Setting RDS Reception Mode and Receiving RDS Stations

The RDS (Radio Data System) is a radio information system using the 57 kHz subcarrier of regular FM broadcast. The RDS allows you to receive a variety of information such as traffic information, station names, and to automatically re-tune to a stronger transmitter that is broadcasting the same programme.

1 Press the AF button to activate the RDS mode. The display shows "AF" when the RDS mode is activated.

2 Press the DN g or f UP button to tune in the desired RDS station.

NOTE

When the BAND button is pressed and held for more than 2 seconds while a station name is displayed, the display shows the station frequency for 5 seconds.

When the RDS station signal received has become weak:

AF seek mode, press and hold the AF button for at least 2 seconds to have the unit automatically seek for a stronger station in the AF list.

If there is no AF station, the display shows "SEEK END."

3 Press the AF button to deactivate the RDS mode.

Recalling Preset RDS Stations

1 Press the AF button to activate the RDS mode. The display shows "AF" when the RDS mode is activated.

2 Make sure that the function indicator at the top side of the "F" button illuminates, then press the preset button in which your desired RDS station is preset.

If the preset station's signal is weak, the unit automatically searches and tunes to a stronger station in the AF (Alternative Frequencies) list.

3 If the preset station and the stations in the AF list cannot be received:

Press the same preset button again within 5 seconds to have the unit search for a station in the PI (Programme Identification) list.

If there are still no stations receivable in the area, the unit displays the frequency of the preset station and the preset indicator disappears.

If the signal level of the Regional (Local) station being tuned becomes too weak to receive, press the same preset button to tune in a Regional station in other district.

NOTE

For presetting the RDS stations, refer to the Radio Operations section. The RDS stations can be preset in the F1 and F2 bands only.
