This receiver offers you three convenient RDS features: Displaying the RDS information; Monitoring of traffic, news, or information programmes; and Locating a station by programme type. RDS is available only on FM stations.* Note RDS may not work properly if the station you are tuned to is not transmitting the RDS signal properly or if the signal strength is weak. * Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor do they provide the same types of services. If you are not familiar with the RDS system, check with your local radio stations for details on RDS services in your area. Receiving RDS broadcasts Simply select a station from the FM band. When you tune in a station that provides RDS services, the station name appears in the display. Displaying the RDS Information Press DISPLAY. Each time you press DISPLAY, the display advances one step through the following information. Information displayed You can: Station Name** Locate each station by name (e.g., WDR) instead of frequency. Frequency** Locate each station by frequency. Programme Type Locate a specific type of programme being broadcast. (See page 16 for the types of programmes you can select.) Radio Text Display the text messages sent by the RDS station.
