Receiving RDS
broadcasts
(Europe, Australia and Taiwan
models only)
This receiver allows you to use Radio Data
System (RDS), which enables radio
stations to send additional information
along with the regular programming signal.
This receiver offers convenient RDS
features, such as Program Service name
display. RDS is available only for FM
stations.*
* Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor
do they provide the same type of services. If
you are not familiar with the RDS services in
your area, check with your local radio stations
for details.
Simply select a station on the
FM band.
When you tune to a station that provides
RDS services, the Program Service name*
appears on the TV screen and the display
panel.
* If an RDS broadcast is not received, a Program
Service name will not appear.
• RDS may not work properly if the station you
tuned to is not transmitting the RDS signal or if
the signal strength is weak.
• Some letters that can be displayed on the TV
screen cannot be displayed on the display panel.
While a Program Service name is displayed, you
can check the frequency by pressing DISPLAY
repeatedly (page 71).
