If the remote control is not for the tuner operations, the button for the RDS operations—NEWS/INFO, PTY + and –, and PTY SEARCH—do not work. In this case, press FM/AM on the remote control so that the remote control can be used for the tuner operation.

About characters shown on the display

When the display shows PS NAME, or RT signals, the following characters are used.

The display cannot differentiate upper case and lower case letters and always uses upper case letters.

The display cannot show accented letters, “A” for instance, may stand for accented “A” like “Å, Ä, Ã, Á, À, Â, å, ä, ã, á, à, and â.”

Using the RDS (Radio Data System)

to Receive FM Stations

RDS allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their regular program signals. For example, the stations send their station names, as well as information about what type of program they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc.

When tuned to an FM station which provides the RDS service, the RDS indicator lights up on the display.

Then, the display shows its PS name.

Notes:

RDS is not available for AM broadcasts.

RDS may not operate correctly if the tuned station is not transmitting RDS signals properly or if the signal strength is weak.

Note:

If searching finishes at once, “PS NAME,” “RADIO TEXT,” and “PROG TYPE” will not appear on the display.
