tial code which was given to you on handover of your vehicle.

RADIO

Notes on radio reception

Your car radio receiver is subject to phenomena which do not affect domestic sets. Both amplitude modula-

tion (MW/LW) and frequency modulation (FM) reception are subject to various forms of interference which

are not a reflection on the quality of your set, but are due to the nature of the signals and the way in which

they are transmitted.

On MW/LW, interference may be noticed when passing underneath high voltage power lines or bridges or in

tunnels.

On FM, interference may be the result of distance from the transmitter, reflection of the signal by obstacles

(mountains, hills, buildings etc), or of being in a shadow area (an area which is not covered by a transmitter).

Selecting the radio

Press the "J" button.

Selecting a waveband

By short presses on the “J” button, you can select the FM1, FM2, FM3 and AM wavebands.

Automatic station search

Briefly press button “G” or “H” to search for the station immediately above or below. By continuing to press

the button in the direction selected, you will obtain continuous scrolling of the frequency.

The scrolling stops on the first station found immediately after you release the button.

If TA, traffic information programme, is selected, only stations broadcasting this type of programme are selected.

Searching for a station occurs first in “LO” sensitivity (selection of the most powerful transmitters) during

scanning of the waveband, then in “DX” sensitivity (selection of the weakest and most distant transmitters).

To scan the waveband in “DX” sensitivity, press twice on button “G” or “H”.

Manual station search

Press the “MAN” button.

Briefly press button “G” or “H” respectively to increase or reduce the frequency displayed.

By continuing to press the button in the direction selected, you will obtain continuous scrolling of the fre-

quency.

Scrolling stops as soon as you release the button.

Pressing the “MAN” button again returns you to automatic station search.

Automatic storing in memory of FM stations (autostore)

Press the “J” button for more than two seconds, to automatically store the 6 stations with the strongest signal

in FM. These stations are stored in the FM3 waveband.

- If it is not possible to find 6 stations, the remaining memories are empty.

Recall of stations stored in memory

For each waveband, briefly pressing the buttons “1” to “6” recalls the corresponding stored station.

RDS FUNCTION
