RDS station service

RDS (Radio Data System) is an information system which is trans- mitted additionally by most FM stations.

When the hi-fi system is receiving an RDS station, the station name, for example »FANTASY«, and »f« appear in the display.

Note:

It may take some time before all the RDS information is available.

Searching for RDS stations

1To search for an RDS station, press »UP TUNING/ ALBUM DOWN« repeatedly until »f« appears in the display indicating that an RDS station is being received.

–After a short time the station name appears if the reception strength is sufficient.

RDS time synchronisation

Some RDS stations transmit an RDS time signal. If reception is good, this time information will update the time if you have selected the »CT ON« option.

Time synchronisation can take several minutes, and even with good reception the accuracy depends on the time signal being transmit- ted. The automatic time setting is always activated when the hi-fi system is switched from standby mode into tuner mode and receives a suitable RDS station (when the system is waiting for an RDS time signal, »￿« flashes. »￿« stays lit once RDS time synchronisation is complete).
