Radio Data System (RDS) The audio system has a Radio Data System (RDS). RDS features are available for use only on FM stations that broadcast RDS information. With RDS, the radio can do the following: Playing the Radio Top Knob (Power/Volume): Press to turn the system on and off. Turn clockwise or counterclockwise to increase or decrease the volume. • Seek to stations broadcasting the selected type of programming. 4 (Information): • Receive announcements concerning local and national emergencies. For RDS, press to change what display while using RDS. The display options are station name, RDS station frequency, PTY, and the name of the program (if available). For XM™ (if equipped), press while in XM™ mode to retrieve four different categories of information related to the current song or channel: Artist, Song Title, Category or PTY, Channel Number/Channel Name. To change the default on the display, press until you see the desired display, then hold for two seconds. The radio produces one beep and the selected display is now the default. • Display messages from radio stations. • Seek to stations with traffic announcements. This system relies upon receiving specific information from these stations and works only when the information is available. In rare cases, a radio station can broadcast incorrect information that causes the radio features to work improperly. If this happens, contact the radio station. While the radio is tuned to an RDS station, the station name or call letters display. RDS stations can also provide the time of day, a program type (PTY) for current programming, and the name of the program being broadcast. AUTO n (Automatic Volume): Automatic volume automatically adjusts the audio system to make up for road and wind noise as you drive, by increasing the volume as vehicle speed increases. Set the volume at the desired level. Press this button to select AUTO VOLUME MIN (minimum), AUTO VOLUME MED (medium), or AUTO VOLUME MAX (maximum). 3-83
