re
gional stations and programme
names.
Alternative frequencies
An RDS programme is broadcast by several
stations, each with a different broadcast
frequency (alternative frequencies).
You select an RDS programme and your car
radio will always tune to a station with an
alternative frequency giving best reception of
the same RDS programme.

have tuned in an RDS programme without
traffic announcements.
