RDS (Radio Data System)
RDS is a digital information system that lets you receive signals besides those
of regular radio programmes, such as network information being transmitted
from radio stations.
When listening to an RDS station (ie, a station with RDS capability), the
programme service name of the station is displayed along with the frequency,
advising you quickly which station is being received.
RDS (Radio Data System) stations also transmit frequency data for the same
station. When you are making long trips, this function automatically switches
to the particular frequency with the best reception for the particular network of
stations that you want to listen to. The data is automatically stored, allowing
you to switch quickly to another RDS stations, broadcasting the same
programme, that has better reception. These include stations stored in the
station preset memory that you often listen to.
EON (Enhanced Other Network)
Stations that offer EON also transmit information about other RDS stations that
have traffic information. When you are tuned to a station that is not
transmitting traffic information, but another RDS station starts transmitting a
traffic bulletin, the tuner automatically switches to the other station for the
duration of the bulletin.
Alarm
When an emergency transmission (announcing disasters, etc.) is sent, all
current functions are interrupted to allow the warning to be received.

News Bulletin Function with PTY News Timeout Setting
You can arrange to have news bulletins interrupt your current listening
source, including other radio stations. When the News Bulletin function is
on, the PTY News Timeout setting allows you to set the interval during
which further news interruption cannot take place. You can adjust the PTY
news interruption period from 10 to 90 minutes for each journey.
Changing the Timeout Setting:
Touch the [ < ] or [ > ] repeatedly until the desired setting is
displayed.
Touch the [ > ] to increase the interval, and the [ < ] to decrease it.
OFF ↔ 00min ↔ 10min ↔ 20min ↔ 30min ↔ 40min ↔ 50min
↔ 60min ↔ 70min ↔ 80min ↔ 90min
(min= minutes)
When you select the news interruption timeout interval, the News
function turns on and the NEWS indicator is displayed.
When a news bulletin is received, the colour of the NEWS indicator will
change from black to pink and reception will begin at the preset
volume.
• If you choose the " 20min " setting, further news bulletins will not be
received for 20 minutes once the first news bulletin is received.
Setting the interval at the "00min" factory default indicates no News
Timeout will be made, meaning that additional news bulletins will
continue to be searched for.
