Playing The Radio - Pontiac Pursuit 2006 Owner's Manual

With RDS, the radio can do the following:
•
Seek to stations broadcasting the selected type of
programming
•
Receive announcements concerning local and
national emergencies
•
Display messages from radio stations
This system relies upon receiving specific information
from these stations and will only work when the
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, contact the
radio station.
While the radio is tuned to an RDS station, the
station name or call letters will appear on the display.
RDS stations may also provide the time of day, a
program type (PTY) for current programming, and the
name of the program being broadcast.
