Using the Radio Data
System (RDS)
(European model only)
What you can do with RDS
The Radio Data System (RDS) is a
broadcasting service that allows radio stations
to send additional information along with the
regular radio programme signal. This tuner
offers you three convenient RDS features:
Displaying the RDS information; Monitoring
traffic, news, or information programmes; and
Locating a station by programme type. RDS is
available only on FM stations.*
Note
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.
* Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor do
they provide the same types of services. If you are
not familiar with the RDS system, check with your
local radio stations for details on RDS services in
your area.
Receiving RDS broadcasts
Simply select a station from the FM band.
When you tune in a station that provides RDS
services, the RDS indicator and the station
name appears in the display.
