Notes

When an RDS station is broadcasting, do not press FREQ/RDS until one or more mode indicators light up in the CinemaStation Display. If you press FREQ/RDS before the mode indicators light up, CinemaStation may not be able to change modes.

RDS information not provided by a station cannot be selected.

If the RDS station’s signal transmission is too weak, CinemaStation may not be able to use the service fully. In particular, radio text uses a lot of bandwidth, so it may not be available even when other modes are selectable.

RDS information may not transmit under poor conditions. In this case, press AUTO/MAN’L to set CinemaStation to Manual Tuning mode. This changes reception to monaural and may help RDS information reappear when you switch to RDS display mode.

If outside interference disrupts an RDS station broadcast, RDS information may suddenly disappear and “...WAIT ” appears in the CinemaStation Display.
