Using the Radio Data

System (RDS)

(European model only)

What is the Radio Data System?

Radio Data System (RDS) is a broadcasting

service that allows radio stations to send

additional information along with the regular

program signal. This tuner offers convenient

RDS features like station name display and

location of stations by program type. RDS is

available only on FM stations.*

Note

RDS may not work properly if the station you are

tuned in 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, “RDS” appears in the display.

To check the RDS information

Each time you press DISPLAY, the display

changes as follows:

Frequency t RDS name* t RDS TEXT*

t RDS type* t Clock display (for five

seconds) t Frequency t ...

* If the RDS broadcast is not received, the RDS

name, RDS TEXT and RDS type may not appear in

the display.
