Using RDS Functions

What is RDS?

RDS (Radio Data System) is a system for transmitting data along with FM programs. This data, which is inaudible, provides a variety of features such as: program service name, pro- gram type display, traffic announcement standby, automatic tuning and program type tun- ing, intended to aid radio listeners in tuning to a desired station.

Note:

RDS service may not be provided by all stations.

RDS functions, like AF (Alternative frequencies search) and TA (Traffic Announcement standby), are only active when your radio is tuned to RDS stations.

Program Service Name Display

With this function, the names of networks/stations providing RDS services replace the fre- quency on the display a few seconds after they are tuned in.

• When you want to know PTY Information or the frequency of the current station, change the display.
