REG - regional programme  
Certain radio programmes are split up at  
times into regional programmes offering lo-  
cal information. The 1st programme broad-  
cast by NDR, for example, offers pro-  
grammes with different contents in the north-  
ern German states of Schleswig-Holstein,  
Hamburg and Lower Saxony at certain times  
of the day.  
But RDS offers you further advantages:  
AF - Alternative frequency

Note:  
In the DSC menu it is possible to block MW

The advantage of doing this is that only the  
required wavebands can be selected and it  
is no longer necessary to press BND so of-  
ten. If necessary, refer to the section on  
“DSC programming – AM ON or AM OFF”.  
For this to work properly you must have al-

play).  
Manual tuning with << >>  
You can also tune into a station manually.

sponding memory bank by pressing  
the BND button as many times as nec-  
essary until the desired bank appears  
in the display.  
You can switch between the memory banks  
I, II and T in order to store stations and re-  
call them later.  
Note:  
Should you attempt to store a station which  
has already been stored before on another  
memory bank, the corresponding preset

Along with their programmes, all traffic pro-  
gramme stations transmit a special carrier  
signal, which is decoded by your car radio.  
If this signal is identified, “T” will appear in

Note:  
As already mentioned, these functions are  
only supported by a limited number of RDS

In addition to these, there are also stations  
which do not actually transmit traffic infor-

it is possible for them to forward the traffic  
messages broadcast by another traffic pro-  
gramme station in the same radio network.  
Please note that several buttons have no

broadcast.  
Warning beep  
If you want to have the priority for traffic  
announcements activated while listening to  
one of these stations (e.g. NDR3), “A” must  
appear on the display panel.  
If you leave the reception area of the traffic  
programme station currently tuned into, you  
will hear a warning beep after approximate-  
ly 30 seconds.  
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.  
This alarm tone will also be emitted if you
