(d) Radio Data System
Your audio system is equipped with Radio
Data Systems (RDS). RDS mode pro-
vides you to receive text messages from
radio stations that utilize RDS transmit-
ters.
When RDS is on, the radio can
—only select stations of a particular pro-
gram type,
—display messages from radio stations,
—search for a stronger signal station,
—search for local stations broadcasting
the same network as the vehicle travels,
—receive announcements concerning lo-
cal and national emergencies (even if
RDS function is turned off).
RDS features are available for the use
only on FM stations which broadcast RDS
information.

"RDS SRCH" (RDS search) switch
This switch allows you to search all avail-
able RDS stations out of the entire FM
band and sort them by program type
(See following "TYPE" switch for details
on program types).
By touching this button at the FM mode,
RDS is turned on and the radio is
switched to FM type mode. During the
program type search, "RDS SEARCH" will
be shown on the screen. Also at this
time, "FM TYPE" will appear on the
screen to indicate that the station selec-
tor switches are for program type.
After searching for all the available RDS
stations, the radio will activate the pre-
viously used program type. If the pre-
viously used program type is not avail-
able, or if the radio has
performed a program type search, the
radio will activate the first available pro-
gram type that has stations in memory.
The radio will preset the stations of the
current program type into the preset but-
tons.
These are accessible through the "TYPE"
switch. If more than 6 stations are found,
the radio will load the 6 strongest sta-
tions signal of the program type into the
presets.
