not familiar with the RDS services in your area,
check with your local radio stations for details.
• RDS may not work properly if the station you
tuned to is not transmitting the RDS signal
properly or if the signal strength is weak.

the display.
• If a station does not provide a particular RDS
service, “No XX” (such as “No Clock Time”)
appears on the display.
• When a station broadcasts radio text data, it is
displayed at the same rate at which it is sent from
