do the following functions.
• Only selecting stations of a
particular program type
• Displaying messages from
radio stations

nal station
RBDS features are available

Using HD Radio™ tech-
nology
HD Radio™ Technology is the
digital evolution of analog
AM/FM radio. Your radio product
has a special receiver which
allows it to receive digital broad-
casts (where available) in addi-
tion to the analog broadcasts it
already receives. Digital broad-
casts have better sound quality
than analog broadcasts as digi-
tal broadcasts provide free,
crystal clear audio with no static
or distortion. For more informa-
tion, and a guide to available
radio stations and programming,
refer to www.hdradio.com.
HD Radio features included in
Toyota radios:
 Digital Sound-
HD Radio broadcasts deliver
crystal-clear, digital audio
quality to listeners.
 HD2/HD3 Channels-
FM stations can provide addi-
tional digital only audio pro-
gramming with expanded
content and format choices on
HD2/HD3 channels.
 PSD-
Program Service Data (PSD)
gives you on-screen informa-
tion such as artist name and
song title.
 Artist Experience-
Images related to the broad-
cast are displayed on the
radio screen, such as album
cover art and station logos.
