Using the RDS Functions

What is RDS?

RDS (Radio Data System) is a system for transmitting data along with FM
programs. This data, which is inaudible, provides a variety of features such
as: program service name, program type display, traffic announcement
standby, automatic tuning and program type tuning, intended to aid radio
listeners in tuning to a desired station.
Note:
• RDS service may not be provided by all stations.
• RDS functions, like AF (Alternative Frequencies search) and TA (Traffic
Announcement standby), are only active when your radio is tuned to RDS sta-
tions.

Program Service Name Display

With this function, the names of networks/stations providing RDS services
replace the frequency on the display a few seconds after they are tuned in.
• When you want to know PTY Information or the frequency of
the current station, change the display.
