Using RDS
Your audio system is equipped with a Radio Data
System (RDS). RDS features are available for use only
on FM stations that broadcast RDS information. Using
this system, the radio can do the following:
D Seek to stations broadcasting the selected type
of programming,
D receive announcements concerning local and
national emergencies,
D display messages from radio stations, and
D seek to stations with traffic announcements.
This system relies upon receiving specific information
from these stations and will only work when the
information is available. In rare cases, a radio station
may broadcast incorrect information that will cause the
radio features to work improperly. If this happens,
contact the radio station.
When you are tuned to an RDS station, the station name
or call letters will appear on the display instead of the
frequency. RDS stations may also provide the time of
day, a program type (PTY) for current programming and
the name of the program being broadcast.
