Radio Data System (RDS)
Your radio may have the Radio Data System (RDS)
feature. RDS is available for use only on FM stations
that broadcast RDS information. This system relies upon
receiving speciļ¬c information from these stations and
only works when the information is available. While the
radio is tuned to an FM-RDS station, the station
name or call letters display. In rare cases, a radio station
can broadcast incorrect information that causes the
radio features to work improperly. If this happens,
contact the radio station.
Playing the Radio
O(Power/Volume): Pressto turn the system
onand off.
Turnclockwise or counterclockwise to increase or
decreasethe volume.
Theradio goes to the previous volume setting when the
radiois turned on. The volume can still be adjusted by
usingthe volume knob.
Speed Compensated Volume (SCV): The radio has
SpeedCompensated Volume (SCV). When SCV is on,
theradio volume automatically adjusts to compensate for
roadand wind noise as you speed up or slow down while
driving.That way, the volume level should sound about
thesame as you drive. To activate SCV:
1. Set the radio volume to the desired level.
2. Press the MENU button to display the radio
setup menu.
3. Press the pushbutton under the AUTO VOLUM
(automatic volume) label on the radio display.
4. Press the pushbutton under the desired Speed
Compensated Volume setting (OFF, Low, Med,
or High) to select the level of radio volume
compensation. The display times out after
approximately 10seconds. Each higher setting
allows for more radio volume compensation at
faster vehicle speeds.
H(Clock): If your vehicle has an AM-FM radio, it has
a clock button for setting the time. With this type of
radio, the clock can be set with either the radio turned
on or off. see Setting the Clock on page3-60 for
more information.
