Radio Data System (RDS)
The audio system has a Radio Data System (RDS).
RDS features are available for use only on FM stations
that broadcast RDS information. 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 on 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.
The RDS system is always on. When information is
broadcast from the FM station you are listening to, the
station name or call letters will be displayed on the
audio screen. RDS may provide a program type (PTY)
for current programming and the name of the program
being broadcasted.
