When an RDS station is received, “PS”, “PTY”, “RT” and/or “CT” that correspond to the RDS data services employed by the station light up on the display. By pressing the RDS MODE/FREQ button once or more, you can change the display mode among the RDS modes employed by the received station in the order shown below. (The RDS mode not employed by the station cannot be selected.) Illumination of the indicator on the head of a name of RDS mode shows that the corresponding RDS mode is now selected.
*When an RDS station is received, do not press the RDS MODE/FREQ button until one or some names of RDS modes light up on the display. If the button is pressed before one or some names light up on the display, the mode cannot be changed. This is because the unit has not received all of the RDS data on the station yet.
*If no name of RDS mode lights up on the display, the mode cannot be changed.

Notes
●RDS data service cannot be utilized by this unit if the received signal is not strong enough. Especially, the RT (Radio Text mode) needs much data to be received, so it may occur that RT mode cannot be displayed even if other RDS modes (PS, PTY, etc.) are displayed.
●There may be a case that RDS data reception is not possible due to poor reception conditions. If so, press the TUNING MODE button so that “AUTO” goes off from the display. Though the reception mode is changed to monaural by this operation, when you change the display to an RDS mode, RDS data may be displayed.
●If the signal strength gets weakened by external interference during receiving an RDS station, the RDS data service may be cut
...
off suddenly and “ WAIT” will light up on the display.
