Using the Radio Data System (RDS) (Models of area code AU1, TW2 only) This receiver allows you to use Radio Data System (RDS), which enables radio stations to send additional information along with the regular program signal. This receiver offers convenient RDS features, such as program service name display. Notes • RDS is operable only for FM stations. • Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor do they provide the same type of services. If you are not familiar with the RDS services in your area, check with your local radio stations for details. Receiving RDS broadcasts Simply select a station on the FM band using Direct Tuning (page 46), Automatic Tuning (page 46), or Preset Tuning (page 48). When you tune in a station that provides RDS services, "RDS" lights up and the program service name appears on the display. Note RDS may not work properly if the station you tuned to is not transmitting the RDS signal properly or if the signal strength is weak. Tip When a program service name is displayed, you can check the frequency by pressing DISPLAY repeatedly (page 43). 49GB
