The Radio Data System (RDS) is a

broadcasting service that allows radio stations

to send additional information along with the

regular programming signal. This tuner offers

convenient RDS features, such as station name

display. RDS is available only for FM

stations.*

* Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor do

they provide the same type 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.

Simply select a station from the FM

band.

When you tune to a station that provides RDS

services, the station name* appears on the TV

screen and in the display window.

* If an RDS broadcast is not received, a station name

will not appear in the display window.

Note

Some letters that can be displayed in the display

window cannot be displayed on the TV screen.

Tip

While a station name is displayed, you can check the

frequency by pressing DISPLAY MODE on the

receiver repeatedly.
