AM-FM Radio

Radio Data System (RDS)
The Radio Data System (RDS)
feature is available for use only
on FM stations that broadcast RDS
information. This system relies upon
receiving specific information from
these stations and only works when
the information is available. While
the radio is tuned to an FM-RDS
station, the station name or call
letters display. In rare cases, a radio
station could broadcast incorrect
information that causes the radio
features to work improperly. If this
happens, contact the radio station.
Finding a Station
BAND: Press to switch between
AM, FM, or XM. The selection
displays.
(Tune): Turn to select radio
stations.
SEEK : Press to go to the
previous or to the next station and
stay there.
To scan stations, press and
hold or until a beep sounds.
The radio goes to a station, plays
for a few seconds, then goes to the
next station. Press either arrow
again to stop scanning.
The radio only seeks and scans
stations with a strong signal that
are in the selected band.
