ers additional FM inf
ormation such

ation name
, automatic
station tracking (AF), texts broadcast by radio
(Radio text), traffic announcements (TP) and

In general, no radio data services are avail-
able without RDS.
Station name and automatic station track-
ing
If the RDS function is available, the names of
the stations can be displayed on the RADIO
main menu and on the Station list .
FM stations temporarily transmit other con-
tent on different regional frequencies under
the same name (for example, Station 3).
In general, automatic station tracking takes
charge of switching to the frequency with the
best reception of the station that is tuned at
any given time, while driving. However, this
may cause a regional broadcast to be inter-
rupted.
Automatic frequency switching and automat-
ic station tracking can be deactivated in FM

tional information in text, the so-called radio
text.
