Using the Radio Data System (RDS) (European model only) 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. Note RDS may not work properly if the station you have tuned in is not transmitting the RDS signal properly or if the signal is weak. * Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor do they all 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 cyclically as follows: Station name** t Frequency t Clock display t Volume ** If the RDS broadcast is not properly received, the station name may not appear. 16GB
