Display modes - FM

Your radio has four display modes for FM radio. These use data provided by broadcasters which is commonly known as RDS.

The Radio Data System (RDS) is a system in which inaudible digital information is transmitted in addition to the normal FM radio programme. RDS offers several useful features. The following are available on your radio:-

1. Press the Info button to cycle through the various modes.		1
a. Scrolling text	Displays scrolling text messages such
	as artist/track name, phone in number,
	etc.
b. Programme Type	Displays type of station being listened to
	e.g. Pop, Classic, News, etc.
c. Time and date	Displays current time and date.
d. Frequency	Displays the frequency of the station
	being listened to.

If there is no RDS data available (or if the signal is too weak) then the radio will display only the FM frequency and the optional Stereo indicator.
