Radio Data System Operations
Radio Data System
This unit has a built-in "Radio Data System"
decoder system that supports broadcast
stations transmitting "Radio Data System" data.
This system can display the name of the
broadcast station being received (PS) and can
automatically switch to the broadcast station
with the best reception as you move long
distances (AF switching).
Also, if a traffic announcement or programme
type is broadcast from an "Radio Data System"
station, no matter what mode you are in, this
broadcast is received.
Additionally, if EON information is received, this
information enables automatic switching of other
preset stations on the same network and
interruption of the station being received with
traffic information from other stations (TP). This
function is not available in some areas.
When using the "Radio Data System" function,
always set the radio to FM mode.
