RDS station service

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

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

Note:

It may take some time before all the RDS information is avail- able.

Searching for RDS stations

1To search for an RDS station, press »5a« or »s6« 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 is sufficiently strong.

RDS time synchronisation

Some RDS stations transmit an RDS time signal. If the reception is good, this time information will update the time.

Time synchronisation can take several minutes, and even with good reception the accuracy depends on the time signal being transmit- ted. Automatic setting is always activated when the hi-fi is switched from standby to tuner mode and receives a suitable RDS channel.
