Using RDS
Your audio system is equipped with a Radio Data
System (RDS). RDS mode gives you many useful new
features. With RDS, the radio can do the following:
D Seek only to stations with the types of programs you
want to listen to,
D seek to stations with traffic announcements,
D receive announcements concerning local and
national emergencies, and
D receive and display messages from radio stations.
RDS features are only available for use on FM stations
which broadcast RDS information. The RDS features of
your radio rely upon receiving specific RDS information
from these stations. These features will only work when
the RDS 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 will appear on the display, instead of the
frequency. Most RDS stations provide their station
name, the time of day and a Program Type (PTY) for
their current programming.
Finding a PTY Station
P
-
TYPE (Program Type): This button is used to turn
on and off Program Type (PTY) selections. PTY and the
light next to the button will turn on. The last selected
PTY will appear on the display for five seconds.
Turn the P
-
TYPE knob to select the PTY you want to
listen to. Press the SEEK arrows to find radio stations
for the PTY you want to listen to. The last PTY selected
will be used for seek or scan modes. If a station with the
selected PTY is not found, NONE FOUND will appear
on the display. If both P
-
TYPE and TRAF are on, the
radio will search for stations with traffic announcements
and the selected PTY.
To use the PTY interrupt feature, press and hold the
P
-
TYPE button until you hear a beep on the PTY
you want to interrupt on. When you are listening to
a compact disc, the last selected RDS FM station will
interrupt play if that selected program type format
is broadcast.
