Notes

Not all FM stations provide RDS services, nor do they provide the same type of services. If you are not familiar with the RDS system, check with your local radio stations for details on RDS services in your area.

RDS may not work properly if the station you tuned in is not transmitting the RDS signal properly or if the signal intensity is weak.

Before receiving RDS broadcasts

Be sure to preset the FM stations according to the procedure on page 19.

Receiving RDS broadcasts

Simply select a station from the FM band.

When you tune in a station that provides RDS services, “RDS” will be displayed.
