Using the Radio Data System (RDS) (Only for the European models) What is the Radio Data System? Radio Data System (RDS) is a broadcasting service that allows radio stations to send additional information along with the regular program signal. This tuner offers convenient RDS features such as station name display. RDS is available only for 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 type 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. To check the RDS information Each time you press DISPLAY, the display changes as follows: t Station name* r Frequency r SOUND FIELD * If the RDS broadcast is not received, the station name may not appear in the display. Naming Preset Stations You can enter a name of up to 8 characters for preset stations. These names (for example, "XYZ") appear in the system's front panel display when a station is selected. Note that no more than one name can be entered for each preset station.
