Using RDS Mode
Your audio system is equipped with a Radio Data
System (RDS). RDS mode gives you many useful
new features. With RDS, the radio can do the following:
D
Seek only to stations with the types of programs
you want to listen to,
D
seek to stations with traffic announcements,
D
receive announcements concerning local and
national emergencies, and
D
receive and display messages from radio stations.
3-14
RDS features are only available on FM stations that
broadcast RDS information. The RDS features on your
radio rely on receiving specific RDS information from
these stations. These features will only work when the
RDS information is available. In rare cases, a radio
station may broadcast incorrect information that will
cause the radio features to work improperly. If this
happens, please contact the radio station.
When you are tuned to an RDS station, the station
name will appear on the display, instead of the
frequency. Most RDS stations provide their station
name, the time of day and a Program Type (PTY) for
their current programming.
-
P TYPE: This button is used to turn on and off
Program Type (PTY) select. The PTY icon and the
light next to the button will turn on. The last selected
PTY will appear on the display for five seconds.
-
Turn the P TYPE knob to select the PTY you want
to listen to. Press SEEK SCAN to find radio stations
for that PTY. The last PTY selected will be used to
seek or scan. If a station with the selected PTY is
not found, NONE FOUND will appear on the display.
-
If both P TYPE and TRAF are on, the radio will
search for stations with traffic announcements and the
selected PTY.
